I had the shredded chicken chimichanga and my husband had beef enchiladas. We were both pleased with our meal. My husband never cleans his plate but he did this time. The service was very attentive.

The food was really good and came out hot. We stopped by on a Monday evening and got seated right away. The guacamole dip had a nice little kick to it and was super tasty. The chicken fajita nachos were amazing. The chicken was seasoned just right. They have Coke products for drinks. The margarita machine was down, but the menu had a bunch of flavors that sounded great, and the prices were super reasonable. Very nice atmosphere. They had multiple TVs playing sports.

First time and it did not disappoint. Love the atmosphere, service and food. I had the Chinichanga and it was great! Our chips and salsa was refilled quickly and we were checked on by 3 different people. It was a great first time; we will be back!

We came to town for a different Mexican restaurant but they were closed. So we decided to give this place a try and I am so glad we did. The chips and salsa were so good that I just knew i was going to like the main course. I ordered a Poblano Relleno and 2 Street tacos. Wow....the poblano was perfection and the street tacos were so good! My brother and husband ordered the Ranchito Dinner...I think it was called that. It was a platter of cheese enchiladas smothered in roast beef seasoned with green chilies and seasonings with beans a d rice on the side. They both loved it!! We are pretty particular about our Mexican food, so to go to a place that is too good to be true, thats a dream. Dont wake me up....

This is a great Mexican restaurant with an expansive menu. This is a family run restaurant by a family who loves great food, and they share it with all who eat here! If you want great Mexican food, it is well worth the short drive to Mulvane. If you live in Mulvane, you're lucky.
