Well, the new menu prices are astronomical! Prices just went up $8s on average. Won't be returning for a $24 doller burrito. Prices on website are not updated to the new menu at this time. 😵

We ordered take Out (3 burritos) in the restaurant with an amazing service. Nonetheless Even if they were good, the burritos were not the best I have had, the flavour of the shredded chicken was Good but the portions were a Little small.
Overall we were satisfied but something was missing

This is one of my favorite restaurants. The food is always extraordinary. The margaritas are very good as well but very strong so be careful. The only complaint I have ever had is with the service. I have been going here for years and the service has always been lacking. The atmosphere is great but it can be abit loud in the main dining room.

Some of the best Mexican food I’ve had in years. The food is a little more upscale, which is why it’s so delicious. The sauces are excellent.

My wife and I have been dining, here, almost weekly, for years; usually on Thursday (ladies day 2 for 1 margueritas). The food is the best Mexican we have ever had (and we go to Mexico regularly). The green sauce and the poblano sauces are amazingly flavorful. The enchiladas, rellenos, and carne asada with rosemary are delicious. The rice and black beans are the best. Their chips are warm and tasty, the best anywhere. The margueritas are strong and flavorful. We usually have the same server, Lilly, who is the warmest, sweetest, and most attentive waitress you will ever find. It is her outstanding service that makes the experience complete, and keeps us coming back.
Although, recently she has not been there on Thursdays, and we are wondering what happened. We wish she were there on Thursdays.

Pretty disappointed with this place. The service wasn’t good the staff checked on every table around us multiple times but never once came to see how we were doing. On top of that, both our plates were overcharged by $6. It’s a shame because the restaurant itself is really nice and we love Mexican food, but we won’t be coming back.

Great Food, Great Beverages, and a Huge Patio! The Service has always been first rate. We love this place! It's not for the budget minded, unless you hit Happy Hour, but we'll worth the price in our humble opinion. Pura Vida 😁

Our server Lilly was incredible! The whole staff anticipated all of mine and my husband's needs and were very attentive, without being invasive! The food was incredible and the atmosphere was very cute and fun! It's been a long time since I have had such a pleasant experience going out to eat!
