Update-I have always loved their fajitas, until today. Historically, the fajitas came out sizzling with little to no oil. Today they were doing the backstroke in oil. Nasty and unhealthy. I always got chicken fajitas as they were a healthy choice. Not so anymore, too much oil. Downgrading to 1 star because the fajitas are no longer a healthy choice due to the oil.
Food was good, not outstanding. Carne asada burrito was very tasty and filling. Good beans. The portion could be bigger. Rice was ok. It seems like they might be using parboiled rice. Not a fan of that. Guac has a nice taste. And good crispy chips. Oddly, some Mexican spots fail on the chips. Service was quick and friendly. Solid B+
Traditionally a good place to eat. However, lately there have been so many price increases it's prohibitive. What wants to pay $20 for a plate of fajitas or $4.50 for a cheese enchilada. A piece of cheese and a tortilla. Cost? Maybe 75 cents. So long, El Azteca!
