our bill was $75....when we got to the car the bank text and said they had charged us $90 and some change. the exact amount for a 20% tip and we left the tip on the table. they refused to accept responsibility and said to contact our bank. imagine the bank knowing what to charge for a tip or that we were eating in a restaurant. I have spent way more than the $15 they stole from us. but I hope my experience costs them way more for stealing from people.
We did take out as we were traveling. We ordered the highest price mixed Fajitas and we got to our destination it was a mixture of ground beef with chicken. I’ve never had ground beef fajitas before. If you do take out check your order before leaving the restaurant.
I love eating here! Their tacos are out of this world with fresh corn tortillas made in house. The lengua, carnitas and asada tacos are bomb. Taco salad is good!
