Our story
Family-owned and operated
A family kitchen on Duval Mine Road.
We cook authentic Mexican food for Sahuarita, Green Valley, Vail and the towns around them, with a few Italian plates on the menu for good measure.
Every dish is prepared in house from fresh ingredients. That means chips and salsa on the table while you wait, generous portions, fair prices, and a staff that remembers how you like your eggs.
All dishes are prepared in house using fresh ingredients.

average ones01 of 06 Best Mexican and Italian food in the area. Service is outstanding with very friendly waiters and waitresses. You always have fresh chips, and salsa at your table while waiting on your food. Awesome pina coladas.
kimk5702 of 06 What a nice surprise! ...Chips were fresh and salsa had a nice flavor and texture. Our entree came with soup or salad, and I went with the chicken rice soup — delicious! Our entrees included yummy garlic shrimp, excellent steak ranchero and very good steak super burritos.
Jeanette K.03 of 06 This restaurant always delivers good food and service. We love that we never have to wait for a table...we've been visiting this restaurant for 3 years on a very regular basis, and the food is always great!
