From the second I used the restroom I had a bad feeling. The floor is falling in and the sink is ready to fall over. The salsa was obviously store bought with cilantro added in. The shrimp burrito was doughy with shrimp rolled in. The steak was the thinnest I have ever seen. Was like eating leather. The waitress was by herself but did a great job trying to keep up. I was told how great the place is but that is obviously not true. Worst Mexican restaurant that I have ever been to.

You never get a second chance to make a positive first impression on a customer and, this notion is a concern central to the patrons and owners of restaurants, for better or for worse. Four-star Yelp ratings suggest the Blue Ray Mexican Grill is a worthy recipient of your dining dollars. Our singular experience puts us at odds with this notion. This place stands as a culinary first for us. It is the only restaurant -- ever -- to serve us stale beef. Our Order Carne Asada and Steak Fajitas. On arrival before dinner was the traditional appetizer of corn chips with the conventional tangy, spicey sauce. The chips were stale. The sauce presents an odd taste. The Steak Fajitas? The meat was stale. The grilled peppers and onions were delicious. We would have ordered grilled vegetables only if we had known the meat would be stale. The side dish of rice, refried beans, and chopped salad bits with guacamole stood the test of passable to the taste at best. Browning of the greens and a tasteless guacamole were notable. Our approach is to order entrees without the Tortillas at Mexican Restaurants. Getting the bread out of the mix is the only way to determine whether the ingredients are tasty and fresh. Stated differently, the Tortillas can mask undesirable qualities in ingredients. The Carne Asada? The meat was stale. Similar observations to those above apply to the sides served with this entree. Stale and tasteless are different qualities that present corollary characteristics in foods. Both are undesirable. By stale, we mean the meat was old or not fresh, as when long-term storage in a freezer yields freezer burn. By tasteless, we mean a food lacks flavor that could stem from inadequate seasoning, poor cooking techniques, or the nature of the food itself. Our dining experience here was a nightmare akin to a release the culinary Kracken moment in our bodies and, a waste of money ($45 plus tip). We won't return.

Was told to have a seat in the way she should be with me shortly, and I sat at my table for nearly 15 minutes watching my waitress. I have a conversation with the only other table in the restaurant. So after 15 minutes without a menu, I drink chips any acknowledgment, I left there was literally only one other table of customers in the restaurant. Poor inexcusable service.

We travel all over the country, and have discovered that generally, Mexican food is more reliable than most other types. However, this time we were disappointed in the food. We came here based on the good reviews, which obviously are over rated. The food was pretty bland with the exception of way too much salt. Don't waste your time and money here.

This restaurant has a lot of potential. As for now, it does serve a purpose of providing some mexican food for the locals.
