The food is okay but don’t sit outside if you don’t want to be forgotten it took 1 hour to sit and wait for our food the service was mid the server wasn’t all that nice she really didn’t do much and she automatically added a tip for a party of 5 when it usually added for a party of 6 we didn’t speak up but now i know to speak up next time. Also the menus STINK like wet towels and they don’t care that it’s a very unpleasant smell

I went here for dinner with my sister and niece and it’s was good. The food was okay, I got the Cozumel combo which is 3 ribs and either chicken or steak fajitas. My sister ordered the enchiladas combo; one steak, one chicken and one cheese. Usually it comes with sauce red or green, but it didn’t just cheese on top and the meat was dry. The server was good in the beginning, however when it was time for the check she added a 18% gratuity for a party of two and on the check it said party of 4. I walked over to the server counter and asked her why is the automatic gratuity added on a party of 2 and a 3 year old and if this is normal here. Another male server answered because she didn’t understand my question and called him over, he said I can take it off. I asked him again do they normally add this for parties of 2 and he said no. It’s clear she was pre-judging and assuming she wouldn’t get tipped because we are black and slipped in the gratuity. This was my first time at this restaurant and if the server had not have been sneaky I would have come back, but I cannot tolerate this blatant racism. This is the second Hispanic restaurant to do this to me and my family. I know gratuity is added to large parties, but not for a party of 2 or 3. Her actions ruined my whole experience. They will NEVER get my business again and I say to any other black person going, be mindful of how they treat us. We do NOT need to support this type of establishment!

I use to be a server so I understand servers make no hourly and rely solely on tips. Despite her sneakiness, I still tipped her however, I will never come back. That action forfeits any money earned for service given, but the server in me could not just dine and not tip for the service.

This is 2025 and racism is still prevalent, we as living beings on earth need to do and be better. God created us all. We come in different shapes, sizes and color but our bodies all function the same. If you prick us do we not bleed, if you tickle us do we not laugh, if you poison us do we not die? And if you wrong us shall we not revenge?

We’ve been loyal customers over countless visits and the food and margaritas were always good, even though the service wasn’t. Ever since they changed their menu, the food has gone downhill—portions shrinking and fillers being added while prices were increased. Tonight, half of one of our pulled chicken tacos was POTATOES. Seriously, who wants potatoes as filler in their chicken tacos? We’ve ordered this dish countless times so we pointed it out to the server who tried to say it was the way the dish is supposed to be. Gaslight much? And the Paloma he made was so damn salty it was absolutely undrinkable—think warm salt rinse for a sore throat when you get a cold. That’s how salty it was. Never again. For over $100 for tacos and 3 drinks, there are way too many other options to ever eat at this dump again. So sad, as it used to be good!
