Reviews

Went here on my lunch break last night, and the lady at the front was the sweetest.
I already planned to write a review because of how amiable she was, and then I saw this little sticker on my plate. She answered all of my questions and was very attentive.
I got the Enchiladas George, which I've never had before, and it was delicious.
They were fast and it was fresh.
I ordered it to go, so I didn't really look throughout the restaurant, but it looked more spacious on the inside and they played different music from what you typically hear.
Next time I want to try their juice!

Service was excellent.
Keep in mind, this is a small place and it may be a bit slower at busy times.
Food is better & more interesting than your typical Mexican/ South American restaurant.
Menu is excellent with a wide variety of choices.
About a min away from the highway, so it's an easy stop during transit (*not fast-food).
For some authentic South of the border food, it's worth the extra 20min drive from Chattanooga.

Stopped in at an odd time (3 PM) as it was a short walk from an AirBNB we were staying at.
I ordered three tacos al pastor with onions and cilantro (one of my favorite tacos), they were very quick and staff was friendly.
The tacos were very good, their hottest salsa was moderately hot with good flavor.
If I lived in this part of Chattanooga this would probably be a regular go-to for me.
