“ Husband and I went for lunch to try out Mi Gente for the first time. So glad we did! The agua de Melon and Horchata was refreshing and not overly sweetened. Hubby had the Mole Enchiladas (he ate it so fast I didn’t get to take a pic!), and I had the Pollote Enchiladas with side of rice and their elote. Everything was fresh and had lots of flavor. Salsa verde had the right amount of kick to it. Staff was very friendly and attentive. Javier made sure we were taken care of and made us feel like family. We will definitely come back with friends and family to try out other menu items as they all sound amazing! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! ”
“ If you know...this location used to a Mexican restaurant before and we always had a favorite server and a wonderful hostess. Sam and Paloma are still there, which was great to see them again. They had live music which is always fun. And they still have that great big room in the back for parties. The food is great they have a big chicken fried steak. ”
“ Enjoyed the Hot Cheetos Enchiladas! My favorite! Charro beans and corn are the best sides and the Chicken on a stick is lightly breaded and yummy. ”
