This restaurant was opened April 10 of 2022. I found out about it today, while I was on my way to the hardware store. I suggested to my wife that we give it a try for dinner. What a pleasant surprise! The food here is excellent. My wife had the chicken and beef burrito and I had the chorizo and beef enchilada. The portions were generous and the flavor was amazing. For those patrons looking for meatless menu options, they offer several vegetarian dishes. Every table was occupied. Service was a bit slow, but that's to be expected for a new restaurant. There were four servers and three employees working in the kitchen. Service was friendly and pleasant. Prices were very reasonable. There is a porch area with tables to sit outside as well. The menu is extensive for a small and new restaurant such as this one and they also offer desserts. I can easily recommend this restaurant and will definitely be back again.

Fast friendly service, had the chile relleno and beef burrito combo, chicken fajitas, and huevos chorizo. All were very good and portioned well. I thought the price were good. Bathrooms were clean but could use some maintenance.

I rarely post reviews, but felt I had to after an amazing experience: delicious homemade Mexican food, better than most spots in DC where we live, and at half the price. Guacamole was spot on, meat was perfectly seasoned and even the rice and beans were delicious. And very friendly service. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!

I live in Mercersburg and recently became aware that this restaurant had opened. I went over today to try out their cuisine. I seated myself and very quickly I was served fresh chips and sauce. I ordered the Tres Compadres which consisted of a boneless chicken breast, one rib eye steak, shrimp, rice and beans and one fried jalapeno pepper. My food was served very promptly. The waiter was friendly , the service was excellent and the food was top notch. While I ate I was asked at least 3 times if everything was okay. The restaurant was bright, and clean. I had apple pie and fried ice cream for dessert. I could not eat all of my main meal and took some home. I was very happy with the quality of the food and the service. This restaurant is a welcomed addition to our small little town. I am sure I will be there often. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who likes authentic Mexican food. I forgot to note that this is a family owned business which is something I appreciate.

Good food. Cool open concept where you can see into the open kitchen. Service was great. Burrito reported as really good, and the seafood quesadilla was good. I felt they could've added some more shrimp, but the taste was good.
