I’m use to Hispanic restaurants that smile and greet you. This place didn’t give that to our family who came to visit. The lady when we came in with the curls and blonde hair walked so fast to the table she didn’t even wait to see if we were behind her. She didn’t say hey, welcome in. She just asked how many and walked straight all the way to the very back. Our waitress was a lady with a short hair cut and she didn’t smile, she didn’t ask how we were, first thing she said was what can I get you to drink, after that all she asked was what do you want to eat, and do you need any boxes. Very dry! My ordered ended up being wrong, which was no issue I was okay BUT the biggest issue is my mom, my two boys and myself have had diarrhea since we left. I mean terrible, to the point I am going to call the health department and notify the place we all are sick. My son went to sleep at 6pm because he threw up and had diarrhea. It’s 11pm now as I type this and I am still so sick. Mind you we came around 1pm on 12/20/25. I will NEVER eat here again. I don’t usually leave reviews but please be careful if you plan to travel out of town for the holidays and end up sick like we are. We leave tomorrow and had to sit in the room the rest of the day. Yes, it’s that bad!! :(
