Roaches crawled across the food at a company event. Instead of being apologetic, the new management laughed and said we have a bug man comes. The company was still charged the full price. 0/10 would not recommend.

We didn't realize we'd come in right before the kitchen closed, but they were really kind to us and served us anyway. The atmosphere was warm and felt like home. The food was delicious. Loved it here!

The food Was great, large portions for lunch. The décor could use some updating and many of the seats need new upholstery. Staff was prompt and friendly. Would definitely go back

My first time here, met up with a friend.I had the Labamba rice with grilled chicken……OMG, it was sooo good! It was hot, fresh & loaded with flavor. I’ll be back!

My first visit here and OMG the food was off the chain. Best quesidella I have ever had. Rice and beans was very flavorful. The complimentary salsa with chips was delicious. Very friendly staff.Only negative I have is the facility is very run down and looks dirty. The dust covered vents and ceiling fans and water damage ceiling tiles was a turn off. I will be back for the food, but probably will take out next time.

The food was great. The customer service was subpar. The waitress never came back to refill any drinks. We had dirty looks on the way out and we still left her a $20 tip she didn’t deserve. Definitely won’t be back!

This place has gone downhill exponentially since the old days of Pepitos. 15 min to get an additional order of cheese dip to our table. We are done with our meal and still don’t have additional order of chips requested 15 mins ago. I guess Covid got their dishwasher as they supply the cheapest flaccid plastic wear to use for in person dining. I’ve waived off several flies from my food. Very very disappointed.

Worst customer service ever. we had to find a waiter to come take our order. He never did check back to see if we needed a refill or anything else. We requested a to go cup and he brought a empty cup about 10 minutes later. We had to ask twice for napkins. when checking out, the cashier asked if everything was OK. I told her no. She did not even ask what was wrong or how they could improve. I then asked her did she want to know what was wrong and she said no there’s nothing she could do because she’s just an employee. There was no manager on duty to talk to. There are too many Mexican restaurants in town to choose from that has better service than this.

Authentic family style Mexican restaurant. No frills. Perfect. Great chips and salsa.

This was our first time to try this place and it was horrible. It wasn’t very busy at all when we went. From the start the hostess was very rude when we were getting seated. She moved plates from the table and didn’t wipe the table and just put our menus down. The table was nasty. The waiter finally came to take our drink orders and when she brought our kids drink we asked for a straw and it never came. We sat and sat and sat for an hour and the waiter never once came to check on us so we could ask what was taking so long. The guest behind us waited and hour as well and their food came out wrong. We finally decided to leave and told the hostess at the front we were leaving and that we had been here an hour and the food hadn’t come. She then decided to get an attitude with my wife and demanded we pay for the chips and the drink and started laughing before someone else stepped in and said we were good to go. Never again will we go back to this place. Very disappointed.
