I have no idea how this place has such good reviews on google. I feel like they’re completely false and we were pranked into eating here. I will say our server was the only good part of our experience, she was fantastic (and should get a job at a better restaurant where she would be tipped more). The atmosphere is lacking and lighting is maybe low on purpose…the food is absolutely terrible. Someone’s Mexican grandmother would be ashamed to call this Mexican food. We were in the area, in a hurry, and stopped here because most Americanized Mexican restaurants are ok. Nope, don’t stop here…cheese queso wasn’t good, beans were greige, rice tasted like they used city water to make it, enchilada sauce was awful, beef in the burrito tasted just like Taco Bell. Then I noticed there was no ethnic diversity eating here and realized that’s maybe who they’re catering to. The 1 star is for the salsa bar (the only things with flavor) and our server, or else it deserved zero stars.

Went there for Taco Tuesday and was very happy with the food and service. Tacos were $3 each and you can get chicken or beef. Would definitely recommend to others! ?

I eat here 2-3 times a week. The mixed grill is slapping. High recommend you visit.

Very good! My carne asada burrito was kinda cold, but still good. Had and amazing server that was a young lady. She made sure to check on us and give us water refills without being prompt to. Will give it 5 stars once I visit again and the food is hot.

Came here for the first time ever, on a Monday night! No wait, got seated immediately! Our server came right away with menus and brought water! The food was fantastic! Definitely would recommend and will be returning for sure!

Our party was in your restaurant on Saturday, March 2. We came in and were greeted by your host telling us that we had 14 minutes and he turned a clock around and showed the time at 9:01. I said I thought you closed at 10. He said we’re closing early tonight because we are not busy. He sat us down with menus and a waiter took our drink order, 2 margaritas. If there was alcohol in them, I’d be surprised. He took our order and brought it immediately, then came and slammed the bill down on the table and barely gave us time to put our card on the tray. The host came by again and pointed at us and said we had 15 minutes to finish. If they were closing early and didn’t want to help us, perhaps they should have just told us they weren’t seating anymore people. With service and attitudes like that it’s no wonder they weren’t busy and we’re closing early. I’m sure Hector wouldn’t be happy about this. We’ve been going there for years. Doubt if we’ll be back.

Discovered, perhaps too late, that Baja-Style means lack of flavor. I was, along with my wife, quite disappointed with the flavors, from the complimentary salsa to our entrees. They looked the part, but just tasted bland.We politely ate them and got outside and said to one another, " what did you think?"Flavorless was our consensus.I have been in the business for a long time and hate to disparage anyone's business or interpretation of cuisine. Nonetheless, there are better options available.

We really like going there for Taco Tuesday, better prices but extra cheese costs more than a Taco. Mango margaritas are phenomenal!

We have eaten at Hector’s numerous times. Tonight we went for dinner, I was told the only available table to accommodate high chair was in the bar. We have sat in the bar before and it’s totally fine with us. The manager then said no you can’t sit in the bar you have to sit here, and took us to a booth. I reminded him we needed a high chair, he then said I can’t do that. I do t have any place I can put a high chair, you will have to wait. WHAT?? Since when are there rules that high chairs can only be at certain tables? We typically go for lunch and have never had this problem. We left as I had an 18month old and a 3 year old who wanted to eat, and I was given no idea how long the wait would be. We won’t be back anytime soon.
