This restaurant was surprisingly good. We were so pleased with everything from the atmosphere but especially the food! You have to try their special dish that is served in a hot dish with meat, juices, and cheese. It was so good!

Very good pico de gallo. Service was great. It may be a bit pricy, but the quality was worth it. Buffet only served during breakfast times from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm.

I am here on vacation with my kid's. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet. The food was amazing and they made the tortillas fresh and delivered it to your table. The staff are so friendly and amazing customer service. I will be back.
