Went there a couple months ago, had to ask for refills and took quite a while before anyone acknowledged me, service was terrible.
Today I decided to give it another try, we got seated immediately and the waitress took our drink order right away and offered us some appetizers to start, it was really busy so she apologize our food was taking a while to come out but made sure we had refills and not run out of chips and salsa.
New faces great service, staff super friendly and always smiling and food is delicious, will be coming back.

The service was lacking and nonchalant... No acknowledgement of our arrival, I was unsure whether we seat ourselves or wait to be seated... Eventually we were pointed to a table- that still had it's previous ticket and the table was pushed to the side. Our server seemed as though she was just going through the motions and not really interested in being at work... The food was meh... Not the best impression for my guy's first time to a Mexican restaurant. Prices were reasonable.

I’ve eaten in the restaurant before, good vibes and food, but takeout is where my heart’s at. I love how consistent this place is and I’ve loved every menu item I’ve tried. The campechano street tacos have my heart.

This hidden gem is authentic Mexican cooking at its finest! They start you off with thin, flavorful salsa—my favorite. The enchiladas were perfectly sauced, and the beans were truly amazing.The guacamole was fresh and margaritas were the best. The Carne Asada was absolutely, delectable, perfectly charred and, served with sides. It's not strictly traditional, but it is high-quality, delicious, and amazing.

Actually, my order was messed up twice. However, I am giving this restaurant 5 stars because the food was delicious, our waiter was nice and attentive and others who worked there were always smiling. We always enjoy eating there and this night was no exception!!

The food was good. We were seated immediately as there were very few people in the restaurant. It took forever for a server to greet us and even longer for him to come back with our drinks. We eventually had to ask for chips and salsa after we ordered food and he had not brought any. We had to ask for silverware and eventually the check. I did not get the feeling he wanted to serve us.
