While some guests have reported restroom issues, the overall experience is fantastic, earning a 5-star rating. The friendly staff and tasty dishes make it a perfect stop for travelers or anyone looking for an enjoyable dining experience.
The restaurant's tacos, enchiladas, cheese sauce, chili con carne, salad, sides, and chips and salsa are reminiscent of the classic Tex-Mex flavors that the owner grew up with. The pickled relish and tortillas are still a staple, and the wait staff is consistently pleasant and efficient, ensuring a pleasant visit every time.
Some guests have noted that the restaurant was not busy during their visit, making for a nice and quiet atmosphere.
