We ate here twice while in Gatlinburg. The kids loved it! The prices were good, especially for a family of five. The atmosphere was fun and the staff was friendly. I wish there was one closer to where we live! We will definitely go back if in Gatlinburg again.

The food was ok but not worth the price. The atmosphere was decorated great, that was the best part!

I don't know if I can really comment on this place because we didn't even get a chance to eat here. We stopped just before 9:00 pm on a Friday night. The front door was open & we walked in. After stepping into the front door, the person at the hostess station in a loud voice said "we are closed".... More

The food was edible and hot but I wouldn't ever go here again. The only thing I really liked was the small little corn bread thing that came with all of the meals. It was so moist and fresh and tasted exactly like what corn bread should taste like. I'd never had it before and don't really even know what... More

I picked this place for Mothers Day lunch, and if we weren't starving, I would have left immediately... Because the three young women at the hostess stand didn't speak when we walked in, or out for that matter; no pleasantries, not even a smile. Acted as if they couldn't be bothered. The girl who took us to the table never... More

This place had been suggested to us by the hotel we were staying: "the best Mexican food in the area". This is a locally owned chain that lives up to its reputation. The service as good, the place not too noisy and the food was outstanding with very fresh, well-cooked ingredients. It was a family place but the tables were... More

I visited back in October with my family, but yesterday drove over the mountain with friends to Pigeon Forge & Gatlinburg for shopping, food, and drinks. They were craving mexican and I said I knew the perfect place. I'm very glad I chose it, because they all enjoyed it greatly! Most of us ordered the sampler platter for each of... More

Love this place! We go often as we do not live too far away from a weekend getaway here. This place really hits the mark on all categories. Great authentic mexican cantina food, good service, clean, and good atmosphere. What else can you ask for? They have convient locations in both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge.
