Very nice, fast and friendly service. Wide variety of choices. Great appetizer s, we had fries with cheese topping and steak bits. Helpings were big. Watch out, They're a hit too.also had floutas. Beef, chicken and cheese. Huge amounts of beans and rice.

I ordered the Carne Asada and it was literally like eating tough, unseasoned shoe leather. When I questioned the owner as to why the meat has not been marinated and seasoned, she replied that this is how Montanas like it! This lady is Mexican and should know how to prepare this common dish. She made no excuse nor did she offer to compensate for a dish I could not eat and was quite rude. Will never go there again. Worst ever!

Best chimchange I've ever had. Servers were super nice and it came in within 5 minutes of ordering. Salsa is amazing also. The decor inside is cozy and the lights add to the coziness. The tables are big, so everyone gets enough space, and overall food was 9.5/10, the reasons I don't give it a full 10 star is because I ate too much. I highly recommend going here!

Huge plates. Tons of cheese. Food made with love. María is a truly wonderful person, and she has made a beautiful restaurant that I wish I could go back to. Her story is amazing, and the food is even better.

Great food, great service, and nice atmosphere and location. I went for lunch with several ladies and everyone enjoyed their meal. I opted for two tamales and a side of rice. Tamales are $5 each, and so large and filling! I ended up taking one home for my husband.

The service was not good. The food was mediocre when I tried to tell the waitress which is the manager she tried to turn it around. I told her if your going to be friendly don't to all. The chicken enchiladas was dry and the can of coke was over priced. 12 once can for 1.50 I've been to Mexico the food is not genuine Mexican. The taco was actually good the rice was hard. So just be aware. Giving my honest opinion. I travel for my job. So i do see a lot of places. I hope she improves her attitude.

I always get the pork carnitas, they are delicious! The refried beans are really good: good flavor and texture. Rice is fluffy. Lettuce and onion/cilantro/jalapeño topping gives just enough heat to carnitas.

Charged extra for chips & salsa, charged a credit card fee, charge an automatic gratuity on parties of over 5. I understand rising costs & inflationbut all the extra charges seemed a bit much. Food was okay & service was not great. Made me a bit sad. I love supporting local.

Got a combo plate of chili relleno & a cheese enchilada. It was the typical oval plate of hot orange goo. Enchilada was non-existent in the goo. What ticked me off was that they charged $3 for chips before meal, then another $3 if you want more! No Mexican restaurant I've ever been in charges for chips.
But the waitress was nice.

Food was ok, nothing special. They upcharge for everything such as chips and salsa and even hot sauce for your meal. Doubt we will return as there are much better options available in town.

The food is boiled and tasteless. The price for said food is an absolute JOKE. Not "Authentic" Mexican by any means. This place is gross. Save your money and cook your own tacos!

My wife & I ordered a ordered sizzling fajitas & it was horrible. We couldn't eat it. Food was not cooked properly, the guacamole was almost brown & the meat was bad. Definitely not authentic.

Well let’s just say that I have been going here for a long time and it’s truly one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in great falls, however… tonight we received some of the worst service we have ever experienced. I ordered a combo plate and asked for a chicken taco, something I order every single time I go there to eat. The waitress brings out our food and the taco that came with my combo was ground beef, I flagged down the waitress and asked if I could possibly get the chicken taco that I ordered, she was nice the first time. She brought back my second taco, this time being shredded beef. I really just wanted my chicken taco especially because you pay extra for chicken. I flagged her down again and this time she came to my table and I explained again what was wrong this time she took the shredded beef taco and responded, “Well this is hilarious” then managed to get to the kitchen and throw the taco AND the plate in the garbage. When my chicken taco came out she had another waitress bring it to me. After this she never once checked on us again, no water refills, no boxes. She dropped off our check and walked away. I continued to have a conversation with my family for about 20 minutes and another waitress came to our table and asked if we were ready to pay yet. I handed her my card signed my receipt and left. Also after looking at my receipt when I left it specifically shows I ordered a chicken taco with my combo meal.

Let’s just say I will not be returning until these waitresses can get an attitude check… very disappointed.

Just left this establishment. Susy was our waitress and first off let me say she has zero personality and needs to work on her serving skills. Her service was garbage from the moment we sat down. She came up and asked what we wanted to drink but left before my husband ordered his. When I ordered my drink I ordered a Corona Rita because the bartender told our friends we met there he wouldn't make it. Of course I order it and they bring it to the table.but wouldn't for my friend who ordered the SAME thing. Finally when she delivers it asked why they wouldn't do it for him but they would for me? She replied "he's new here" referring to the bartender. Ordered our food, ALL of it was so dry we could barely get it down without drowning it in salsa. Finally we get the ticket and it's insane.lol I see she added a %20 gratuity. Adding gratuity so you have guaranteed tips I see. I talked directly to the manager - lucky me was the same crapola server we had, and she tried justifying it and I told her that I'm NOT paying all of that and that I would have left 0 tip because her attitude was garbage so I'm not paying a gratuity either. I paid. She said "Have the day you deserve" on my way out. So ma'am - I will have the day I deserve always because I give give give give to others but when service is bad I won't hesitate speaking for myself. Thankfully we moved so we won't be returning to this place. So sad to see what's happened to it.
