I'm not going to lie I didn't have high hopes when we pulled up but was very surprised the food was great they know how to cook the Eggs and the sauce was not too spicy just right and the rice my wife order was really tender and soft good flavor staff was very friendly but forgetful but that's ok

I don't really like any restaurants in Big Spring, but this place is actually good. The menudo is wonderful, the staff is kind and the barbacoa was delicious!!!! I'll be dreaming about that soup until I return.

Fantastic. Food was fresh, hot, excellent flavor. The salsa stood out immediately. Tacos de Carne asada were great. Horchata was great too. I highly recommend it if you're in the area.

I had an enchilada plate de res with red enchilada sauce. It was very good. Their service was good. Chips and salsa on the house. I ordered a side order of tortillas. They were home made. Only thing I did not like is they serve only bottled water. No refills on water. The enchilada plate was 8.99. The food reminded me of the Mexican restaurants in Laredo. The water is only 1. It was good for the money I spent.

The salsa was wonderful. All the dishes were hot and delicious. Will definitely stop by again when we drive through town. The servers were very sweet. The restaurant was rather quiet. Parking was kinda crazy and the bathrooms could use a little maintenance.
