I went to the brunch buffet on a Sunday morning around 10 am. with some friends. For being a buffet style brunch, it was surprisingly delicious. Apart from the food on the buffet line, they also can make you fresh things such as omelets and pancakes. The food was delicious they also have posole and menudo. I had the menudo, and it didn't disappoint. My favorite was by far the carnitas and buche. They also have a salad bar as well as a dessert bar. I'm definitely going back. Oh, and the Cafe de olla was to die for.

We had a fantastic dinner here. The whole family enjoyed it. Food was flavorful and beautifully served. We had the steak fajita and carnitas del chef. The tomato wine reduction of the sizzling plate of fajita was amazing. The pieces of carnitas were clean cut and crispy on the outside. The corn and flour tortillas tasted freshly made and came out piping hot. We were served warm chips and salsa when we sat down, and they refilled it for us. Great service! We will definitely be back to try more dishes from the menu.
Our server Cassidy was great! Opted for the lunch buffet and was blown away by the amazing selection, got to sample many of their dishes. So so good and many flavors.

Saw this on social media and tried it. It lived up to all the hype! Food was great and a huge variety. The margarita flight was delicious.
Amazing place. Not crowded at all but I'm sure that will change. The service was great and the food was better. A nice atmosphere with plenty of seating and tvs. The asada is bomb however you have it. The mole is bomb. The only dessert we tried was the fried ice cream, and it was great. I highly recommend a wet asada burrito. The portions are large.
I loved the atmosphere of this restaurant. The selection of food was amazing and the food was great. We ordered the tostada salad, pozole, asada burrito, and taquitos. Large portions and very delicious. Service was attentive and checked in often. Our drinks were never empty. I am looking forward to coming back!
