Used to be great. Definitely not great anymore.
Food is disappointing at best and overpriced for the portion size.
Service just isn't what it used to be.
Sad that its gone downhill so much over the years. I won't eat here again; I'll go down the street to El Chuy instead where they act like they're happy to have you as a customer.

Inconsistant with other times we have eaten there. Macho Burrito was covered with what tasted like enchilada sauce. Steak fajita was fairly good but not much meat. Taco salad was mostly lettuce, very little meat,  little tomato and cheese, no dressing - had to request salsa to put on it.

This place has amazing food. It’s our favorite place to get Mexican food. Love the chips, salsa, and refried beans at the beginning and the food is always fresh and high quality. The staff are great and always happy to see us. The chef is very detail oriented and cares about every dish he sends out. Definitely a hidden gem in Shelley.

They make the best pollo al ajo I’ve ever had. All the food is great, the service is great, it’s all great. Do yourself a favor and check it out for yourself.

I decided to give this place a shot since I keep hearing how good it is. Attached is a picture I of what I got. It was the nastiest food ever ! The carne Asada had zero seasoning in it and it was bland. The rice was hard and tasted old. Whatever that sauce is on the enchilada was gross. I took a small bite and spit it out. I will definitely NOT be going back after this experience. It was a waste of money and it went straight in the garbage.

I always enjoy the chicken taquitos. I also like how they offer both salsa and refried beans with the chips. From what I've seen, they don't refill the chips unless you ask. The place is a little run-down.

This might have been my worst experience with spanish food ever. I ordered arrow con pollo and pollo a la Diabla. The arrow con pollo which is pictured on the left was totally incorrect. I've been all across America. Arrow con pollo is suppose to be chicken, cheese, rice. Red sauce is not suppose to be in that dish. They basically made a double portion of Diabla. The cheese they used was american instead of queso and it tasted funny. Never have I had carrots and celery in that dish. The chicken was rubbery. You can't just make up your own recipes and call it what you want. The cook needs training. They dressed it with a side salad like I was to stupid to know better. They lost alot of business. My friends and I will not be returning.
