My first observation was the chips are from a box. Salsa likely from a can. Could improvement those easily. Food was hot, rice was yummy and beans were pretty good. I had chicken enchiladas and a beef hardshell taco . Enchiladas were good. Taco was ok. Great atmosphere! Nice staff!

Food was fine, but nothing special. We ate here last week and it was fine but I wish we had a better experience. I can’t remember what our servers name was but she didn’t even check on us once until we were almost done eating. We felt like she was more interested in conversation with her coworkers than in providing a good experience

It wasn't what I expected. The menu looks good, but the food didn't taste good. Apparently, they use canned sauce on the food they serve, and the beans also look canned.

Wonderful people. Excellent food. We had the Carne Adobada and Carne Asada tacos and they were excellent. Thanks again for a lovely experience. If we happen to be on another trip closeby/passing through we'll be sure to drop in!

Maybe don't accept take out orders if you're swamped. Had me waiting an hour for food that they didn't even start on. Lazy teens work at this place and their food is only good when you're drunk, and don't taste how stale the chips are. Won't be eating here anymore, quality and service has gone down hill.
