Ashley was great and I had a great experience

Consistently better than your typical Mexi-clone restaurant.

Take your standard American queso and add some jalapinos. That was the texture/taste of the cheese on all the dishes. Both virgin strawberry dackeries ordered by our party tasted off, and the cherrys on top tasted like pickles. My taquitos were fantastic, but everything else was...subpar.

Had a Mother's Day luncheon here this past Sunday and the food, service and atmosphere could not have been better. Our waiter, Aricel, went above and beyond in making our day a memorable one. Highly recommend this restaurant.

I get that mistakes happen—but this one was frustrating. I ordered chimichangas, and when I got home, I realized they had given me ground beef—something that wasn’t even listed as an option on the menu, so I’m not sure how that happened. I called and they were polite and offered to fix it, saying it would be ready when I got there. But when I arrived back at the restaurant, I still had to wait another 30 minutes for them to remake it.

Unfortunately, the food wasn’t worth the hassle. The chimichangas were just okay, and the cheese sauce was basically a watery soup because of how runny the salad on top was. I appreciate them trying to make it right, but between the mix-up and the long wait, it wasn’t a great experience.

Food is good. Management is not consumer friendly. How can they charge for soda water like it's a soft drink? What's with the $1.50 surcharge because I got an order of refried beans to go (especially since the beans were already $3+)?
Now to search for a similar place without the blemishes.

I called in a small order at around 9:02. I was told 15-20 minutes. I arrived at 9:28 to pick up, not sit down…and the store was closed. A Doordasher was also unable to pick up their order. If you say you close at a certain time, be true to that. Will never come back or recommend.
