“ Great food. The Carne Asada is tender and very flavorful. Good food. ”
“ The steak here is superb. Burros are huge and filling. And the prices are reasonable. Very family friendly atmosphere, with an area for the kids to play while the parents eat. Hands down, my favorite place to eat in AP. ”
“ This a stop we make every time we are in AP. Food is amazing. It's a busy place, so servers are stretched thin, but do their best. ”
“ Such amazing food and a great experience every time! ”
“ Now THIS is Sonoran style grub! My cousin from AZ took us here years ago and I must say it’s the most incredible Mexican food ever. Not your typical burritos and tacos (that’s more a California thing). This is full on barbecue and meats, with the typical stuff as a backdrop. The ribs and rib tacos (with Sonoran style tortillas) is my favorite! So tender, juicy, crispy, and TASTY AF. Try it with a Mexican coke or a shot of bacanora (a type of mezcal from Sonora). You can’t go wrong either way. ”
