The food is always well prepared and cooked fresh. My favorites are the ceviche, the carne asada, the shrimp tacos,the carne asada fries, and the Fajita Pacifico. Definitely recommend each one of them. They have delicious chips and salsa when you dine in. The staff is always super helpful and polite. I have enjoyed all my visits so far. They always get my order correct even when I get it to go! One of the best Mexican food places for sure!

I got the Burrito Gigantia or what ever.
3/4 rice and then beans and 8 1/2 dollar sized super over cooked pieces of steak.
The kid working the counter sounded like he was talking under water and could care less.
All the reviews had me excited, but no thanks.

We have visited this restaurant many times before, but tonight was extremely disappointing. When we arrived, we were told the only available seating was at the bar-style tables. We agreed, thinking it would still be comfortable. However, before ordering anything, we changed our minds and politely asked if we could be moved to a regular table.

Instead of handling this request kindly, a staff member approached us with a noticeably hostile attitude, asking if we wanted to change. When we said yes, another employee (usually the one who handles payments) made a sarcastic remark out loud, saying “that’s why we ask first,” as if we had done something wrong. When my husband asked what he meant, the employee claimed he was talking to the hostess leading us to the new table.

This entire situation was uncomfortable and unnecessary. We only asked for a simple change of table, but the staff reacted as if we were offending them. My husband even asked if it was really such a problem to switch tables. As paying customers, we come here to enjoy our time, not to feel like a burden. Nothing is free—we always pay for our meals and tip generously. Tonight, the staff’s rude and dismissive attitude completely ruined our experience.
