Food was great but expensive compared to other Mexican restaurants in the area for the same quality. Nearly all cocktails were $15. We arrived ~6pm on a Saturday and waited 45 min for a burrito and fajitas. Fajitas were great, but came with 2 small tortillas. There was a $3 up charge for cheese and $3 for 2 more small tortillas. Server was unclear about vegan options.
Eaten there a few times. First time was the best, seems to be consistently going downhill in both service and food. Last time we ordered queso fundito for an app and got plain queso. Waitress never bothered to check on us. Wife's dinner was ok just underwhelming, my taquitos were flavorless chicken and nothing else. Again waitress never checked on us sat with empty soda glasses for half the meal. Not in any rush to go back.
My girlfriend & I had such a wonderful experience. The food was phenomenal and the service was even better. Our waiter (I wish I remembered his name) was so attentive. When it came time to pay & get everything boxed up & cleared away, it felt like any staff walking by did something to help out. The teamwork was excellent & something I don’t see very often anymore. We cannot wait to come back. Thank you!
