Fantastic food with delicious meats and sauces. Affordable menu. Margaritas yummy, albeit a bit expensive. Our server was great!

I'll start with some positives:
We were seated right away.
The place was clean.
The location is nice, isn't congested, and has esthetic appeal.
Wonderful selection of tequila.
Now onto the food.. incredibly disappointing experience.
The flavor was not quite there. And worse yet, the meals really weren't even cooked correctly.
I got the molcajete. Insanely bad. Cheap, small shrimp and way too much cheese. Frankly, I've never seen cheese melted into the sauce like that.. and now I know why. This is better suited to garbagy American fast food.
Another issue - they don't sear, sauté, or grill any of the meat. I asked about this thinking the kitchen had just forgotten. When I asked, I just received a puzzled look. So I went to look at their Google page to show the waitress. Then i realized why she was confused. They just don't do this. Why? No clue. It doesn't take that long and adds so much flavor to the dish.
The entire table agreed that the only thing that was worth getting was one of the appetizers. I can't remember what it was called, but it was essentially their grazing board. That was amazing. But I noted that likely they didn't make any of this and simply assembled it - granted, presentation was very nice.
O boy, I forgot to mention one of the worst parts. We start eating the rice and all start looking at each other. It's awfully familiar, but also clearly devoid of any flavor that could be described as "Mexican." Not kidding, we're pretty sure it was Uncle Ben's rice. Not a joke.
This place is a joke. And then you look at the clientele and realize it isn't catering to many Mexicans. The whole place is filled with the fairer-skinned people. And this makes sense.
No offense to non-Latinos who haven't grown up on good, home cooked Mexican food. But.. this food is for you guys.
The food at the taco truck by PJ's is considerably better. And at a fifth of the price.

Always surprising this location is slow. Slow service and not many people in there on a Friday night

Beautiful location with a nice outside dining patio. Note: if you arrive late afternoon. Much of the outdoor patio could be in the sun. It also has a huge garage door allowing you to sit inside and feel the outside courtyard. Service was excellent. The food for me was good but not great. Given the prices, I was a little underwhelmed. They need to add cushions to their chairs as you will be sitting on solid wood. I was uncomfortable after about an hour in the chair.

The food, service and atmosphere was excellent! We love Mexican food and this was the best have had in ages. The Albondigas soup, chicken tacos, enchiladas were all fantastic. The Home made hot sauce made it even better. Great restaurant and service was so nice too! Was our second time and will be back!

This place is AMAZING! From the moment you walk in! My husband and I were IMMEDIATELY greeted by Geraldo who ended up being our waiter. He was kind patient friendly and VERY knowledgeable. He gave recommendations on drinks and he was ON POINT!The decor is Lovely. (Even the bathroom lol) The food was a 10- I had absolutely NO COMPLAINTS! This will definitely be one of our new spots for date night. THANK YOU!
Dietary restrictions: I do not eat pork so the chef substituted chicken for pork on my al pastor taco! :)
