⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Grace E. Jones
I had breakfast here this morning. Their Migas normally comes with fried tortilla chips, eggs, onions and cheese. I asked if they could add tomatoes and they did without hesitation. It was served with potatoes, beans and a side of flour tortillas. It was all very good with a good cup of coffee.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Aaron Jelley
Finally, a Mexican restaurant with some flavor. They are only open for breakfast and lunch, but that will not keep me from visiting again
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Joe Davies (Daddy Joe)
If you live in the Wylie area you already know. This restaurant is by far in my top 5 for Mexican food in Abilene. Breakfast, lunch or dinner you cannot go wrong. And they newly added door dash as an option. Give it a shot, you will not be disappointed
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 — Duane Clark
Called up to get to go for 8 enchiladas. Got all the fixing at a great price. We eat there at least twice a month living in Clyde. Food was excellent. I go just to pick up a 32oz salsa. Thanks ya'll.
