"It was New Year's Eve and we're hungry. We wanted to distract from the crowds in downtown. I had read the reviews and thought we would try. We were glad we did. With only a few tables in the small dining room, it is more like eating with the owner and his family and in fact they were all milled around. I ordered a margarita, because a margarita is a kind of litmus test for a restaurant serving Mexican cuisine. Isn't that right? It was really remarkable! My wife, not Tequila Drinker, now has the south of the border fantasies about these margaritas. She loved her. Not enough O s in smoooth! When we waited for our food, the owner son made a pretty hit when he engaged every female in the place (there was only 4) in a dance. With Latin American music he played with them all. We all snapped and laughed and had a nice time. The owners are so nice! The food arrived and everything looked so fresh. I had Fajitas. The broccoli mixed with onions and peppers and all grilled to perfection. Delicious! My wife had shrimp tacos and from her reaction I could say they were delicious. I could convince them that I tried them and they were very good. The menu is quite wide and has some genuine authentic elements such as tongues Tacos. The price is higher than your average Mexican restaurant, but our experience was worth it. It's a great way to celebrate. We'll be back to see if the next time is as good as the first. If you find yourself in Galena and have a desire for good fresh authentic Mexican foods, why not give them an attempt."
