I can't believe I never stopped in here until my mother expressed interest. Starting with the negative...Just like many of the reviews I have read said, the atmosphere isn't the best. (It's clean!) It's got bad acoustics and they weren't playing any music so you can hear everything. Now the good part. The service was nice. The young woman waiting our table was super patient. The food...this isn't a mediocre Tex-Mex place which I have always assumed....

Went here for the first time with my wife. We were just wanting to try a different restaurant. Service and atmosphere was excellent, very clean. The food was excellent and came out very fast, fresh and hot. I agree with another reviewer here with the queso being more like bechamel but still good. Also the salsa was very delicious with just the right amount of spice. It's a little pricey for me but overall worth it.
