Very poor service, we went on Sunday evening at about 5pm with our quiet well behaved 1.5 year old (yes I realize that sounds crazy but its true). We were seated and noticed that the restaurant was not very busy. We were given menus and left to sit for 10-15 minutes with no sign of anyone coming to get our drink order or food order for that matter. We decided to leave since we didnt have the kind of time to wait for them to come and take our order if this was how slow things were going to go. As we got up and left and the hostess that seated us didnt even so much as say a word to us. I would have almost preferred they just turned us away at the door than waste our time with whatever this was..... passive denial of service, incompetence, stupidity, etc..

Worst Mexican food I have EVER had. They should be ashamed serving mole sauce that tastes like this. Not to mention the steep cost that came with it. (Why on earth would the vegetable dishes cost MORE than those that contain meat?!). Warning: they will also bring you chips, that in most restaurants come with your meal for free, and then charge you an astronomical $4.50 for them even though you never requested them in the first place!!! The only saving grace this restaurant has is its back patio, but then again, there were mice scurrying around our feet the entire time we were eating outside. Would not recommend supporting this establishment.

As an actual Mexican that has grown up on home made dinners, I have to say the tacos and salsa here bring me right back home each visit. You can pick from about 10 styles of meat, including my favorite, al-pastor. The colorful decor is a nice compliment to the authenticity and the beer selection is really good. By far one of my favorite places to eat in Providence.

This place is just okay at best. Very tex mex kind of mexican food. They serve breakfast all day which is a plus. It does not seem all that clean inside either which is the biggest reason I have not been back.

Came here while I was visiting the area with a friend. Friendly, good service, loved the food and the drinks. Everything was tasty and priced fairly. If Im in the area again, Ill definitely be back.

A bit on the expensive side but the waitstaff is incredibly nice and the food is great. Good for sitting down and hanging out for a bit, and within walking distance of all the good gay bars to boot.

There is nothing better than an angry muger cooking you up a f--ing fantastic meal. Oy, this meal was amazing! It tastes like your moms cooking but without all the guilt and butter. I would go again.

Nice atmosphere, decent food. Not the best Mexican food in the world but its pretty good. Dont order until you want to eat because it usually comes out very quick.

Not good at all! Servers are not nice, the food has low quality with respect to the price that you pay! None of my friends like the food and the place.

The most authentic Mexican food around. We sat at the bar and had fantastic service. They even gave us a sample of their hottest sauce. It is amazing!

The most bland and unauthentic "Mexican Food" I have ever eaten. Youd do better eating elsewhere. And they charge you $5 for chips! No Bueno.

Never get take away here. I was told food would be ready in 10 minutes. I ended up waiting 45 minutes and the food was cold.
