We were traveling home, and couldn't find anywhere to eat, despite looking for over an hour. We finally settled on this place, since the online reviews only showed complaints about Service. We figured that we are pretty easy-going, so if the food was good, we would probably be a family that they would be nice too and service would not be an issue. Our server was nice, but spoke zero English so ordering was a challenge. We tried repeating, pointing to the menu, and confirming with him, and he did what he could considering the obvious language barrier, but food was wrong. We didn't say anything, as we had a feeling the language barrier would be an issue. It was a gamble that we opted in for. It appeared all staff we encountered did not speak English, which made it hard to speak with any of them. That being said, they were all patient and kind, which we reciprocated. Service was good. As for the food, I wouldn't recommend this place but in a pinch with nowhere else to go, I would go back. All the food tasted very low quality commercial. The salsa and guacamole tasted bland, and the salsas were an odd puree. The kids pizza, which I thought was odd to offer, is not good. It should come off the menu and be replaced with an Authentic Mexican pizza. You'd expect authentic music, but instead we listened to today's top pop. Overall, we didn't encounter the service issues that others posted online. The food is meh to say the least, but it wasn't bad, and the place seemed clean.

Probably the best Mexican you can find in Madison. It's decent for GA but anybody expecting close to the border taste, don't get your hopes up. I compare it to more of a tex-mex style. It's definitely "Americanized". I'm from AZ and out there we only have true authentic Mexican food. I'd say this is like 25% the way there. But for any natural born Georgian this is probably great Mexican food. I'll definitely stop by again and again as I already have. But I'm gonna have to plan a trip to Arizona for that authentic taste here soon. Miss it so much.

Took us 20 minutes to get our drink order another 10 to get our food order another 15 to get our food which was cold. My nachos barely had any cheese on them. My son's french fries were burnt. Took forever to wave down the waitress to even get one refill of water and the bill. The men's bathroom door does not have a knob on the outside does not lock. The toilet does not flush. Is half the size of a single stall truck stop bathroom.

We dined in. Food was fast and hot but they got my order wrong.
Me and my wife eat here at least once a week. Very authentic and fresh Mexican food. Their rice is the best I've ever had. Family-like environment when you dine in and a down to earth owner.

Nice little restaurant.The food was OK but had an overwhelming sweet flavor in most items.Perhaps it was too much all spice or oregano.Service was cordial and prices fair.

Lack of communication (misunderstanding due to a language barrier) almost caused us to eat dinner on down the road. I was glad we got everything together because this was where we wanted to eat dinner.Parking: It was dinner time. They don't have a large parking area, guessing 20-25 cars limit.

Just randomly came across this place. It's clean enough, but the service was really slow and the food was pretty bad.
So good!
