⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — K.L. Hugs
So, we've been to this restaurant three times now . . . the first two times, the food was "mediocre." So, I believe the third time's the charm. After about a year & a half of not returning back, I decided to give it a third try, and order take-out. Man! The girl was super sweet & helpful - she went above & beyond, letting me know what's inside each item ordered, and the other guy was very polite, as well! The food we brought home was delicious! My son, who is a picky eater, finished off all of my leftovers!! I would absolutely give this Mexican restaurant a try if you haven't yet. We will definitely be back again!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Brandon Bellard
I travel the US and alot of South Texas for work. Me and the wife love Mexican restaurants and try everyone in town. By far better than any Mexican restaurant in Louisiana and better or just as good as ones in deep south Texas. Quesbirria was delicious, salsa perfect, grilled pico de gallo perfect, and margarita and Michelada were great! Ate it before I could get some pictures.

I've been coming here for over 4 years, and every time I've come, it's always been fresh, flavorful, and authentic tex-mex. The prices are always fair and it is a great place to order out. Hands down, my favorite restaurant in poplarville and YOU should give it a try. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Place is always good! Especially on taco Tuesday. Nice clean place, with plenty of parking. Service is good, not great…staff/servers always seem to be training and don't quite know the menu or how to price at check out. But that's ok…the food is delicious!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Rebecca W. Buras
Great place for truckers to eat at because the truck stop is right behind the shopping center. Their food was great and very generous amount. We enjoyed our visit and will stop by again if we are ever in the area.

Very good food, hardly ever a wait, and great service. The owner is almost always there and is an incredibly nice person. I eat here on a fairly regular basis.
