Well I came here for taco Tuesday about 730p. The taco bar was down to the last of what was left! We ordered 2 house margaritas and those alone were $28 bucks!!! Those two drinks cost more than the taco bar $2.99 on Tuesday (I had 3 came to $8.98) and my date ordered the enchiladas suizas $17.99. Her dish looked like it was gonna taste good. I probably won't order their margaritas again.

We took the FIL here for lunch in the weekend and had a great experience. Service was ok food was amazing. They were having an event (funeral?) but there was plenty of tables available. Ambiance was normal restaurant vibes (not fancy or intimate). Chips and salsa is fantastic. Chips are light and crispy, they were perfect. Table side guac was great, it's a little pricy but felt like it was worth it. Carne asada plate was amazing, steak was tender and the flavor was so good. Best steak I've had at a Mexican restaurant in a long time. The chimichurri sauce was on point. Pork Chili Verde was great, the FIL loved it. It was tender and flavorful. Beans and rice were good probably above average. This place is on the higher side of an everyday Mexican restaurant but well worth it. Definitely check it out.

I went to dinner here on Monday with 6 of my girlfriends. We were sitting on the patio. I have been here several times before and each time the food has gotten worse. First I was brought the wrong thing and then I had to wait for the correct order while my friends ate. The service was terrible. The waitress was nonexistent most of the time. I tried to get her attention for a refill on my ice tea and she just ran past our table. I prices have gone up and the food and service have hit a new low. Will NOT be going back!!!!

Chips and salsa so good... margaritas are fire! Loved this little hidden gem! Shrimp salad is so fresh and light. Service is average (sorry may need some work) ambiance is chill.

I loved it here. We came after my son's track meet yesterday. As soon as We walked in there was a beautiful picture of Frida! Frida pictures are always a plus for me. The ambiance was pretty and modern. We got seated right away and the hostess was nice. Our server was Daniel he was really nice and attentive. All our food was great. The salsa was tasty. I enjoyed it. I would definitely come back.

Pleasant and friendly service. Food was only okay, but I did not order a particularly interesting dish, so that's on me. It was nice to be in a restaurant that was not so noisy that you had to yell to be heard.

The only reason I gave a 3 star is because we were outside, it was a bit cold and they turned the heaters on and off and is not enough. The rest was

Went to Riverside for a Business trip and was treated to this restaurant. Our host recommended the Carne Asada Platter. I ordered the Carne Asada with salad, corn & tortilla. The Carne was very tasty and me along with my workmates who ordered the same meal enjoyed our lunch.
