We like eating here before heading to Whistle Stop next door! Food is good. Service has been good every time we have gone.

Several pieces of steak in my street tacos were burnt. My husband’s quesadilla was extremely bland. Also, our drinks were too strong. The price we paid was not worth the poor quality food and drinks that we received.

I ordered cheese dip, a lime margarita and fajita. The cheese dip was cold, there was red lipstick on my margarita glass. When I pointed it out to the waiter he held the glass in front of him staring at it as if I was being untruthful. After he saw the lipstick he started scratching it off with his fingers. Finally he went to pour the same margarita into another glass! Lastly the fajita plate wasn’t sizzling, the fajita wasn’t flavorful at all, the tortillas were overheated so they were hard to chew and the guacamole wasn’t fresh. Total waste of time and money!

My partner and I went to get food. We were sat down by the host.We waited 5 minutes and were not talked to or greeted and no one came by to get our drink order we thought they were just running behind into a group of 3 came in after us and were instantly serviced and was greeted sever. This restaurant was very rude and dismissive and I do not recommend to anyone at all.

The service was good. The bathrooms need attention, and they need a plumber. The food is great.

My husband and I took our children here for dinner a few weeks ago. We waited a long time to order and receive our food. When our food finally did come out, only 3 of the 4 orders was placed on the table. I had to wait an extra 10 minutes to receive mine, which at that point, the rest of my family was almost done with their meals. My margarita had WAY too much sour mix in it. Our waitress was not attentive and never checked up on us. The servers around us had way more personality and engaged with their customers while ours was nowhere to be found. Will not be returning.

This was one of the worst experiences we had a restaurant. The waiter was extremely rude the entire time, but what was baffling was the bill. The prices charged did not match the menu and we were charged a $3.99 “no cash fee”, which we weren’t aware of until our card was ran. We will never go back.

My first time eating here, but it's my son's favorite Mexican restaurant to eat at. It's a nice atmosphere inside, so I will come back later to dine in. However, there's a language barrier here no one hardly speaks English well here and that's a problem for me. In my honest opinion, someone should at least be bilingual if you are going to have an establishment where people predominantly speak English! ? On a positive note, my food was delicious. I ordered the nachos supreme with everything. They have a seating area outside as well. It's located in the heart of downtown Opelika. So, if you're ever in the Opelika/Auburn area, you should give it a try. I don't think you'll be disappointed.
