average food, horrible service, down right rude, never again, they should not be in business and since we were one of three tables, hopefully not much longer.

We had seen some really good reviews, but wondered how good a Mexican restaurant could be in the middle of Iowa - we were stunned! The restaurant is in a hotel, but don't let that scare you. The restaurant was well decorated, we were greeted and seated immediately. The restaurant was probably 3/4 full, a good sign also. A bowl of chips and salsa came out immediately, fresh made and all in house. Margarita's were exception, large, and only $7 each. The food was very good, very authentic, possibly the best we've had outside of Mexico. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend the restaurant.

Visited on 7/1/25 between 3:15pm-4pm. Slow service when its dead empty inside a space with seating for over 100 patrons. Walked in and waited up front while 1 worker is just sitting at the bar watching a spanish soccer game (never got up once) & another is in and out between the work area up front & backroom, before finally coming to seat me 5 minutes later & another working the kitchen. Another party of 2 came in 5 minutes later and that was it before leaving. Did take longer than expected given time of day with no patronage. Restaurant/BW hotel location is out on the NW edge of town, had been some former BBQ place (Buford's) 2-3 years ago based on Google Street View... suspect according to the map on FB check-in, this restaurant used to be inside or right outside the mall before it got torn down and moved into this hotel restaurant space. Food was decent for the price & the waitress was friendly, but speed of service when its dead inside is the issue.

Food was terrible. Four of us ordered different meals and none of us were happy. Service was good hence two stars instead of one. Parking was terrible too

Service was slow. Not a very friendly waitress. Food was not good. Rice tasted like fish. Salsa was watery. Food was not very hot. Had to ask for taco I ordered and never got my cheese.
