Delicious food, fantastic service, the prices are high but so is everywhere else and they make up for it with portion sizes, atmosphere, and quality!

Best mole EVER!! Butter garlic shrimp was also outstanding. Service was fast, atmosphere was colorful and clean. Prices are competitive. Not overly salty. Portions are huge. We will definitely be coming back.

BEST MEXICAN FOOD EVER!! The Margaritas were phenomenal and strong! We had fajitas for 2 and appetizer combo and it was enough food for 6 people. I absolutely recommend this place Alex, our server, was efficient and friendly. Food came out fast and hot! We ordered the cheese cake to go because we were stuffed so I haven’t tried it yet but if it is anything like the rest of the meal it’s gonna be a real treat. Thank you for being an amazing restaurant.

Man this spot is fantastic for authentic Mexican food, once you step in side it feels like you have been transported to mexico! The food was so tasty and filling! I left stuffed! The margaritas hit. Highly recommend, one downfall is the prices are a little steep. But again that quality and portions were great!

I was skeptical about eating in this place as we were told it was good but not sure if it served actual Mexican food. The prices are a bit higher from what I'm used to back in my hometown but the food is worth the price! I ordered the carnitas plate and they tasted as good as the ones I've eaten in Mexico. The plate was well served with tortillas, beans and rice. My husband ordered the steak plate and also said it was delicious. I also got a mango Margarita which was more than delicious and a Cantarito that was huge. The service was really good and the 2 ladies that attended us were really nice. Would definitely eat here anytime I'm back in Vernal.
