Service was good, drinks were good.If you blindfolded me, had me try two crunchy tacos and asked me to guess which one was taco bell I wouldn't be able to tell the difference.Salsa was from a can. Tasted like spaghetti.

Not the great Mexican I remember from years ago. Salsa was from a jar. My chimichanga had a shiny smooth orange velveeta-like cheese sauce poured over it. And the hostess did not even greet us. She just looked at us when we came in and I thought she was another customer. The elderberry mojito was amazing however, giving them an extra star from me.

Did dine in here twice. It’s been a hit or miss on the drinks. Food is decent. It is good for casual. Check the website or call them seems like the hours have been changing.

My adult son had a build your own burrito bowl and was really unimpressed. The crab in the fajitas is pulped can food. My mom's was overcooked and almost uncuttable... With shrimp... Overcooked too. Food was poor, drinks, service parking... All good. Do hire a chef.

This should be your taco Tuesday destination. They have free chips and salsa and the house margaritas are well poured and well priced. Don't overlook this establishment or you will be sorry. FYI they have trivia nights, check out there FB page.

Everything about this was average - the chips and salsa, my burrito, my partner's chicken mole enchiladas. I did a 'build your own" burrito and it was fine, but nothing great - I didn't like the tortilla used at all (very dry), so wound up just scraping out the insides and eating that.

Mexican pizza is my fave.

Used to be really, really good but lately the food quality isn't what it used to be. Could be short staffed or having kitchen issues but my favorite Mexican place has been disappointing the last few vißits.

Staff was very friendly however the food was very bland. The verde sauce is very sweet.

The last three times I've visited this TF I've been totally underwhelmed with the quality of the food. However, tonight we decided to give it one more go, because it's five minutes from our house and we love Mexican. Well, hallelujah, we got an excellent meal here! I had the Combination, which is two tacos, a cheese enchilada and a guacamole salad. They used fresh cheese! The taco shells were crisp and well filled. The wife had the taco salad and a side taco, much to her vegetarian satisfaction. We sat in the enclosed porch and watched the rush hour traffic zoom by. The guacamole was bland, and the salsa was too, but the enchilada and tacos were fab. We will actually come back soon instead of waiting five more years and see if we get lucky again. We had an excellent and charming server, despite being short staffed. I can only hope TF has perhaps turned a corner, in terms of both food quality and service. Yay!

Haven't been here in a while. Was shocked to see such a low rating. Our server was very friendly and service was fast. I got the Burrito Bowl which was very tasty. My wife had the chimichanga which could have been a little more crispier but was still good. For dessert we had the fried blueberry ice cream.

Haven't been there in awhile and was great to make it back. Quite a large crowd enjoying a wide variety of good Mexican food. Our server Lauren was very attentive. She popped by at the right time to see the needed anything. Plenty of parking, good drinks on the deck made for a nice Maine summer dining experience.
