Horrible service. Took 4 trips to just get the things to the table needed to eat a proper meal. An example, napkins were asked for 3 times and weren't brought until the 4th trip. Waitress was very unpleasant. By the time I got to eat my food, it was cold. Usually get good, enjoyable service in the past. Plus then she brought us the wrong ticket that was about $30 more than our ticket.
The salsa is the best in town as it has just the right heat, and like always the food came out fast and

Best tacos in town! Easily the best tasting tacos, with the highest quality ingredients, not to mention the most generous portion size! You can't go wrong here with the regular, fajitas, or street tacos. They actually grill the tortillas, so they are wonderful, warm, and don't break on you! You can customize your taco toppings here with no problems and the upcharges for add-on's are reasonable and make you feel like an appreciated customer. Most places in Gadsden have started upcharging any modification at a rate that makes me feel bullied, but not this place! They act like they really want you to enjoy your food, which is how it should be! I had never been in this restaurant until about 2 months ago when I tried to eat at C&J's next door (I love their food, but their service leaves a lot to be desired) and they would not seat me at 4:00 pm (I get that they must not have had staff, and it is a weird time to eat, but I was hungry so going to a restaurant expecting food didn't seem unreasonable) and they said they could not seat me for 30-45 minutes. I asked my companions if they wanted to try "the place next door" as we were all starving, and they said sure. We walked in and were blown away by how beautiful this restaurant is! From the outside it looks scary and not so nice (which is why I had never been here) but the interior is stunning! Huge picture windows line the entire back of the building, showcasing tons of natural light and beautiful views of the river. The interior has a bright and warm feel that is so comfortable and enjoyable. The staff were happy to see us and instantly sat us a a large comfortable booth with a beautiful view and had chips and salsa in front of us in 1 minute flat. Our food didn't take 10 minutes to arrive after that, and everyone loved their meal. The chips and salsa here are great; the salsa is the best in town, the chips could be a little thinner, but it's not like I'm going somewhere else for better chips. The rice, beans, side salad, guac, are all exactly what you expect. Every entree I've tried here has been great, but I keep going back to all the incredible taco choices! The only thing I avoid here is the cheese dip, which seems a little runny and lacking in cheese flavor, which is not a problem (for me) as they load my tacos up with fresh delicious grated-to-order cheese. I can't believe I've been missing out on this place for all the years I've lived here! I'm not making that mistake anymore - I think I've been here twice a week since discovering it - it is just that good!

The food was cold and didn’t have any flavor at all!! The manager said they haven’t had any complaints that day so she refused to give us a refund! I only took three bites from the meal and with the refusal of refund I feel like I been robbed!! 10/10 don’t recommend!!!!!

We been there 2x, both times they forget half our order. Tonight my husband received his meal, 20 mins later mine. Waiter left, then about 10 mins go by, waiter realized, They forgot to bring our child his order. Waited another 18 mins and our child got his meal to go and eat in the car on the way home. No Refills on drinksHad steak reorder medium well, both times was very well doneFirst visit, order fried ice cream. Never received. Got check went to pay. I told them the dessert I paid for was the tip.
Vegetarian options: I’m not a vegetarian but sometimes I go without having meat. It was so nice to have a big selection on vegetarian options ?

Very good food for a good price...came out quickly everyone was friendly...eveything is well seasoned and the large cheese dip is HUGE....I appreciate that the owner is friendly an makes contact with his patrons and the prices are not outrageous. This location is different from the number 2 location I will come back here especially at lunch time they also have daily specials! The chips are also always warm and they serve every guest a individual salsa.
