Everything about our first visit was top notch. The atmosphere was welcoming, the music was not too loud, our waitress, Aby, was kind and efficient .And the food?! Delicious !! The homemade salsa that came before our meals was the perfect temperature, not too spicy and not too mild.The presentation of the food was nicely done, also.We will definitely be back.
Our first visit.They have complimentary chips and salsa.We had chile relleno, chicken with a mole sauce and freshly made guacamole.We had churros for dessert.I asked for a hotter salsa and they had some.The food was good and fairly authentic for this far north (I'm from Texas). We did BYOB.We asked that they turn down the authentic Mexican music and they did.Service was good.Could have been more professional. They were full-up from 6:30 to 7PM on this Tuesday night. We will certainly return.We thought the food was quite tasty and not bland.Prices seem to be in line, though rice and beans cost pennies.They could use better cuts of chicken than drumsticks and one medium-sized chile relleno was a rather meager portion. The Guacamole was soupy.It tasted good but for some reason had liquid in it.
I love Mexican food, so I was excited to see this new addition open in Oxford.Casual atmosphere and friendly staff. Complimentary chips and salsa when you are seated.My boyfriend ordered the fajitas, and I was surprised to see they only came with rice and beans.Usually fajitas are served with cheese, and sour cream, guacamole and/or salsa, or other toppings.Sour cream is listed on the menu as a side for $2 and guacamole $5.Guacamole is usually an additional charge at most restaurants, but I was surprised to see sour cream as well.Especially since it is such a commonly ordered item. I got the Birria tacos, which were crispy, cheesy and flavorful.We ended the meal with churros which were delicious. *Of note, no liquor license yet, so only soft drinks and virgin pina coladas/margaritas are served.
