I would have given five stars but I was overcharged by a little bit because my child have got a good smell and a soft drink with the kids. Mouth is only $2 Is what it says on the menu. Other than that the food was great. The ice mister was great. The service was so so

Food is overpriced. $150 for 5 taco plates is a bit much. He uses his hand to grab the tortillas. No gloves. Small containers of salsa comes with the big bag of tortillas. They can barely understand you while placing your order. My kids order from them all of the time, but for the price I paid, I can make my own tacos and still have money left over.

After my experience today, I’m not sure I’ll go back. I was the ONLY customer at a table, and the waiter ignored that I was there to have a conversation with someone at the bar. He had to be told twice by the chip girl to come wait on me. I asked for water and it took another 5 minutes to get it. When I finally got my food, my rice was cold, and the tacos were so small it was ridiculous. For the quality of food (and grade) to go down, I think it might be time to go somewhere else.

I've never had bad Mexican food till now. Would not recommend going here. We've come twice and won't return mainly due to the food being poor quality. I ordered the shrimp and scallops, both of which tasted slimey and fishy. Both mine and my husband's food were lukewarm, on the colder side. I couldn't even finish my meal. They also forgot my daughters kids' quesdilla, which was rushed out with cheese not even melted on the inside. The only perks, which is why I went with two stars, was my margarita, and the service was decent.

I ordered carne asada and was expecting skirt steak and I got a hard thin slice of carne. I told the waiter but he didn't do anything. I'm never coming back to this restaurant, it was a waste of money.

This place was absolutely amazing when it first opened but it has went downhill so badly. I'm not sure what changed but the food isn't like it was when they first opened. I have been given old pico de gallo on several occasions now. The pollo con queso seems to have way less cheese sauce, the kids pollo con queso has had none the past two orders we've had from them. The chorizo cheese dip is extremely oily. The quality of the food has went down and it saddens me because I use to argue that this was the best Mexican restaurant in Union County. Now I cannot say that.
