What a wonderful restaurant to discover on Father’s Day. Our server, Jenn is an absolute gem, met us with a smile and took care of us very well. The food is delicious, not bland and not too spicy. Portions are large and generous. The atmosphere is Mexican with comfortable seating at booths or tables. Servers are dressed very nicely with ties, long sleeved white shirts and black pants. If you enjoy Mexican food and atmosphere don’t miss this restaurant in Ocala Fl.

UPDATE 12/26/24: Maria is absolutely our favorite server and her service is super friendly. If you hate pleasant talk, ask for someone else or tell her upfront. As always, food is consistently excellent. Flavors on par with authentic Mexican cuisine. They have amazing flavors. My favorite is the beef (steak) and chicken fajitas. Still haven't found a menu item we dislike or is a little off. Come to the best place in Marion County that we can find! OLDER POST: Finally found the Mexican food that makes us happy. Neat place, great service. Food does not disappoint at all. The food is flavorful. They do offer homemade sauces to spice it up. You can get them in the food or on the side. I suggest on the side. The bar had all the typical items a Mexican restaurant should offer. I've tried the house margarita and the mojito. Both were excellent. We have been here twice as of this post. Both visits were consistent. Come check them out! UPDATE 10/14/23: Service was stellar. Introduced our nephew to it, he couldn't stop raving about it. He had the shrimp chimichanga. We shared our dishes as well. The mole sauce is recommended. We have not found a dish we don't like.
