I went there due to the high ratings. I really wanted to like this place but food was not good. I asked if salsa was fresh or from a can and waitress said “it was not from a can or jar. ” It was not fresh it’s either from a can or jar. The beans, all sauces are from a can or a jar! I was disappointed but you have to try everything at least once, that was my once!

Salsa gets a D- itself. It wasn't even salsa AND they charge for it. The margaritas might not have even had alcohol in them. The food was average at best. They were understaffed and crammed into a tight space. Could not for the life of me figure out how this place has good reviews and it's overpriced.Wheelchair accessibility: Good luck. Very tight quarters.

This place is far from 5 stars. We went here due to the 5 star review. Food was below average. Chips were cold, “salsa” tasted like it was from a car. Chips and salsa are NOT complementary. Place is way too small and not enough people to serve.

I am honestly not sure why this place is rated so high. We tried it based on reviews. The place was crowded with only 2 waitresses trying to take care of everyone. This caused the service to be poor. Not friendly and very matter of fact. It is not the waitress fault that they were understaffed.I found it ridiculous that at a Mexican food restaurant, we had to pay for chips and salsa. They were not good at all. The chips were cold and the salsa had 0 flavor.I got the steak fajita quesadilla and it was pretty good. The best thing on the plate was the guacamole, which was passable. A couple people in our group of 4 got margaritas (watermelon and strawberry) and said they were not great.Overall, I cannot recommend this place at all. Poor service and mediocre food. We had high hopes based on the reviews and were sorely disappointed.
