The food was the best I have had from this spot. Everything tasted very fresh. The only reason I gave four stars instead of five is because the amount of time we sat waiting to place drink orders. I would be more forgiving if it was busy, but it wasn't.
Service was friendly and our food came out as ordered. We will dine here again when in the area.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Dave B.Delaware, OH11401Apr 21, 2024
Bland. Bland and watery queso dip, chunky yet tasteless salsa, flavorless refried beans and enchilada sauce. Guacamole looked old with hot jalapeños mixed in. We'll stick with MI Cerritos.

Thought I would give them another chance. Shouldn't have. Took my son for lunch. Taco Bell has more flavor than this place. Took one bite of my taco, rice, and chili rellano. That was it. Son had cheese enchiladas and cheese wasn't melted. Horrible. Can't wait until MiCerritos opens.

We won't be eating here anytime soon if at all. The prices are average. The place is clean. Employees are nice. Food is not good. Do yourself a favor and drive 10 more minutes to Crestline and eat at Mi Cerritos.

This rating is not based on just one visit. Over the past year I have made 3 online orders, one delivered and two pick up. I have visited the restaurant 3 times in person. To note this is the only Mexican attempted restaurant in the small town of galion.
Food is commonly old and not fresh unless the dining room is busy. It is mediocre at best and this will be my last visit there.
Deliver order arrived smashed, food seeping from bay, sauce cup crushed just a train wreck. I called to complain and their answer was it was fine when it left.
Last night the food picked up was short in quantity. Regular bland in taste and not held down all night. The chips were the bottom broken pieces and for a large bag of chips, there were only a hand full of full size chips.
The limes were so old that when you squeezed the half of lime absolutely nothing came out. This is not an over exaggeration. No need to, just for examples of quality.
Mexican tacos had bone fragments and got annoying to eat the tough pieces.
Management doesn't back up their product and since they are the only ones in Galion, you get what you get.
Good luck with your experience.

Husband and I stop by whenever we get the craving for Mexican food. The waitstaff is attentive and everything always tastes fresh.

Love this local, hometown Mexican Restaurant.
Great chips, salsa & queso. I always get the seafood chimichonga & they are more than willing to make it to my likings.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Bill T.Fredericktown, OH2331Mar 11, 2020
First time I've ever been to this restaurant and was not impressed at all. Service was not bad from our waitress but after she took our order we didn't to see her again. Our server came out with our food within 5 minutes of ordering which to me is never a good sign.
Our food was pretty plain to say the least. I had the 5 enchiladas which weren't terrible but hurriedly made and the enchilada sauce tasted like it was canned. The Chile relleno is another story, it was a
Mound of hamburger with one small piece of chili in it and covered in cheese sauce?
Definitely will not be back. There are a number of really good Mexican restaurants out there and this was the worst I have ever been to. Not sure I even seen anyone except the waitress smile. One woman ,owner maybe?, sat in the dining room are talking on the phone and servers must not be allowed to smile not a good experience.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Samantha A.OH, OH94Aug 26, 2021
Very good food, fast but good service, fair prices, and accommodating to large groups! I eat frequently at this restaurant, so much so that I should be embarrassed that the staff know my order! I always look forward to their chips and salsa, fajitas, and a margarita.

Food was okay. Just okay too. Seating backs flop really bad on the booths. Food service is sub par can't even get a simple drink order correct multiple times asking for sweet tea no ice cup full of ice both times. Restaurant is warm a bit uncomfortable. Wanted this to be good I was told to go by a buddy.
