Seems like a hole-in-the-wall, but the food is wonderful, the service is great, and you get plenty of food for your money! After going there once, I ordered to-go the next day, too!

The best Mexican restaurant in southern Illinois, no question! One of my favorite local establishments, too. The best service anywhere, too, out of everywhere I’ve been nationwide.
