Meh. Ordered takeout online. Online order showed it would be ready in 20 mins, I arrived in 15, order was already packed and ready I drove the 3 minutes home. When I open the container the carnitas was cold, not even room temp. Additionally when ordering on line they “require” you choose a salsa type and bean type. I chose the black tomatillo salsa and refried beans, I received green salsa and black beans. Why offer the choice if you’re not going to give it to the customer. Not worth over $20.
I had the shrimp taco plate and it was delicious!!! This place is super clean and the restroom also. I will definitely come back !!
I find most Mexican food is either super spicy or just bland. This place hits both. The salsa is really spicy but if you don't use it the food is just bland. They should focus more on flavor instead of burning your taste buds.
Fine, traditional style Mexican food in a tucked portion of a strip mall. Takeout available. No skool but worth the trip.
Do not go here. I thought my wife and I could have a nice Cinco de Mayo meal so I ordered through their online system at 4:10pm for a 6:30pm pickup. One logical person would assume that would be enough lead time to have your order ready when you get there. With a half full restaurant there was a line of about 10 people waiting for pickup orders. At about 7:30pm some orders trickled out. After about the 3rd one I asked to speak to the manager. They seemed to have lost the receipt and said they could have it ready in 10 minutes. I had already been waiting an hour for an order placed over 2 hours before the pickup time so I decided to cancel my order. I asked if there was anything they could do if I ever decided to come back. They said they couldn’t and offered me a to go margarita as a consolation prize.I just moved to the area and was hoping to find a great Mexican restaurant. Hopefully the owners and management will read this and reach out to me to rectify. Based on what I witnessed tonight, it seems highly unlikely.
OMG!The worst Burrito I ever had… ??????. Please don’t go to this place and i will never recommend this restaurant to anyone. The employees are super rude. It’s just a waste of money. The employees could not differentiate the grill beef and chicken with boiled/steamed. Please please please don’t waste your money don’t go to this place. I can not name this place a restaurant. Their sign says Mexican Grill but the employees don’t know what grilled chicken is SO SO SAD.
Horrible experience, Horrible service, coffee was cold, it's coffee!! Server tells me because you added creamer... NO!!!!Carnitas tacos cold, server is going to say, tacos are cold because of the Pico de Gallo, lettuce and cheese... what is this TACO BELL!!! ACTUALLY TACO BELL WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER!!!! 1ST time guest and will never be back and by the way it's expensive!!!DO NOT STOP!!! SUBWAY NEXT DOOR IS A BETTER OPTION!!!!
Good, tasty, authentic Mexican food, a bit on the expensive side. Nice atmosphere and decor.
Great staff and atmosphere. Lots of menu choices.
I liked my chili Relleno and cheese enchilada.
Restaurantji Recommends
This enchilada was $8. You'd think the sauce is authentic.. The agua de horchata was waaaaayyy too sweet..my friend had the crispy taco she said it was good. Overall no . I don't recommend.
The owner is a racist person. If you aren’t white don’t go in there.
Solid Mexican food - wife loves the drinks. Great service in a nice location. Priced well.
Foods decent but man the service is horrible . And I mean horrible . Our waitress got us waters then abandoned us. Keep in mind that only about 6 tables had people at them. So after 20 min I went inside and asked for service. She came out took our order . Then never brought my beer. Then another waitress brought out food . I asked for my beer. Other waitress brought it . Dinners almost over at that point . Then trying to get the bill ? It was getting comical at that point how bad the service was …. No excuse … place was empty Tuesday night …. They had 3 waitresses for 6 tables and 2 of them including our waitress was no where to be seen …
Local restaurant with pretty good food and service
