This place is one of the BEST restaurants in leesburg. Very glad I finally stopped in. The birria tacos, carnitas, and carne asada quesadilla were all seriously excellent, full of cheese, and they are generous with their portions compared to most places. They have a giant ice cream bar here too that is very high quality. Very happy with the flavor and what you get for the price. I love this place.
Hands-down, the best in this area trust me when I say I know what I’m talking about because my opinion counts to the max!! First let me just brag about the delicious freshly made chips and the out of this world salsa that you will just be hooked. I wanna buy some to take home like me. & The agua Frescas omg fantastic!!!! I ordered the torta of Carne Asada to die for!!! And when you’re done, you can have an ice cream treat if you have room!!
I had noticed they opened a whole back and wanted to bring my fiancé to try this place. He’s from California and it looked like so many of shops we saw while out there with him. I received great service & exceptional food! The music got loud but we enjoyed the party like feel, and our server offered to turn it down. We appreciated that but I really wasn’t a bother. It definitely gets busy with the after work crowd, so be forewarned. But the wait for fresh, authentic Mexican food is definitely worth it. We can’t wait to go again.
