We were so happy to have found this place in our day trip to Bainbridge. The food was very, very good! We love Mexican food and this is one of the best we've had in awhile! Portions are large (as with most Mexican places). You can easily share one plate. The cocktails were delish too! Service was on point. I highly recommend, and will visit again!

OMg!! if you’re in Seattle, looking for Mexican food, don’t eat in Seattle. Take the ferry over here!! Excellent house margarita!! And amazing chips and salsa with beans and cheese!! So good!! So friendly, so yummy!!

This place was a hidden gem. We stopped here on a whim and were not disappointed. The food was on point, plus the restaurant was extremely clean. The margaritas were on the sweet side, but still good. The queso and guacamole were definitely worth it!!! The meals were also huge, enough for two people to share one meal! I would say stop here while you are on the island!!

Close to the Bainbridge ferry plus they give bean dip and salsa for an appetizer.. my taco salad was very filling. I made it here and back to the ferry in time with time left over. Nice place. Lots of people talking and having a good time. These pics were taken the last time I went here, my son ordered the macho burger, it was huge and amazingly delicious! The service here is amazing as well.

After moving to Washington three years ago I have struggled to find Mexican food that I would consider really good.. I was not expecting to find such a good place on Bainbridge island when stopping by for a day trip. The food was great, the service exceptional, and they had all the kitschy cute decor you’d expect. I’d highly recommend eating here.

Great experience here. Really great server, made us feel really welcome with our two kids. Very good seating for a larger group. Great atmosphere and the food was fantastic. I got shrimp tacos and they were fantastic

Great drinks, great ambience. One of the best places for a margarita around Seattle in my humble opinion.

It was very chill we did go at an off time but we didn't feel rushed. There are a few stated vegetarian dishes, if your vegan tell them no cheese before they bring the refried beans to the table. If you like hot sauce ask for the house hot salsa it's not burn your tongue but it's flavor is great.
