The food was fantastic and reasonable. We received the family fajita meal, which had more than enough food for our family.
A good bartender. He can do well if he makes a gym a regular place to visit.
Ordered the fajita for 2 chicken and steak. There was no chicken, the vegetables were hard (not even the slightest wilted), there was 4 tortillas and in a very small cup had lettuce, salsa, cheese, sour cream and guacamole all mixed together.
I was a bit nervous of eating here because we had a flight to catch, but we were fine. Food was actually pretty good.
I called in to place an order a day early, so it could be ready right at open time. My mom has medical conditions that limit what she can eat and when. She was craving OTB and so I drove over an hour to pick it up for her. The staff was so helpful, and so kind. They made sure my mom’s special order entree was made perfectly as requested and even threw in a piece of cake. There was a little snafu with the computer system so I ended up waiting a little bit the staff truly went above and beyond. I am so grateful. Mom struggles to eat and to swallow easily now and so the fact that she ate the whole thing over a couple of meals times is a relief and a joy. Thank you!
Have gone multiple times. Food is always top notch. Everyone is super friendly. Definitely recommend stopping by !!!
Everything was great and our waitress, Shania, was very attentive and wanted our dining experience to be terrific. The food tasted great and we did not wait a long time. Thank you!

RUDE and UNINFORMED. Flat out horrible customer service. BEWARE
I used to work in the food industry, so I understand the headaches it can cause for those working the field. I placed an online order for a quick dinner for my family, arrived at the restaurant and a hostess or waitress brought me my food and I left. Now you’re saying, “why the 1 star review?”
After I left, the restaurant called me to notify of a missing Apple juice for my toddler’s order. I wish this could’ve been a nice civil phone call. It wasn’t. Before getting their facts right, and without letting me get a word in, the manager who called incorrectly assumed I was a door dasher who just waltzed in to grab someone’s food for delivery. WRONG. I was VERY RUDELY told I couldn’t come in and just grab a bag of food from the shelf and without checking if it was complete. ALL BEFORE I COULD SAY ANYTHING! Then half an hour later they called again about the issue. I’m not distraught about missing an apple juice, I couldn’t care less about that, but my dinner was now interrupted for a simple issue that shouldn’t warrant a follow up. But once again I’m on the phone with a very RUDE, uninformed manager who chose not to be understanding or open minded. After trying to convince him, he still seemingly wouldn’t accept that I was just a regular customer and hung up.
Overall a horrible experience and we won’t be back, I don’t recommend giving them your business either.
Service was great and the ambience was also great. The food was ok! Didn't taste like authentic Mexican food, but wasn't bad either.

Honestly only been here a few times. However, the service has always been great. And of the 3 times we have been there we have watched the manager have to deal with rude, miserable customers. The manager handled a drunk woman trying to skip on her tab, and some delusional old woman who didn't think to ask if her Mexican dish might be spicy 🙄( and of course wanted it comped). Good on the manager for handling each situation well. Just wantsd to let him know his efforts don't go unrecognized!!

Always seems to be something wrong with the order, either for table service or carry out. Undercooked enchiladas, wrong sides, guacamole so old it has turned brown, etc.

Every time I go... My food is different... I get the Birria Queso Tacos every time. Once they were perfect... Grilled tacos hot outside and in, large cup of consomme... Loved them... The next time... Consomme was off and much less... Tacos were not grilled but hot... And yesterday... Tacos came out with flour tortillas baked in the oven? Or stale... The meat and cheese barely melted together and the meat was very fatty... The consomme was a bowl of beef fat... No flavor... Really disappointed...
