    I like their whole chicken family deal with adobado chicken. It is delicious! We even ordered it for thanksgiving. The handmade tortillas here are my favorite of all (even my mom's). The ladies there are very nice when they ring up your order.

    In love with their food. Great prices and you get a lot of food. They have the best homemade drinks and they're very family friendly.

    When looking for regional cuisine, go where the natives go. When I walked in, I was the only non-hispanic person in the place-- a very good sign!

    Wow, what a departure from the American-Mexican restaurants on Provo center. Very inexpensive, truely authentic, and you get a large plate of food. I got the beef enchiladas at the recommendation of the staff, despite not liking corn tortillas that much, and it was fantastic. The slightly citrus-y sauce was great and very refreshing. Rice and beans were typical, and the salsa has a bit too much cilantro for my taste, but overall a very satisfying meal. I'll definitely be back!

    We came here based on the good reviews this place has only to leave not only disappointed, but mad. They were extremely rude to us and the food was gross. I’m Mexican and been to lots of restaurants in the area, and this one by far is the worst. My plate was supposed to come with avocado, but it didn’t so I asked for it and this is what they brought(see picture). Worst 20 bucks spent ever!

    I had the fish tacos and they were really great. I also love their fresh fruit drunks and their condiment bar. If you're looking for authentic Mexican food this is the place to find it.

    This is the best Mexican food in Utah! I recommend this to anyone I can.

    I've missed this. Haven't been back here in almost 10 years and it's even better than I remember.

    Authentic, saboroso. And the proprietors are super nice.

    I went here for the first time today, so I was unfamiliar with their menu. They make you order up at the front of the restaurant, I felt very rushed and that the staff was impatient with me ordering. Their menu was confusing and hard to read. I ordered their mole borrito. It looks like straight up diarrhea. It tasted awful!!! I am not a picky eater by any means but it was terrible!! I asked if I could get something else and they said no that I would have to pay. They also forgot to bring my daughter her food and were irritated when I reminded them. Plus it was hot as hell in there. Never going back. I can not relate to any of the positive reviews.

    I was really surprised by my experience here. After reading all the great reviews I was excited to try this place. As you can tell by my star rating, I was disappointed. The service there was TERRIBLE. They got my order wrong and when I asked them to fix it, they said it was my fault and that they wouldn't give me what I ordered. I would never eat what they brought me so, I'm sure I didn't order wrong. But, that is beside the point. They were very condescending when I told them about my order. They also forgot to bring my daughter her food. When I reminded them, 10 minutes after they brought my food, they said they were still working on it..It was a side of rice and beans They must have been waiting for the rainy season to hit so they could harvest the rice in the rice field. I didn't eat my meal because I don't like what they brought me, but my sister said her food didn't taste very good. I'll take her word for it. I guess I will stick to getting my Mexican food from the more ethnic parts of Utah. I should've known better than getting Mexican food in Provo

    The manager/ owner is very rude. The food is good but we have not gone back ever since the owner was very rude, all because HIS employees forgot to write down the name of a take out order. Blamed it on us and even yelled at us.

    This place has some really good Mexican food. I really liked the Monterey Chicken dish and the tortillas are great. The prices are reasonable and their drinks are homemade.

    We did have an issue with 2 of the staff being too stingy on how many tortillas they provided us with for our fajitas. They we quite confrontational and kept insisting they charge us for more tortillas even though it was their mistake and they didn't provide us with the correct number of tortillas from the start. If I had any advice to the restaurant, I'd just recommend training staff on customer service and satisfaction.

    This place has been a favorite of ours for many years. My wife and I make a point of coming here every time we're in Provo even though we move to Salt Lake a couple years ago. My favorite dish is the cochinita tacos with a mango salsa but one other exceptional.. offering is called The Rock and that is awesome if you have a group of friends that you want to impress with some really good food the service here is exceptional with waitresses that are very attentive and very pleasant so when you come make sure you tip them well and also tip the cook. They will remember the next time you come. At this point we get VIP treatment the moment we walk in the door.
