Our story

I went here for the first time with my friend since it came highly recommended. It was a little hard to find at night because it's not very well lit. However, the food was exceptionally authentic! I felt like I was back in Mexico. I ordered the horchata and the taquitos and they came out looking just like they did when I would order them in Jaurez. I was happy as a clam! And the prices are incredibly reasonable. Service was fantastic!!

I have been meaning to try this spot for a while. It's very unassuming from outside, and it's right on University, off Pulaski. As you walk in you'll notice everyone speaking Spanish, and the whole place smells delicious. Service was great, we got large margaritas and fajitas, and it was all so flavorful, the plates were huge, and everything was so good I can't wait to visit again. The menu is full of seafood options, and it's a very long listing, so if you like seafood you should try it.

One of our favorite places! We drive all the way from Madison to come eat here when my husband is off. Best fried shrimp I've ever had - but ask for the head on version. The head off is tempura shrimp from Costco. Their ceviche is wonderful! Just wish they had chips and salsa.

Easily some of the best shrimp dishes I've had. All down the baja coast you can have food like this, but here in Huntsville? Perfectly cooked and flavored? Amazing. Shout out to their fresh juice bar too (wife loves it).
