I thought the food here was very good. Everyone was very welcoming. Portions are large and the prices are good. Chips and salsa were also tasty, and so is the queso!

We're from Boston and happen to be staying across the street from this GEM of a Mexican restaurant.. True authentic Mexican cooking. Thank you for a pleasant surprise and absolutely delicious meal.

Food was good. Love my Mexican food. A really fast, considering how busy it was. Tasty enchiladas. Happy, smiling staff. Locals said it was the place to go. Kinda odd that it was inside hotel, but nice atmosphere.

Amazing!!Very welcoming atmosphere.Chips and Salsa were pretty good.A glass of agua de jamaica was fresh and refreshing.Had the baked potato with chicken, steak and bacon. It was delicious with every bite containing flavor!!I hada side of beanz and rice with some flour torts. The beans were very good and the rice was perfect.The flour torts were not hand made.Overall an amazing meal!! Very much worth dropping by if you are in the area!

On the road and stopped in, amazing salsa... Alejandro who took us to our table was phenomenal. His suggestion, attention to our order, checking in on us to see if we needed everything while doing his job... that type of customer service is unheard-of. Highly recommend

They have rice with meat and cheese entrée caled DJ's Favorite that is delicious and filling. My wife ordered the Shrimp Street Tacos that came with avocado (1/2) and Pico. The salsa and queso were delicious. And surprise they have Funnel Fries an order big enough for 8 but we could only finish about half of it. It's a diamond of a cafe attached to a hotel.

Passing through and it’s always hit and miss . But the food was really good ! It is inside the Days Inn . Very convenient, plenty of seating and parking. The server did an excellent job . We were happy with our meal . I had something new for me . Bed of crispy seasoned fries topped with meats and cheese ! Delicious! Hubby had the chicken taquitos!
