We've been living in Encinitas for 3 years and have wanted to eat here and I'm sad that we waited this long! We arrived on a Thursday night at 530pm and were seated inside right away (plenty of seating outside on their patio too) in a booth. Within an hour the place filled up with locals. Fast and friendly service. The drinks, chips, and salsa were great. Really appreciate the kids menu. My wife and I both ordered enchiladas which were solid - the red mole was a bit strong for my wife (but to each their own). I'm so glad that I ordered the chicken soup because it was AMAZING. A friend had recommended trying one of their many authentic soups and I will definitely be back just for the soup alone!

Always a wonderful experience! Had a lovely Mother's Day lunch with the family. Food was delicious as always. Chicken soup & Mexican Parrillada our some of our favorites.

No. Longest wait I've had there was about an hour, on a holiday weekend. I haven't had a long wait lately, though we usually go on a weeknight.
