Family friendly restaurant has been in operation for many years. Very professional staff serving their customers. Great food. Large playground for children with staff members looking after kids while parents enjoy a good meal. Valet parking at the door.

The place is decorated with Mexican motifs, which goes hand in hand with the menu, where you'll find Mexican food is the star. It has the facilities and capacity to accommodate large groups. We recommend going on a buffet day, as that's when you can get the most bang for your buck. The only problem is the parking; it's usually packed during peak hours, and there aren't many parking options nearby.
