Lovely Mexican restaurant offering a variety of Mexican dishes. Food is very tasty, most dishes are served with sour cream and guacamole, though they do contain cilantro (coriander leaves), which may be an issue for sensitive people. Service is quick, and the vibe in the restaurant is fun with Mexican music playing in the background. I highly recommend this restaurant to people who enjoy Mexican food.

This was amazing Mexican food. If you get a chance I would highly recommend this restaurant. Compliments to the chef and the waiter was fantastic.

Definitely a tourist Trap The service is highly disappointing, another staff had taken our orders prior, but the same lady that had us seated in a table was asking us to move to the bar when my mother wanted to order an additional drink. I don’t know if she was under the impression that we were only ordering drinks and she was “wasting” a table on us, but the tone of her voice was rude. Later on, we would ask the male staff that took our order for water, my mother asks for “service or tap” water. He comes back with a bottled still water to which we refuse and ask him to bring regular water,…

We went with a lot of expectations, but once we were there the prices were super high, but anyways we ordered same food and margarita. The margarita wasn't good enough and served in a simple glass, normally is served in a different kind of cup. Taste so so... We ordered nachos, 1 chicken burrito and enchiladas. The burrito was super simple, just the roll bread and bowling chicken... nothing else inside or sauce at all. Enchiladas was ok, and the nachos very normal amount for the price. Definitely quality could be much better for the high prices. The place is very beautiful and good music, but…

Had a decent meal here. I arrived a few minutes before they opened but they let me come in and wait at the bar until they were ready which I appreciated since it was cold and rainy outside. The food was good. I got the beef enchiladas and really enjoyed them, but the rice and little amount of beans were not "Mexican" in my opinion. It was also pretty pricey for what I got, but maybe that's just par for the course for Ponta Delgada restaurants.

Uh, difficult one. It's like going to Taco Bell, the food is a bit sad. The tacos were okay, the shrimp enchiladas were chewy and the filling was tasteless and rubbery. Hotwings okay but quite atypical. The margarita is a sweet slushy...so if you like that and drink it fast, ok. Don't let it sit. Really a fast food experience, not a restaurant and unfortunately that means it's woefully overpriced. The team were super attentive and motivated. Thanks guys!

They serve rice to their Burritos, something they don't do in Mexico. Also they seem not to be aware of the existence of Quesadilla and Tamales. It is Tex-Mex, and for this it's okay and delicious also the people were super nice and friendly!
