    Fast service, they kept our drinks and chips full. Excellent food with BIG portions and good prices. The Margaritas looked massive but we weren't drinking, maybe next time. We really enjoyed it.

    Margaritas the size of your face and hit like a truck so make sure you order something to go with it. Not to worry though you can order anything off the menu and cant go wrong!

    My mom and I honestly had a great time here. It was busy but not waiting for a table busy. The view across the road to the South shore of Superior was perfect! We got chips and salsa right away and then shared the enchiladas for two. It was massive and super tasty. Thought the prices were very reasonable and the staff was so so so kind.

    Direct views of Lake Superior, fabulous food, and incredible prices! What's not to love? It was Sunday night in Ashland, and we got to town at dinner time. The restaurant was a mile from our hotel, and what a lucky break. I had Arroz con Pollo, chicken and rice, my husband had the el pastor tacos. He took a bite, and froze. I thought something was wrong with the food. He used his dreamy voice and said "these are sublime!"

    I've stopped at and eaten at the other location in Ironwood MI many times, so I stopped at this location to give it a go. The employees were very courteous and polite. The food was done earlier than I expected, and it all was very delicious! The view inside is great, you can see the lake that is right across the street, beautiful. Very happy with my stop here.

    We visited here for the first time on September 12, 2024, and at first, we weren't sure it was open because there weren't any cars parked there. But we pulled in and saw the Open sign, so we decided to stop in and eat. The staff was quick to greet us and very friendly! The restaurant has a great view (aside from being across the street from the lake) but it still was nice! The restaurant wasn't busy at all, we were one of 3 groups there. Service was very quick! I liked that the beers were served in chilled glasses! The chips and salsa was good! However, the food could have been better. I ordered a combo plate, which had a taco, tostada, and enchilada. There was too much sour cream and beans on my tostada, which made it soggy and not able to be picked up, the enchilada was luke warm, and the beef taco was bland. He enjoyed his enchilada plate, though, so maybe it was just the type of combo plate I ordered. Overall, we enjoyed eating here, I just wish the food would've been better. I still recommend stopping in to eat here though because it was a nice atmosphere!

    Service was lightning fast and attentive. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. I had shrimp tacos with rice and beans. The shrimp was fresh and cooked perfectly. The beans and rice were good, and a larger portion than what you'd normally see at most Mexican restaurants. Both my kids liked their meals as well. Great food, great service, great value. My kind of place.
