This cozy and fabulously clean restaurant is simply amazing! First of all, no wait but not to say this place wasn't busy. - it had a steady flow of customers eating in and taking out. Every food had its own distinct flavor - from the salsa AND fresh tortilla chips to my absolutely delicious vegetarian quesadilla to the rice and especially the guacamole! Hubby had the tamales and he loved them. Prices were super reasonable for the quality and they have a special lunch menu in addition to their dinner menu. My biggest problem was that I totally overate the mouthwatering salsa and chips and wanted to eat my entire meal, so I was pretty full belly when we left. Our server was excellent, efficient, and funny. They don't serve alcoholic beverages but don't let that little tidbit hold you back; you must try this gem

This was my first visit to this restaurant. The cheese dip and chips were great! They brought out fresh, hot chips. For the main course, I had the Tomales. They were tender and juicy, unlike some other restaurants where they are very dry.I'll be going back.

This is the most bipolar restaurant I know of. I visited five times over the course of the past year. Last was over a month ago.Two of those visits were great. Three were problematic.Let me just focus on the last.Sat down and ordered. I got my tea but no chips and salsa. Well, the chips and salsa came at the same time my meal did. I was impressed with the speed at which they prepared the meal. Then I saw why it was so fast: They didn't bother to cook it.It was fajitas. Those should be seared well with a bit of char on the meat and the veggies caramelized. No. This meat was cooked just to the point of turning gray. It was chewy because it was under cooked. The vegetables were cold and crunchy. Crunchy is good in a salad. Not good in fajitas. Nor was the stem of the tomato that was included in the mess.The beans and rice were lukewarm. That is not only unappetizing. It is a health hazard. Those should be served hot!The final insult? The foil wrapped tortillas were plopped right down into the beans. Think about that. Someone handles that foil with bare hands, then drops their germs in your food. Disgusting.Nice folks run this restaurant. They were a great success because the food used to be fantastic. But that success made someone there ambivalent about quality control.I thought I'd talk to the manager. Well, I saw him and the owner both standing by the kitchen. That actually increased my anger. They were standing right there the whole time that slop-bucket of a meal was prepared. But they didn't glance at the plate on the way out. And apparently they had not checked the temperature of the beans and rice. I was too worked up to talk. I paid for the meal and left for good.I hope they get it fixed.
