I don't normally do reviews - but this place was not normal in a good way! It was Taco Tuesday, which is basically all you can eat tocos for 9 bucks. I mean Wow! Talk about hard working servers. If two of them met around a blind corner, someone is going to the hospital!

Good margaritas and great service! Food was ok. Salsa was pretty thin! Their hot sauce had a good heat! The chicken in the burrito was not very seasoned and the steak in my fajitas was overcooked! Might give it another try if in the area. We were just passing through.

Really a fabulous meal. They read my husband's mind and brought him extra hot peppers when we mentioned he likes extra spicy food. We also got extra habanero sauce and all I can say is 10 out of 10.
