Ate here tonight with a gifted groupon. Looks disheveled inside, crooked shelves, rug rolled up like someone is going to trip on it, just messy. I ordered the chicken quesadilla and it was just so so, not very flavorful. My boyfriend had steak and chicken fajitas and really enjoyed it but look at the plate of meat, onions chicken and peppers and all the toppings but only allowed 3 small soft shells. What I wasn't happy about is our waiter brought out a 1/2 full thing of salsa, like they were low on it or something and some weird tasting white dip (maybe tasted expired) never came to ask how our dinner was. Waited forever for him to come by to ask for the check, handed him the groupon right away but they did not want to accept it as it was printed out with the groupon # and a bar scan. He said, no sorry we need to see it on your phone, I explained this was a gift, on the top of the groupon it even said Ho Ho Ho then in subject it said Merry Christmas, Love, Michelle They along with what maybe was a manager still said they need to see it on my phone, I explained again but now I am getting louder and frustrated with them, really? How can I show it to them from my phone when I did not purchase it. They finally did accept the groupon but what a struggle it was. I also used the restroom and it was a huge mess and the floor was very wet. Will 100% NOT be back, ick.

Fast and delicious food. Huge menu for everyone in the family. The staff are always friendly. We frequently dine at this location and leave full and happy each time.Vegetarian options: The vegetarian fajitas are fantastic!They also are super accommodating to my dairy intolerance which is hard at a Mexican restaurant.Kid-friendliness: Our kids love it there - the music, kids menu and quarter machines at the entrance for candy after dinner. And occasionally the claw machine.

Have enjoyed this restaurant since it opened. However, the last 3 visits have been disappointing and frustrating. You literally have to track someone down if you need a refill on a drink or to get your bill. Then you have to track someone down to pay your bill. Not sure if they are understaffed or what is going on. Tried ordering take out one day so I didn't have to fight to pay and leave, but they seemed so confused by a take out order. It will definitely be awhile before I return. I'll go somewhere that wants my business.

Everything we had there was whack keep in mind I spent $ 140 including tip, everything we ordered tasted water down from the margaritas to the salsa to the sauce that goes on her taco, everything tasted bland, and just water down and their way Understaff. it took them 30 minutes to even come get our order for our drinks. Been here a couple times this will be the last. The first time was great. The second time mediocre the third time was the worst.
Everything was great quick service quick seating quick drinks lots of portions and lots of good food seems smaller from outside but lots of seating inside both tables and bar area great staff very friendly and nice seems like they really know there customers that come in was busy even at 1030pm on a Saturday night but still quick to get ur orders and great deal for drink large margaritas for price of medium just make sure you have a sobber driver after finish that fish bowl of margarita I'm lucky my wife doesn't drink cause I drove and no way could I after I finished drink they make it extraaaa strong trust me I'm no light weight either but worth every drop and slow trip home thanks for great date night that we never getParking: Make sure to lock ur doors tough strip mall but worth going to for some of the shops especially the restaurant
Mojarres = delicious. Chips (warm) and fresh salsa, mmm. Never disappointed. Also, Tilapia filet, amazing.Parking: Go around the back of the front is full

As far as Mexican eats go, this is pretty standard. Decent food, not fantastic. I don't see myself going back anytime soon as there are many other Mexican restaurants in the same price range that I would prefer.
Decent Mexican spot is pretty decent right off of 252 and 85th street. Plenty of parking and a patio for the summer. I haven't had the pleasure yet but I'm sure I will this Summer. Ambiance 4/5 Décor is nice, festive, and bar area. Kitchen seems pretty small however I'm not back there working so (shrugs shoulders). Service 4/5 The staff always friendly and seats us quickly and checks in regularly. They typically have music playing and its always pretty packed. Food/ Drinks 4/5 I haven't ordered alcohol here however the bar stay packed so I assume its good..lol. They have decent portions and the menu offers way to many options for my taste. The Mojarra is so good, this is my go to anytime I visit this spot. There bowl is also pretty good, Fried Ice Cream is my go to! Every time. Mojarra Frita $15.95 | Shrimp Tacos $15.95 Fried Ice Cream. Expect to pay $40-60 bucks if its two of us. Overall 4/5 Will return and eventually try the happy hour. Stay tuned!

Stopped in after work for nachos with Mexican ranch, Queso, and Sala. Washed it all down with one of the biggest margaritas ever. Delicious.

My favorite local restaurant. I'm embarrassed to admit how often I eat here but it's at least once a week minimum. The staff is lovely, the drinks are delicious and I love the vegetarian tacos.

Right off of 252, this Mexican restaurant is way bigger inside than you would think! It has a great bar right in the center and an abundance of tvs if you wanted to catch a game while eating some complimentary chips and salsa. We came for dinner so the drinks were definitely flowing for some people so I can only assume the margaritas are fire! I ordered the chimichanga, my husband got the tortilla soup, and my nephew ordered tacos. Everything came out piping hot and so delicious! The plates were filled to the brim and full of flavor! So glad we found this gem in our neighborhood!
