Ordered ultimate fajita and everything was dry. The silverware was dirty, and the men's restroom was disgusting. We will not be returning.

Food was horrible... felt like I had purchased microwavable enchiladas at the grocery for 10 times the price. Highly recommend you save your money to avoid the extreme disappointment.

Brisket tacos were bursting with salt flavor, fajitas were flat (meaning bland), and a very poor attempt Spanish rice. I've had better tasting Mexican food at a Chinese restaurant. I had the sample platter and my wife chose a different dish and we were both disappointed. The best tasting thing was the water with lemon wedge. I love Mexican food but I will never go back there and will discourage as many people as possible from eating there. Exton Pa. Location.

My fiance and I got there right at 11 when they opened which we loved because there was no one else there. Our server was really nice and personable. She automatically brought us chips and salsa which we loved. Some people might think their salsa is a bit spicy. We ordered the queso (delicious but over priced in my opinion) my fiance got the Gran Papi and I got the Birria quesa tacos. Everything was delicious we had a great lunch. The only thing we noticed is that they don't seem to do a good job cleaning the crevis in the booth because it was filled with crumbs.

Ordered over $50 worth of food and the order came missing part of the order, when I called them about they told me there was nothing they could do about unless I wanted to come in person and pick up the missing items. So I drove across town to pick up the items and they gave a $10 coupon that doesn't even work.

Came here for lunch on a Friday. It was a slow day with very few people. The host was friendly and was quick. The server came around and it seemed like she didn't want to be there. She seemed to rush us the entire time we were there. She also asked if we wanted our app with the meal or before. We asked before and got it soon after. A couple of minutes after our app came out she brought us our meals. I was hoping that asking for the app before the meal would give us time to finish it before the rest of the meal came out. Didn't mind it much that the food came out together it just wasn't exactly what I wanted. After the meal we asked for boxes and she handed us two small boxes. While we were putting our food into the containers she was trying to take our plates. She grabbed plates with food on it and gave us an attitude when we asked to keep the plate to put the food into our to-go containers. Came back every few minutes to grab any dish that looked empty. Wouldn't come back to this place again. Food is ok but honestly looking for service when I go to a restaurant.

Food was ok but when I received my credit card bill they upped me $5 more than I should have been charged. They eventually sent me a gift card as compensation. Check your receipts and compare to your credit card bill!!!!

Food was terrible. It wasn’t edible. And my husband got sick. The food is all dried out. The tortillas were sitting underneath a bowl of toppings. The tortillas were raw. Way too salty. Beans and rice shouldn’t be crunchy. The meat was all dried out and salty. Everything was room temp. The place was dirty. Nothing tasted like it should. The waitress had an attitude when I told them about my complaints. I wouldn’t even feed it to my dog.

Quiet atmosphere. Good to spend with family. They welcomed us with tortillas and a slightly spicy sauce.
