    If you order in spanish, they'll love you. For example, if you get a combo number 5, say me gusta numero cinco por favor. The salsa is super hot by the way

    Best Mexican place in Nashville. The chicken, rice and cheese mix is amazing. Highly recommend it. It's called grianga.

    Place was ok. Food was good however while eating someone was literally banging on metal for a solid 2 mins. Kinda ruins the mood.

    The salsa is great, not too spicy. The chips, however, we're too hard

    Skip if you are vegetarian. I ordered from the vegetarian section and still ended up with a beef enchilada.

    Worst service I have EVER had. The general manager refused to even come and talk to us, our glasses were always empty, and we did not receive half of the food we ordered. Food was mediocre, but cheap.

    Do not order the sopapillas! It comes out as a crunchy tortilla shell covered in honey.
