Bill GApril 19, 2014Mediocre tourist Mexican. The push you in and push you out. Service was friendly but kind if fake. Screwed up our order but they made it right. Has to be better places here!

Andrew MasihJune 30, 2016pro-margaritas, outdoor seating, atmosphere, service. Cons-everything else. Food is SOOO bad. Tourist trap, never go. it's Cali how can mex food be THIS bad
Michael LiuJanuary 30, 2010They sell fresh corn and flour tortillas in front of the restaurant. Great for a snack.
Kyra KilianNovember 25, 2018It’s ok. The little “free” quesadilla they give you is a joke. Might be ok for a toddler. No flavor at all.
Lindsey Arneson-MoodyNovember 18, 2011The flautas are over-fried (burned is more a appropriate adjective) and the hand-made tortillas are too thick and flavorless.
oh my goodness the Puerto nuevo lobster special in november is sooooo good.
