The service was great! Our waitress was very attentive even though it was busy. The food came out hot and was exactly what I wanted!

The music outside was very loud. This made conversation a bit of a challenge.

At least one member of the staff didn't speak English well and interacting to get food delivered correctly was challenging. Our Spanish is bad but was better than his English. Food was really good.

Food is great but they don’t play about getting you out promptly at 10 pm sharp. I do notice it is a better experience during the day. I’ll be back.

The only time using my credit card in months was here. About 3 hours afterwards, there were attempted charges in Reynoldsburg. It seems either their registers are bugged or an employee stole the information. I don't know but this restaurant has to be connected.

We were quite surprised to see some empty tables during a sunday afternoon, but that did not put us off. The food was just as expected, amazing! Everything was fresh, well made and flavorful.
I had ordered a cup of Pozole and to me that cup was a bowl size. Nothing wrong with it, portion was larger than I had expected but delicious nonetheless.
If you have never been, please do visit!

Atmosphere and service were great! Food and margaritas were honestly subpar, and kind of disappointing.

This place has been redone and is very nice inside now. They also have stepped up their game on the food.

The chips and salsa were exceptional, the tacos were good, everything else was very bland.

Do they not offer birthday desserts to guests anymore? This is our daughter's favorite restaurant so we took her for her 15th birthday. We made the waitress aware. She even made over the fact that our daughter was 15 (culturally significant). Our food came out reasonably fast but was room temperature at best. We finish and the waitress quickly brought us the check without offering desserts and when asked about the birthday dessert for the birthday girl, she just smiled and nodded and walked away to ring us out. We decided to just leave and get some somewhere else but I understand why the ratings for this location are what they are. The feeling we encountered was very much hurry up and eat and get out but with a smile, of course.
The remodeling was beautifully done but its worthless if the food and service is lackluster.

Have been to many locations for 20+ yrs. Unfortunately, what used to be good food at fair prices has declined into something much less. And the 3% credit card charge is insulting, to raise prices and add a credit card surcharge is reason to go elsewhere. Was there on Cinco de Mayo. A pitcher of margaritas cost $63(more than a bottle of good tequila) and basically tasted like mix. Food included 5 beef soft tacos, carne asada, and queso dip totaled $175 with tax/tip for 3 people. Food portions are always inconsistent and for what is being charge not worth going to. Adios!

I think they should change their hours from 10 pm to 9:15pm as they told kitchen is closed and didn’t let us in at 9:16pm. We have been going to this location for more than 5 years but will try other locations instead of wasting time to visit this location
