    The tacos here are pretty good. I purchased the asada (steak) and the pollo (chicken). I also purchased a horchata. I was somewhat skeptical about the chicken because it was yellow in color, thought it was eggs at first , plus I assumed that it would be shredded chicken. No need for concerns though because it was delicious as well as the steak. Both were flavorful and tender. The meal came with the usual: onion, cilantro, green/red sauces, limes, and grilled onions. Now, the grilled onions were new for me on tacos, but I love onions, so it only made them better. I haven't had tacos in a while, so I was looking for a to go spot for whenever the mood arises. This place has made the list. A let down for me; however, was the beverage, the horchata. It was a lil dark in color and tasted a lil watered down. I do plan to go back and try other options. When I arrived to pick up my order, I saw that they had birria tacos (for the day) along with other items, so I'll definitely be back to try those. There's also a store attached to the restaurant, which I plan to check out as well. *total was about $14 and some change. The parking lot could use some work, though, went down a few spots before parking.

    Great food. Doesn't get any better. If you like authentic Mexican this is the place. Reasonably priced also.

    The food was great! Authentic as you can get in Biloxi. The service took longer than expected but the food kind of makes up for that. The restaurant is half restaurant half convenience store. The entire place has some age on it and could use renovation. Again, the food was pretty good.

    Only in the area for a short time and I am ecstatic I found this place early. Michelada was large, well seasoned and delicious. Burritos was full, heavy on ingredients in the right ratio and was excellent. Connected to a small store with all kinds of good snack and treats. Overall great spot for some very authentic Mexican food. Will be visiting again.

    love the prices and quality of the food here. the place is simple. service is fast. i love the size of the kids meal portions for fajita and quesadilla (i can't eat alot in one sitting). they offer military discount. horchata and jamaica are great. attached to a decent hispanic market. only negative is sometimes the music can be quite aggressive/loud in this small space.
