We've gone to this location for years and always great food ans good selection. Service sometimes though is a bit lacking, you have a 50/50 chance of good or not so good. But the food is amazing!

The service was good. But the food was lacking. However, as someone who appreciates high spice levels, they did a good job with the salsa. Otherwise, the food was meh in flavor. We ordered the spicy margaritas and there was just something off about them and I’m a margarita lover! The Baja fish tacos were pretty decent, but again, lacked flavor. My date ordered the Monterrey burrito and said the steak was seasoned well yet still boring. Overall, an ok meal but if this was the only Mexican spot in town, I don’t think I’d be visiting.

I just found this place. Food was delicious both times for all of us. Fresh, fast food with lovely service. We will always come here for Mexican food. Prices are very reasonable too.

Everything you'd expect in a Mexican restaurant, minus the flavor. If you like bland food you'll probably enjoy it!

The service was above average! I will say the food was pretty good. The food took no time to come out to the table. The cheese dip was probably one of the best I ever had!

1st time here today and it was really good. Steal cooked perfect. Shrimp and veggies very tasty. The salsa is always my favorite. It could use a tad bit more of flavor but no complaints. I shall return.
