We drove from Chicago just to try this place after hearing about it. Worth every mile. The fajitas came sizzling and the margaritas were exactly what we needed.

Finally, a spot in Delavan that does Mexican food right. The flavors are bold and authentic, and my kids love the quesadillas. We come here every weekend now.
