The food was top notch, a little pricey compared to other places we've ventured to, but not breaking the bank.The bartender was our server, so he was overwhelmed with too many customers, it happens, I've worked in the bar industry that sold food and when your server/servers call in "sick" or "late", u gotta keep on keeping on. So I don't fault him.Will definitely come back, the salsa & chips were YUMMMMMMM! (I'm kind of a salsa snob)

The atmosphere was great. Our waiter was very attentive. Food came out quick, and honestly, it was delicious.My only complaint is that there should be more transparency on the alcoholic beverages. There are no prices on the menu stating the cost of alcohol.

I had seen this place many times driving by, so I decided to stop. All I could think was, why didn't I stop sooner. The food is fantastic. The only suggestion I would make is to start adding beans and rice on the side of the burrito, but other than that, I got a new favorite

Been looking for a quality Mexican restaurant since we moved from Arizona and this is it! Came in for weekend lunch and it wasn't crowded, service was friendly with great recommendations. Al pastor and chicken were really delicious, will definitely go back!

The food was outstanding in flavor, portions, and fair pricing. Highly recommend!Service was lacking. When they came to our table, they were wonderfully pleasant. The issue was that they were inattentive.

Good food, their chips, and salsa are great. A little heat but not overdone. Guacamole was also good but small, even for large size. Reasonably priced and generous portions for the entrees, they bring a lot of chips and are very fresh and
