The service and the vibes were wonderful. We were treated so kindly even though it was super late by the time we came in, the food was amazing.

Some of the worst service we've ever had sadly. We really tried to be patient and accommodating. But all of our dishes were incorrect. Overcooked and missing ingredients. Forgotten dishes. And it took us over 25 minutes to get the check after asking 3 times. We were only acknowledged urgently when our entire party decided to stand up and stare around as we approached 30 minutes waiting to pay and leave. The food was not good and the service was so so bad. I am reluctant to leave bad reviews since I'm a server myself. But the building was empty. We were one of maybe 4 tables and had more than 5 different employees approach us and all of them got our orders wrong or forgot us. Overall it was very disappointing and we were still excessively kind and patient

Service was fine. Food was mediocre. A lot of the seating is in disrepair. The variety of drinks and salsas is great, though.

Bland Flavorless waited over 30 mins to get the worst tasting tacos ever I am Mexican and they should be ashamed not even doing hand made tortillas I get having premade ones and the food actually be delicious but this was by far the saddest tasting food I have ever experienced there is absolutely no one to help you I was told after waiting 30 mins that my food was ready but they kept stalling so I wouldn’t cancel it because they don’t wanna lose the profit enjoy those $20 something dollars you got from me hope they were worth losing a customer over. Trust me you guys there are way better alternatives please go somewhere else this place is too stuck in their ways the menus are so outdated feels like you walk 10-15 years into the past

I've gone to this restaurant quite a few times I actually enjoyed their food the service is okay sometimes I got friendly people but overall a true authentic Mexican food that I am sure you would love him before off of I even believe they have karaoke nights because one night when I was ordering it to go order I saw people singing karaoke to the left full of authentic Mexican decor and decorations and it does give you the authentic Mexican vibe when you walk through the doors. I highly recommend this restaurant if you're in the area.

Doesn't look like too much when you drive past this place, but if you give it a chance, you won't be disappointed. It has a big parking lot with plenty of parking spots to choose from. The place inside is quite big with an open floor plan and plenty of seating to choose from with a spacious bar. They offer a variety of Mexican dishes, cevhiche, menudo etc. I came and decided to get their menudo and 2 steak tacos. Thr food came out and was extremely hot! It's not a bad thing as that tells me that the food was freshly made and wasn't just sitting there. There is nothing worse than a cold tortilla for tacos. These tacos were hot and tasted delicious! The steak was perfectly marinated and exactly what I wanted. The menudo was extremely hot and burned my tongue a bit, but I definitely did not mind as it tasted amazing! They also bring out fresh tortillas for you to eat with it. You also get free chips and salsa. My server was extremely polite and gave great recommendations. I definitely recommend this location if you are craving some mexican. You won't be disappointed.

I got the carnitas. Because you would think them having the word in their name. That it has to be really good. Nope. Nasty. Smells old. Has skin and a whole bunch of fat and I'm not sure what the other part of the pig is. What waste of $35
