The best Mexican food in Iowa , Price, quality and portions are unmatched anywhere.Service is always great, ambiance on point, not to loud , good music . Truly a spot to enjoy.. I am very picky on Mexican food, lived in San Diego for years , visited TJ frequently for authentic cuisine.I always judge a place on; #1 hot sauce- can tell it's made with love, roasted to perfection and spicy as it should be..#2 Camarones a La Diabla - my favorite dish- never watery, actually spicy and lots of shrimp packed with flavor.. #3 street tacos . Go to taco truck messy / hit miss $3-5 small tacos - here $2.50 taco - quick, delicious every time.. Usually only get seafood as that's my favorite- I always get spicy mussels for appetizers. Kids and family love chorizo queso, chili verde, quesadillas, seafood cocktails, Recently been trying other dishes.. my new go to -non seafood is Carne de su jugo.. it's perfect. Always Don Julio margaritas. They know how to make drinks properly.. Support this local small town business. They are legit and the only Mexican food that is always good. Never hit or miss like a lot of places these days...

Not my first time here & definitely not my last. The flavor of everything is always spot on. The chips are crispy, not soaked in grease. Every plate comes hot & fresh. I find it neat you can see the kitchen too. It's a smaller place, but never feels crowded. During summer, it's also a great place to enjoy cold margaritas on the patio!

Love to eat a spend our money local but this will not be a place we return anytime soon. Walked in and no staff was masked while still in an active pandemic . We asked for outdoor seating for 3 and they said there were no seats outside even though we sat one available when we walked in. Asked the server to go look and she confirmed a table as available. The tables outside and inside were so close together people have to scoot in so the servers and others could walk by. Once seated chips and salsa were immediately brought out chips and salsa. Chips were stale but the salsa had good flavor. Second patch of chips were not stale. Drink order taken as well as our meal. Margaritas were brought out first. Flavor was weak and the taste felt like it was the bottom of watered down bucket of premade margaritas. I didn't even drink a quarter of it because the flavor was so bad. While waiting for our meal I went to the bathroom. In bathroom found the floors to have visible debris on the floor as well as dead bugs. We ended up waiting for over 45 minutes for our meal to come out. The food was good but the long wait, atmosphere and margaritas are a deal breaker to go back. We ordered fried ice cream as soon as our food came out noting how long it took for our food to come. Dessert came and they toldUs they ran out of ice cream and served us a fried shell with whip cream and chocolate sauce. Shell was stale and the flavor was as yuck as the whole experience. Not worth the time or money.

Awesome birria and margaritas. What else do you need. O and the building is nice too. If you drive by and eat anywhere else around there you should just go home and order dominos

We had been patrons of the two locations this restaurant was at before it opened this brand new location, under a new name. The owners are very kind and accommodating. We were excited to hear they would have a patio and brand new building.Shortly after they opened in the new location, we called in our order for takeout. It was for a Sunday lunch. Since the pandemic we have opted to support restaurants via takeout/curbside rather than dining in. The phone ordering process was simple and went smoothly. We had ordered an appetizer of cheese dip and two adult meals. Keeping in mind this was in May when I was there. Masking, in Iowa, was a lot lower than it is now. However, I remember walking in, wearing a mask and no one else was. It was disappointing. I do know their masking policy has changed as has Iowa's in general. I must have been their only call-in as they brought my food up quickly. The building is done very nicely! It's a beautiful location inside. I do know they have a nice patio on the east side that I have only seen from passing by. When I was there, I noticed only two tables full but do know it has gotten busier since then as the place is full of huge windows and I can see lots of people when driving past. On to the food. We weren't really impressed. The cheese dip was runny/soupy and never seemed to solidify more, even as it cooled. Our meals were just ok. Nothing to really get excited about, taste wise. The food isn't bad, just not memorable. We may give them another shot as I know many who do enjoy this restaurant.

First time here.Tried the Street Mexican tacos platter, I had 2 steak tacos and 2 chorizo tacos with rice and beans. My favorite were the chorizo, very tasty. I also had the tacos with the spicy salsa Verde and were delicious! Their guacamole was very authentic and the queso dip was perfect! Until next time!

Nice new spot in Norwalk. Kinda pricey, but the food does back it up. Very tasty! The place is usually very busy so kinda hard to social distance. Great margaritas!

Middle of the road with POTENTIAL! These guys want to succeed, I can tell. They are great on service, the food is pretty good but man the details.... First, when you want into the restaurant there is a small sitting area to the right of the hostess stand and it just looks tacky. Silverware, flooring, half eaten food from employees... I never understand this. When you get to your table, the staff is friendly, except maybe one waitress who just doesn't seem to want to be there. Looking over the menu, there is not one iota of descriptions of WHAT the food is, so you are basically left to your own devices, which means picking something you already know. Which is kind of a bummer if you want to try something new. Forget food allergies or sensitivities... unless you ask specifically. It's priced pretty good and drinks are strong. The salsa is definitely not fresh... canned tomato a or tomato sauce is the base and it's just tooooooo sweet for me. No chunks of peppers or onions or even tomato's and not even a hint of spice. Go anyway, but keep that in mind I suppose...

We had been ordering from here for a while now but the last couple of times we've had issues. Decided to give it another shot but probably will be our last. We called in an order for carry out and was told 20 mins. Showed up and they hadn't put in the order yet. They said it would take 15 min. They almost left out part of our order but my husband noticed and they said they would make the other part, so another few minutes. It ended up taking another 40 mins from when my husband got there to pick it up. We ordered birria tacos, Texas fajitas, and queso. The birria tacos were pretty good with a lot of flavor (and the reason this review is two stars instead of one). They didn't provide tortillas for the fajitas but luckily we had some on hand. The refried beans were watery and it didn't come with rice or the side of guac. Husband said it was so so. The queso was extremely disappointing. Clearly they thinned it out with water or maybe milk. Even at room temperature it was so runny it didn't stick to the chip at all. It had zero flavor to it. All in all not worth the $44 we paid. There are better Mexican places in the area we will order from instead.
