We went hear because of a sudden down pour and were pleasantly surprised. I had the " sloppy" nachos supreme and my girl had the chix quesadillas. Both were good. We even spent a while talking with the Texan owner. It was a little pricey but hey, cheese is expensive and your eating Mexican in northern Thailand. Pura vida More

I love the food here, the meat on the ribs falls off the bone and the sauce that comes with it is to die for! Everthing I've had so far has been excellent and the women who owns it is always friendly(lovely lady!) highly recommended, and I think good value as the food is very good... I'm going there tonight... More

But who wants a soggy burito? 'Mexican Grill' suggests that perhaps the cheese would be grill melted on top, but no. Microwave. It's a shame, the recipe is obviously good, why be lazy... More

The place was clean, the mexican fare was superb, the beer... More
