Girlfriend and I were doing little shopping and decided to stop for lunch. Service was quick and very friendly. Love the look of the place on the inside. Our server was friendly and spoke Spanish as well. He recommended lots of different types of drinks and new dishes they had. We ordered couple drinks and they were very good. We each ordered the three tacos and rice and beans option. All tacos were very good and rice and beans were great. They had a green salsa as well that was very tasty and had a good kick to it. Overall we enjoyed our food, had great service.

Good drinks, good service, good music. First time here and I was impressed! Waitress was very attentive, the music was great, lots of variety! The food was great. I ordered the fajitas and was surprised with a show as it arrived to my table. Margaritas were balanced and flavorful. Will be back definitely give this place a try!

Stopped in before seeing a show at Point Cinemas. I ordered 3 tacos with black beans and Mexican rice. The tacos were delicious! Highly recommend! Chill vibe and reasonable prices. Give Big Sur Cantina a try if you’re on the west side and need a bite!

By far the best Tex Mex place in Madison! Portions are amazing, they don’t skimp on the meat or queso! Delicious food. I would eat at this place for the rest of my life if I could! I beg you to try the Birria Fries they are so good!

Our dinner here was excellent. We stopped in during the week for a quick dinner. Our server was very friendly and checked in on us multiple times during our visit. The food was delicious, and we will plan to visit here again soon.
