The food tasted fresh and wasn’t overly salty like most restaurants are serving these days. The salsa actually had a little kick but wasn’t very hot and the guacamole tasted like it had been made within only a few hours. For a little constructive criticism, I would have liked a little onion (or a little more if there was some) in the salsa, and the chicken in the California burrito, while perfectly cooked in that it was very tender, could have used a touch of Mexican seasoning (no extra salt though—that part was perfect).

Pleasant atmosphere, delicious authentic Mexican food. Comparable prices and large servings. You definitely get your money's worth.

YUM YUM YUM, indeed, baby! This spot came in HOT and said, “Let me show you how it’s DONE.”

The food? Flavortown couture. Every dish turned the party and left no crumbs—literally and figuratively. Each bite was a death drop into delicious.

Now the service? Top-tier, full fantasy. These queens didn’t miss a beat—kind, attentive, and giving us full-on five-star charisma, uniqueness, nerve, and talent.

And let’s talk about those beers… HONEY. We are OBSESSED with those gargantuan glam goblets of brew. Big beers? Big mood. Big fan. Period.

Final verdict: They ate, we drank, and the whole experience?

Sickening. No notes. Shantay, we’ll STAY. 🍺✨💃

Three times I've been there for the same item. Hoping I was just going to get a different cook. Very bland food. Told the waitress to spice it up. She said we only cook it one way. Very very disappointed. After the third trip I will not be coming back

I ordered the California Burrito and it had ZERO flavor, the meat was unseasoned and very dry. I believe the use French Fries as well as a filler. Others had a Beef Quesadilla that had ZERO flavor and extremely runny beef. The Air Conditioning was also apparently not working so it was extremely hot. It is also high priced for non authentic Mexican food. I do not recommend this place at all.

Would give 0 stars if it would allow it. When this place first opened, it was amazing. Great service and great food. The last two times we chose to eat there, the service had been declining. Bad day? Bad timing? Give it another shot…This last visit, we were told to seat ourselves, 10 minutes later a server asked us for our drink order and we asked for menus. She returned with drinks, still no menus 🙄requested menus again. 10 MORE minutes no menus. Finally we retrieved our own menus from the hostess stand. Passed server on the way back, asked for at least some cheese dip, we are starving… 5 MORE minutes she delivered cheese dip and we asked for more chips for the dip( table of 4) and to take our order. She said she would be back to take our order. 10 MORE minutes, no chips, no waitress. Finally we managed to get her attention and asked her to just bring the check for the drinks but not to include the dip as we couldn’t eat with NO chips. No apologies, nothing said at all, she returned with our check, apparently no time issues with this part of the “service” and went back to whatever had been more important than serving customers. Disappointing turn of events as this had been a great place at one time. Where I used to recommend this establishment, I will no longer do so. Instead, I will tell people to beware unless they don’t mind being potentially ignored. Visit at your own risk of not being served. Yet another local place gone to crap because of poor service. We won’t be returning.
