This is a great local Mexican restaurant in Raleigh with a fun and unique vibe. Dips are brought out by a small train near the tables it serves. Food is tasty, and I like both the steak tacos and the steak fajitas. The beef was thick, not skimpy. Salsy is fresh, and the guacamole is even fresher and seasoned just right. Parking is a challenge as the lot cannot accommodate all cars and space is tight. An added attraction is the chicken coop outside.

This place was a great experience. The food was amazing and tasted fantastic. The decor and atmosphere around the resturant was unique and authentic. The service was slow, but the fun of the train made up for that.

Had a wonderful time here with a big group of friends for a birthday. The chicken coup outside was cool and unexpected. The carnitas were dry, but the enchiladas and the salsa were amazing. I would definitely come back. It’s nice they allow large party reservations. Hard to find parking when it’s busy.

Entering the parking lot alone brought me to Mexico. They have an iconic Kombi parked right out front that made me smile! What's even better, they have a chicken pen where they collect eggs from and have little baggies for their customers to take home with! The inside of the restaurant is VERY much alive! The color is so vibrant, the art work around the restaurant is beautiful, the atmosphere is AMAZING! I love that they have trains that bring you queso, guacamole, some side dishes, and even ice cream! You do have to request to sit by it as it's not available for every table. I ordered the Green Chilaquiles and they were SO TASTY! I also ordered a cup of their Pozole which was very delightful as well! Will definitely come back!!

The booths are a teeny bit of a tight fit in some areas and parking is tricky but otherwise I love this place. Second time I've been, delicious food and friendly staff. My friend who lived in New York said she dreams about the steak tacos. I had the carnitas that are beer marinated and they were so tender and flavorful. Will be glad to come back again sometime. The live chicken coop is a super fun feature as well! It's a good idea to make a reservation here it was packed even at 5pm on a Friday.

Jesus was great. Service was quick and friendly. We had a very long 2 hrs wait foe fhe queso train and finally opted to eat at a regular table. The drinks were great. Bartender took a large order and never wrote it down. Definitely recommend stopping in. But expect a wait for for the train. And the birthday part was perfect!

Waitress was sweet and did a great job. Food was fresh and delicious. Parking is no problem. Can get loud quickly and may be tough for those with trouble hearing in crowds. Fun atmosphere. Give it a try.
