I heard they returned to Cranston and I was excited to stop by. I have been here a few times for takeout and needed to try dining in. Overall the experience was wonderful from the waiters to the chefs. We had a great experience. All the food was really fresh. I could taste it in their ingredients because nothing felt watery,dry, or over salted to preserve the food’s freshness. We ordered the horchata (highly recommended and the taste is still the same), the hibiscus tea, torta de carnita, and asada quesadilla. The torta de carnita is a dish you need to try. The bread is so buttery and acts like a pillow to the pork loin.

Good sized portions that won't break your budget. Tasty food. The basket of tortilla chips is served warm with a salsa that has a little kick. 5/31/22 another great meal. My friend had pork tacos. I had the appetizer sampler - well, about half of it. 8/16/22 I tried the jumbo shrimp, mushrooms and onions with a side of rice. Delicious.

I never ever do this! But if I can give someone an insight on a restaurant let me just tell you. PLEASE GO ELSEWHERE! such a disappointment 1.virgin margaritas 2. Ordered mixed fajitas, got chicken 3. Ordered carne asada came out colder than Alaska in December + never gave me my " Mexican coleslaw" 4. Waiter is arguing with chick on the side of me on prices of margaritas. 5. Queso literally tasted burnt.. like been sitting there forever, like I said I never leave a bad review as I work in the food industry myself, but if I could I would give this place a negative review. this place is god awful please do yourself a favor and take your money elsewhere PLEASE ????
