On 9/7/2025 Remote Hog had this to say:
First time here. The food was Great, the service was stellar and we will be back! My wonderful husband took me here for my birthday dinner. What a wonderful place to have a yummy Mexican meal. The food so so good, just the right amount of heat and not too salty like other Mexican restaurants I have been to. The options were so vast and I ordered the grilled shrimp dinner. It was so good and the shrimp were cooked just right. The portion was so big that I took half of it home with me. My husband opted for a HUGE burrito. I was impressed that he was able to eat it all. If you are in the mood for Mexican food, do your taste buds a favor and drive out of town a bit and eat here. So dang Good! I can't wait to go back.
