The food is always on point and the workers are so nice. I’m obsessed with their birria tacos and consume dip. Even better is they throw in complementary chips and salsa so you get a snack after your dinner. Somehow I got my entire family addicted to this place. Highly recommend.
Service was great, food was even better! The portions were generous and fairly priced. Shrimp was cooked perfectly. We ate here for lunch on a girl's day trip to Franklin. If we lived closer, this would definitely be a regular favorite!!
The food was amazing. The homemade tortillas made the tacos unbeatable, and the enchiladas were the best I’ve had since moving to Tennessee. The mojarra was perfectly cooked and had plenty of meat. A special shoutout to the owner. His warm hospitality made our visit even more enjoyable.
