The fajitas I ordered did not come out very well. They were very tough and had no sizzle to them.

This is one of our go to local spots! It’s not some kind of gourmet type of place or anything like that but it’s one thing for sure—consistent. We always have good food, good drinks, and good service. We’ve been there many times and have never had a complaint and that’s why they get five stars from me ☺️

If you’re black you might as well turn around they will ignore you and treat you as if you want to take food. Never will eat here again.

Everything about this place was amazing. One of the people at our table got a beer and it had a little flashlight in the bottom of it. I ordered water but I asked the waitress to put a flashlight in my water. SHE DID LOL. Now That's service!!!! Gotta try the guacamole. Incredible appetizer!!!

First time visiting the restaurant, coming 2hr away and stop by this Mexican was very bad experience.I ordered shrimp tacos and when I received my order it look like I had onions and tomatoes tacos! Literally had a piece of shrimp cut in three with a lots of onions and tomatoes. So I let the waitress know that I ordered shrimp tacos but there’s no shrimp in the tacos. She responded would you like something else instead. There other dishes in the menu.I simply let her know that I would like shrimp tacos. Her response was will remake the tacos. My response was just add shrimp to the tacos no need to make a need order. Mind y’all I have yet touch the rest of the food on the plate. The waitress takes my plate back and said they will add more shrimp. It took 6min before my plate got to me again. When it comes back my rice didnt looked the same as before, like they had touch it, however they did add shrimp that wasn’t barely cooked and took out the onions and tomatoes out. Honestly didn’t want to eat that plate. Call my waiter back and ask her can I speak to the manager. Manager was very professional, but at this point I would like the order taken out of my receipt to be 1st time and have this kinda of experience it’s good. My waitress is very unprofessional and needs some manners as well!

Been here several times for lunch and the food is excellent and filling. Guacamole is by far some of the best I have had and the serving size is huge! Great service as well.

Hopefully this will reach the staff but I jsut wanted to say they were absolutely amazing. I ran out of homemade salsa and didn’t want to make any for dinner and decided to buy some from here. Unknowingly I was STARVING and still had to drive 15 minutes home to cook. When he gave me the bag I was like hmm there some extra items in here and it was a bag of chips with salsa. I literally wanted to hug him and I thanked him so much. I’m not sure if they always give out salsa with chips on to go orders but as soon as I got in my car I devoured it and it was delicious!! I plan on coming back to try their food because it looked good as well. Thank you for saving my mood without knowing.
