“ Well I can actually say that I have found an amazing mexican gem in Dalton Georgia, where you can get some of the best authentic Mexican tacos and Huraches in the area. Not to mention the food is also very authentic! The dinning room is reminiscing of my travels to Mexico and the service staff and cooks are all very helpful and knowledgeable on all the menu items. I had 2 carnes asada and one chicken flour tortilla tacos. All 3 were super deliciosos...however my ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE Was the hurache with carne asada..these huaraches are served on a homemade fried masa dough topped with refried beans, with a variety of toppings including green salsa, onions, cilantro, lettuce, aguacato and then finished with magic... queso fresco and crema.... OH MY OH MY!!! the combination of ingredients makes for a perfect dish!!! the steak meat was perfectly seasoned and oh soooo juicy!!! The chicken was they best seasoned to perfection and not dry. All three tacos are served with the traditional fresh cilantro and onion and a side of lime. As I think and write about them I want one!!!! Lol then I had the chicken stew, and steak with peepers lunch special which comes with tortillas, rice & refried beans. The stew chicken was savory just i felt a bit bland but still was very good. The steak n peppers... omg yes!!! It was perfecto! However, the rice and refried beans were bland and definitely something I can do without next time. ”
“ If you are expecting Anglo tex-mex here, don't bother. This is pretty close to Mexican street food as your going to find in Georgia. The service is delightful, the atmosphere is frenetic, it can get loud because it's a busy place. The food, my God the food! It is so good. We tried a half a dozen things on the menu our first time. We need to go back many times to try it all. If you want to eat like the locals, eat here. If you want what your used to find one that has Mexican Restaurant in the title. ”
“ Amazing place for REAL Mexican food It literally tastes like home, it's amazing The tacos, sopes, gorditas and everything I would 100% recommend this place if you want to try real Mexican food or just remember your homecountry for a moment Not expensive at all ”
“ Amazing tacos! I had 2 asada, 2 pastor, and 2 chorizo tacos and they were all really good. Out of the 3 my favorite one was the asada tacos. I did find the chorizo tacos to be too greasy. The green salsa was the best of all the salsas they offered. Only downside is you can't get a cup of water they give you a bottle of water instead. ”
“ So good must try the light green sauce it's the best ”
“ This was a challenge when going in to order food unless you are multi lingual. They only spoke Spanish so thank God for translator apps on my phone. The girls were extremely friendly though. ”
“ I am a truck driver from CALI, best service and really good food, the cup of soup was amazing( made me remember mom’s cooking. We’ll definitely keep this place on the book to come back. ”
“ The food is so delicious and has lots of flavor ”
