I had tried their enchiladas, and I do not know what it was in particular, but an ingredient in said enchiladas, my guess was the sauce caused me to have an allergic reaction in which I threw up. Otherwise they were some pretty good enchiladas.

I would give it about 3.5 stars. I always get a chile relleno wherever I go and there's was clearly given the tender love and care required. As with most I've had in this area, the heat and full flavor falls a little short but I will definitely be back for more. Mexico is just too far a drive to get a chile relleno!

Day of visit: sunday, nov 5, 2023Meals: santa fe chicken saladHoney chicken chipotleArroz con polloFree nacho chips and salsa are delivered to tablesOur Server was a bit matter of fact, and a bit indifferent. Pleasantries were only offered at the end of the meal.The Restaurant could use some updating in its decor. Its a bit dated and has seen better days.The food was very good. We all enjoyed our meals a lot. The food is Well prepared and tasty. The food was served fairly quickly as well.Prices were very reasonable.

I used to love this place. I moved away for 6 years and it's not the same. I've ordered out twice in the past few months and went down for a sit down dinner last night. I've been disappointed every time that I order Horchata, they don't have it but still leave it on their menu. I ordered the stuffed jalapeños which I was hoping. Would be actually "stuffed" but it was just a popper that was overly cooked and crunchy with scalding cheese inside and overcooked slice of a pepper. The tacos aren't authentic style either. They're hard shell or big soft shell. Not your typical small tortilla with just your meat, onion, and cilantro. It's pico de Gallo and cheese. It's good but not what I was expecting. I can say the tamales are always delicious!! But $2.50 for a side of cilantro????? A whole bunch is $1.25 at the store. I didn't see the price but she did give me the price for a side of sour cream with was also $2.50 so I had assumed a little side was either free or way cheaper since she didn't seem concerned to say the price to me I want to like it more but we'll see.

My nephew had his swimming championships at a highschool around the corner. He wanted some Mexican food so we went here. It was about 8pm and they closed at 9. They still managed to take out table of 8 without any issues.

Carne asada done properly, quality stuff if you like actual Mexican food. Not "mighty-bell" fast-n-fake. Sit, relax, savor an authentic Mexican meal paired with a quality brew.I'll be back -

they did put meat in my vegan dish, so they had to remake it but I've been there for YEARS and that was one incident. food is good. Be specific or it'll be the way THEY have it if you like food done a certain way. margaritas are bomb.
