Serving authentic Mexican food since 1970

About us

For over three decades, our family has been proud to continue the culinary legacy that started in 1970 at our Mexican restaurant located in Soquel, California. Renowned for our devotion to authentic Mexican cuisine, our menu pays homage to time-honored recipes that have delighted locals and visitors alike for more than half a century.


In addition to our carefully crafted food menu, we invite guests to explore our extensive tequila bar - boasting a collection of over 100 different tequilas. From the novice to the connoisseur, our tequila offerings cater to every palate, each one a unique exploration of flavor.


Our menu showcases the very best of fresh, high-quality ingredients - from our top-tier, tender meats to our garden-fresh produce. We proudly stand by our commitment to health and flavor, skipping the use of lard in favor of healthier alternatives. Every meal we serve is a flavorful blend of traditional Mexican recipes and modern culinary approaches. We look forward to welcoming you and providing a memorable dining experience with every enjoyable bite.
