Testimonials

On 12/6/2025 Tony Stone had this to say:
Stopped in for early dinner. Greeted at once and seated. Was brought a good sized basket of chips (house made) and salsa ( house made, could have had a little more cilantro) Ordered El Moro Chimichanga. 12 inch tortilla stuffed with pork and I mean stuffed!! Wife had Seafood chimi, which was stuffed. Guacamole on mine was house made. Was a little skeptical because of some of the reviews. Service was great, pop and tea refills provided. Prices in line with other similar establishments. Food was good. We will return.
