Had a great dinner right on the river walk! The enchiladas we're good and the food was plentiful. There are some pretty cheap drinks as well if you order them between 12 and 6PM. I give the restaurant 4 stars because I was willing to wait for a seat at the riverside. If I had sat indoors or on the patio I would knock the experience down to 3 stars. Not the best Mexican restaurant I've ever been to but the scenery and good waiter made it a very nice experience.

My girlfriend and I love this place. I would say it is my favorite restaurant on the river walk to visit. The staff is always friendly and seem to serving you. The outdoor seating is my favorite. My girlfriend and I sit at a table for two under the stairs leading to Coyote Ugly and feel cozy while still having a lot of space and free view of the river. The food here has ALWAYS blown me away! The size of the portions leave you filled to the brim and the drinks are half off during happy hour. If you are looking for a place to unwind after a long, hot day, this is a great place to do so.

Really good Mexican food! A central Mexico taste (spices) and style of food. Great service! Love the Tequila bottle light fixtures! Warm chips and delicious salsa!

This place is on the river walk and is open 24 hours. We arrived around 11pm and wanted to sit along the river. We stood and waited for someone to seat us, nobody in sight. Finally a man came out from the back and said sit where ever you like. Waited until a waitress showed up. We ordered water to drink, took her about 10 minutes to bring then about another 10 minutes to bring us chips and salsa. Said she would be back to take our order. After 15 minutes, we left. Perhaps everyone was sleeping in the back?

Pros: * Friendly staff * Open area * Quick service * Live Mariachi music * Chips and Salsa were awesome Cons: * Tables and chairs are dirty * Ordered a Chicken Burrito and it was yuck. A gigantic pile of mushiness and an overpowering smell of cumin that destroys the taste. The chicken inside the tortilla was bland. The rice was also bland and mushy. Again, the cumin overpowered everything. I don't think it's authentic Mexican food style. * Prices are high compared to sitting and food quality.
