I got steak and chicken fajitas for lunch. I totally enjoyed both the steak and chicken. So juicy and flavorful. The vegetables were delicious and cooked to perfection as well. The place was very clean and bright. And the service from Manuel was friendly and professional. I was very impressed and I highly recommend this place!

Very disappointed in Esperanza recently. I went in to get a taco bowl today to find it is now half the size it usually was for the same price. I have always been satisfied with Esperanza''s food and they have given generous portions, so I hope going forward that doesn't continue to change because their food is tasty. I removed a star for for the portion size reduction.

I typically wait til I’m finished eating to write a review. This time I couldn’t help myself. The staff are very friendly and suggested the options which suited me. There is plenty of seating throughout the establishment and you can dine in or take out. The quarter chicken I got with cabbage and rice and beans was great! Will certainly return. Thankful that I didn’t do my lunch usual and came here.
