I am a Everglades Park employee and I stop in here often. This place, although attached to a gas station is clean and accommodating. I stop here often to and from work and have yet to be disappointed on anything I have tried. So for those that are visiting please stop in a great local establishment and enjoy!

Delicious, but greasy, chorizo burrito. Easy to find when leaving Everglades Nat'l Park. I was nervous about it being attached to gas station, but it only shares a wall -- you can't access it from the convenience store. Great service. Easy place for our whole family to eat.

We stopped here after a day at Everglades National Park and enjoyed an excellent dinner--nothing fancy as, after all, this is a little family restaurant next to a convenience store. But we ordered a variety of entrees and everything was delicious, served with a smile, and prepared very quickly, which was appreciated. This place is easily overlooked but worth looking... More

Were it not for Trip Advisor's compelling reviews, who would have stopped at a "diner-like" restaurant attached to a gas station's convenience store a mile off of the main highway in Florida City? But what a treat. Great service, great prices, and great food served in gigantic portions. The Alambre dish is amazing, Fajitas sumptuous, and the Enchiladas Rojas delicious.... More

This place is in a strip mall and looks more like a fast food place. We almost didnt go in but we were tired and hungry after a long day. And really didnt want to drive around any longer. I am so glad we decided to give it a try. It would have been our loss if we hadn't! Believe... More

This is good food! I grew up in Phoenix, AZ and am used to Sonoran style mexican food. Now that I live in Florida I am having a hard time finding what I consider to be good. This was! I tried the enchiladas with red sauce and a carne asada burrito - both were great (although the burrito had beans... More

A simple, tasty Mexican food joint on the way to the Everglades (Flamingo). Interesting tacos; choice of sauces. Wide mix of people: locals and tourists. The real thing.

The food was exceptionally fresh. We had multiple tacos (some pork, some beef, some chicken) and they were all very good. We tried most of the salsas (there's a salsa bar with at least 8 different kinds) and were impressed by the freshness and brightness of the flavors. A great place to have a taco.

A great Mexican meal that tastes like it came out of a Mexican home kitchen and a very reasonable price. You know it's good when it's filled with locals.
