“ Taco Tuesday on our way home from Maryland to Florida. Excellent service, excellent food, we had a speedy Gonzalo’s and 2 taco Tuesday taco specials. They both hit the spot after driving for several hours. If you on I95 nearing Santee definitely stop by for food and a margarita! we will be back! ”
“ We are rice lover with any protein and must I need to say the best rice and the steak was so flavorful. We wish this restaurant is close by us. It’s unfortunate we are just traveling by. But I do recommend this place for food lovers like myself. ”
“ I’m so impressed I’m leaving a review while I’m eating here ! Went for the first time today with my guy and it was awesome ! The food was so fresh and drinks were great and we had a great waiter also ! Definitely a 10! ”
“ Great find. The service was quick and friendly, the food was delicious, and the drinks were on point. It is quite large and has an outdoor patio. There are TVs throughout, so you can watch your fave teams, and the music is upbeat. You have chips and salsa as soon as you’re in your seat. The Mexican Street Corn was great, as were the margarita flights - available on the rocks and frozen (and of course we did one of each). Lime, strawberry, mango, and blue (yep, that’s the flavor ). Delicious. And you can’t beat the prices. If you’re looking for vegetarian options, there’s more available than what you see in the menu - including potatoe tacos and burritos. Plus the beans are vegetarian friendly. ”
“ The food was amazing! I will definitely be back here next time I am in town. ”

“ Busy restaurant, efficient service, excellent food. Lots of TVs to catch up on sporting events. Our waiter was the most fun I've had with waitstaff in a long time. Had some drunks at the bar we had to look past. Try the Bomb! ”
