Pizza tasted like an old oily pan, Mexican chicken in burritos looked like a chicken pot pie mix and the chicken tasted boiled and the rice was hard and had no taste. Was definitely a disappointment after growing up eating here and wanted to take our kids.

Jeff's special is always a favorite, plenty of toppings and a nice crispy thin crust! Homemade corn tortillas chips with awesome green sauce and excellent salsa. Service is always impeccable and exceptionally nice waitresses that are prompt to serve you, Style is cool with old time jukebox located at your table. Mexican decor and exceptionally clean.

Every single time we order carry out, they mess up the order. Every single time. I even specify that the cheese enchilada combo meal is what we want, and every time they just put one cheese enchilada into the container, nothing else. Then they tie up the bags so you can’t check to make sure the order is correct before you leave. When you call to report the error, they try to offer a credit for your next order, then hassle you when you try to use it. Gem City has gone down hill ever since COVID. How hard is it to get an order correct? They don’t seem to care about accuracy or customer service anymore. Will not be giving them anymore business. Sad, because we’ve been customers for almost 25 yrs.

Don't get carry out from them. They get the order wrong every single time. You call to report it, they offer you a credit on a future order, then when you try to use it, they act like it's a hassle, when THEY are the ones that messed up in the first place. They tie the carry out bags shut so you can't check the order for accuracy. Twice, I've ordered the stuffed steak fajitas and the meat has been overcooked to the point it's burned dry and can't be chewed. How hard is it to see that and realize it shouldn't be served? Gem City has gone downhill massively since COVID. They don't care about accuracy, quality, or customer service anymore. After 25 years of being a customer, I'm finished.

Not the slightest bit Mexican. The chicken used in the tacos appears to be cubed and boiled...not grilled. The margherita pizza did not have fresh basil on it. The mexican rice was absolutely tasteless. Even the appetizers (jalapeno poppers) were not good. They were overcooked. Overall the experience was gross.

Best pizza in Quincy, and the house made chips and salsa are second to none! Don’t miss this local gem in the Gem City!
