Best Texmex I've found in the Birmingham area! I came from Texas where there's a high bar set on Mexican food,.and this place pleasantly surprised me. The enchiladas, burritos, & fajitas are all top-notch! I always get one of their combo platters, which are very reasonably priced...but another fave is the quesadilla dinner. It's got their delicious cheese sauce poured over it. MMM The staff is super friendly & it's got a nice, cozy feel to the dining room. The prices are pretty reasonable too. Highly recommend! Get a pitcher of margaritas if you go
