Every thing is made fresh daily. No can to pan operation. Home made fresh daily. You have got to try the buffet. Everything is great. Flour tortillas will be brought to your table on request, no extra charge. Guacamole free on request with buffet. Premium ice cream on request with buffet. Some of the best sweet tea I have ever had any where. All u can eat fajitas quesadillas and other wonderful Mexican foods. Tacos , make ur own as many and any combination you want. Cheese covered Poblano peppers with a small cheese strip inside are a treat, tangy sometimes, but really hot. The servers are very friendly, but sometimes are too spread out with large crowds. It is a completely different experience from ur typical Tex- Mex food. Its a little hard to find but well worth the reward.

Dont do it!! Been here twice in the early evening with my ten year old daughter. No discount on the buffet for children and the food has been out for a long time. Buffet is $12 and truly not worth it. My daughter eats three things on the buffet so its a terrible deal along with cold food. In fact, last time (which is the last time Ill go) I had a stomachache that night and that sealed the deal. Also, the staff could care less about the customers. Margaritas were lemonade.

I visited for the lunch buffet, and was pleasantly surprised. It doesnt look like much from the outside, but the selection on the buffet was pretty good. Everything seemed very fresh and the dining room wasnt overcrowded. If there is a certain item youre looking for, it may be out since the good stuff goes quick. As far as I know, this is the only Mexican buffet in town anymore. Its easy to be best when youre the only game in town!

AMAZING! Such a great place, better than any other Mexican eatery around! The food is always fresh and the buffet area is always clean! They have the best selection!!! I introduced my parents to this place and now all they ever want to do is go here for everything...birthdays, anniversaries, date night...lol. My husband and even my four year old loves it! They always have us leaving there full, happy, and satisfied!

We've only lived in the area for about 2 years and stumbled upon this yummy spot about a year ago. My husband loves it. Myself being Mexican American find it very close to true authentic Mexican Cuisine. The People are very nice and are very accommodating. The Price is a bit higher than I'd like but it is definitely worth it! We've gone several times. Looking forward to going back again!

Very tasty place to eat. The buffet has a lot of options and can get a little crowded walking through, but its well worth sucking in a little to pass someone. The wait staff are very efficient and nice. They are constantly checking the buffet for stuff running low. The desserts are tasty. Wednesday is kids night so for families it is a good night to go.

Love this place great Mexican food! Its a buffet but they also have a complete menu if you prefer. Guacamole, salsa, chips and corn& flour tortillas are all brought to fresh! Dont miss the soups they are all great! On Friday they have crawfish, large fried shrimp, fried fish and a wonderful seafood soup with blue crab in it!

Great prices for the awsome variety of food including hot tamales chiles rellenos and fried tilapia and menu items as well. ... they have white queso which is realllyyy good! And that tres leches cake and fresh sopapillas are the bomb. And lets not forget the aguas frescas and the soups. Soo gooood! Must Try it !

Not Good At All. Went there on day to try it, ate only half my plate and said this is not worth it. Also priced kinda high considering i didnt really eat anything. Very small also, no room to move when at buffet. Other reviews say that this is what authentic Mexican food really taste like, I dont think so.

Food is good, some good variety, even sopapias for dessert, the staff is very friendly (wait staff). Not there problem but too bad you cant request the next table to be civilized and not play their stupid screaming video inside....Cant stand stupid or such disrespectful trash. Buffet is pricey.

We went here last night and were dissapointed. We wont be going back. The food was over priced and not very good. On Monday and Tuesday, there are 2 for 1 Margaritas. Well, theyre that price for a reason. They werent good and they tasted like they were watered down. It was very dissapointing.

A slightly different kind of Mexican buffet, but one I enjoy. The service is cold, but efficient, while the food always seems to be hot and fresh. Their secret is they dont put a lot out in the trays at one time so the food doesnt have time to dry out before theyre putting a fresh tray out.

The worst place in Baton Rouge April 22 8pm walk in and Im met at the door by a rude middle Eastern man whom was on a tablet that said I will be a minute he didnt look at me Below standard food and far too expensive a place I dont have to go back to over priced

We love this place! Im so glad we dont live within 5 minutes of this place otherwise we would all be in horrible shape...the round shape. The food is great and there is lots of it! So many different dishes that you can mix and mash just like you want.

This place is some great, authentic Mexican food. This is not Tex Mex, this is the real deal. The buffet is priced excellent. The building is older and it shows in the dining area but it is very clean. Id let the food speak for itself.

I love the food .Is authentic Mexican food. Prices are reasonable. I moved from california and out here in louisiana, theres no good authentic Mexican restaurant until I went here. My favorite is the carnitas plate .

The owners are beautiful Christian people . They do everything possible to make your experience experience nice. We drive all from Covington at least 5 times a month to eat here. The food is always fresh and hot.

This place is awesome. All you can eat Mexican just got better here. The food is great. Its the best Mexican food Ive ever had in my 25 years, being as Ive never really eaten authentic Mexican.
