I was there for the first time. Didn't realize it was self serve. No one said anything. Even when I asked for menus. But the food is delicious and was brought to the table relatively quickly. Sizzling hot tasty fajitas were the best I've ever had. I'm so happy to have found this little place in north kenai and I will be going there regularly. It's cheerfully and colorfully decorated with mariachi music playing. I will be trying everything on the menu because it all sounds soooo good.

Oh man this is some good food. Just look at this "Steak Chipotle" with wheat tortillas. Delicious and I didn't have to wait long! Ok Alaska, if you haven't been here yet and are in the area, come get some. Worth it.
