Voted “Ankeny’s Best Mexican Restaurant” from 2004-2021

When we opened in March of 1998, there weren’t many authentic Mexican restaurants around the Ankeny area. However, it didn’t take long for us to find our niche. We’ve been voted “Ankeny’s Best Mexican Restaurant” by readers of The Des Moines Register for the past 18 years in a row (2004-2021).
