I visited your restaurant on and ordered the Nacho Fajita from the lunch specials menu, which is clearly listed at $10. When I received the bill, I was charged $15 for the item. I pointed this out to the server, who said the computer system shows $15. While I understand systems can sometimes override menu prices, the advertised price on the lunch special menu is $10, and that’s the price I expected to pay. Under consumer protection guidelines (and basic fairness), customers should be charged the displayed menu price, not a higher amount due to a system discrepancy—especially when the lower price is part of a promoted lunch special.

Extremely good food and the ladies are very sweet and attractive. The guy at the bar is a very nice person and everyone is always happy to serve drinks and food. Attractive smiles and personalities here. The food will never disappoint and neither will the people!!

Showed up here around 9pm and placed an order of fish tacos to-go. The cashier guy wasn’t very friendly. I didn’t want to wait inside so I told him I’d just be in the car. While I was waiting, they started to close up and locked the door. I had to knock on a window for a server to come open the door. The fish tacos ended up being good. I probably wouldn’t come back here if I was in the area again.

Its like if you werent hispanic you were automatically given stares because you are white. Very racist atmosphere, and my husband is Hispanic, Mexican infact, from Vera Cruz, so i really didnt understand the treatment

At least what I ordered was good. The service was not good. The servers sitting at a table talking very loudly

Food is horrible prices are different on bill than the menu. Asked for a side of sour cream $2.00 for a spoonful. I understand inflation but no. I will never return.

Went on a Saturday evening. There were 3 tables of people and one group of 8-10. The music was aggressively loud. They had a DJ who also was singing karaoke. We were given a table directly under the speaker and couldn't even talk to each other without yelling. It was worse than being at a rock concert. It is not a large restaurant. There were probably 25 open tables.
It took about 45 minutes to get our order. They got one order wrong and goofed it up the second time, too. Rather than Spanish rice, they gave us plai white jasmine rice with corn and frozen carrots. It was bizarre. The margaritas were bland and they got one of those wrong, too. Probably because the music was so loud the waitress couldn't hear us. We were also given some warm shrimp broth drink thing, they didn't say what it was, just put them on the table. No chips and salsa.
It was a bizarre experience and we all left with headaches.

They are very very late, we are regular customers, my family and I but they are very late even when there are not many people rating 6
To the waitresses a little more friendliness rating 7
Food 8
Cheer up my people if you can??

Kid-friendliness: Yes it is a good place to take children
Just not too late after 6 onwards, it's more like for adults who love ? ?
But early or afternoon is fine for the whole family.

This place was great! And I had the most beautiful waitress ever, she looked exactly like Jenna Ortega and she was on point from start to finish. Definitely recommend to others
