I ordered Jalapeño Poppers and they were barely warm. I couldn’t enjoy them because they were cold within a matter of a few minutes. I was a bit disappointed because they cost $9.50 for eight.
I also ordered Nachos and they were good and I would order them again. The waiter returned to my table once to see if I needed a refill on my drink. He never asked if everything was okay or not. Not too friendly.

There are a lot of Mexican restaurants in and around Rochester, and this is another good one to try. We got the quesabirria, chicken fajitas, and the enchiladas verdes and they were all tasty. The quesabirria was a tiny bit salty and the salsa felt a little runny and unseasoned, but overall we enjoyed the food. It wasn’t too busy and our server was very friendly.

The waitress never asked if we were okay until we were done.
He never asked us if we were okay, yes, we needed something else, the tacos, no, I brought lemons. As a waitress, you are supposed to check that the food comes out well from the kitchen. My father-in-law brought him his tortillas when tactically he was already finished, it was a lot of impudence to ask yes, yes. I loved her when she had finished her meal, we stopped her hand to ask for water and she never saw where we were.

This was literally probably my worst Mexican food dining experience. My husband and I came in for lunch at 11:00.

We ordered two t's. The raspberry iced tea was ridiculously sweet and the unsweetened tea was nothing short of slightly brown water and flavorless .

The chips are not homemade, they're definitely store-bought. The salsa was slightly. Nothing more than oregano flavored tomato sauce. The guacamole was clearly pre-made and very runny. It also appeared to be cut with something, possibly a cream or something? The queso was literally the consistency of slightly thick milk. It was flavorless .

We ordered Fajitas Taxanas which was supposed to be beef, chicken and shrimp. It literally had two shrimp and they were both clearly the Frozen variety kind. The chicken and the beef were overcooked and dry and overall the dish was extremely, extremely salty! The corn tortillas fell apart once filling them slightly and they were very thin.

Furniture was dated, paint chipping and some tables chuncks out of the wood corners. Bathroom was dirty and the stall door came apart off the wall.

Hard pass and won't ever be back. Looking for quality Mexican food?.... Don't come here!

More authentic than most others.....good choice of hot sauces found on the tables. I did not approve of extending the guacamole with mayonnaise however. I understand avocados are costly, but DON'T ruin it with mayonnaise! Charge a bit more if you must. Otherwise 4 stars.

Had a larger party - about 12 people. Service was stellar, food was delicious, and everyone enjoyed themselves. And Large margaritas are in fact small aquariums hahahhaa. Very fun. Only let down was they were out of fried ice cream.

This restaurant is the first time I've been there. They treated me very poorly. The women who work here are very trustworthy. They didn't treat me as a customer should be treated and the food is terrible and very little and when it's time to pay you're amazed because you leave your check right there. I don't recommend it! It's disgusting!
