It is nice but very expensive. After their suggested tip, the bill came to $68 for three starter tacos, 2 medium rail margaritas and a beer. It was a casual stop at the bar for a quick drink on the way homeOur server was good as was the food but it seriously lacked value.

This was our third time here for lunch. I always get the chicken chili and it's enough for me! A five dollar lunch isnt bad at all. This is the second time we came for Rachels next door and ended up at Maise instead. The place is practically a ghost town. Sure, there is room for improvement but I would go back again. Today my husband's chimichanga was fried to crisp perfection and we liked the red sauce on the enchilada.

Thought it was going to be a decent place. First visit went well Did dine in twice and take out twice. the next 3 visits were horrible all the way around, poor service, food was incorrect all 3 times.Not going to try again!

I was pretty disappointed. It wasn't bad by any means, but it certainly wasn't GOOD. I got the grilled corn, the queso blanco, and the corn and crab bisque. The grilled corn and queso were alright but the queso was lacking in flavor and both could have used any amount of salt.My real problem was with the "bisque." It had plenty of corn and crab in it, but it was more of a crab and corn dip than a bisque. A bisque should be a liquid right? The crab as a sort of garnish on top was great, but the "bisque" was thick, I could have eaten it with a fork just as easily, the spoon was unnecessary.It was fine. Not bad, certainly not great. Just fine.It's a shame I wasn't there for dinner, it looked like they had good margs.

We did not eat. So 3 stars has nothing to do with food. Stopped in around 9 on a Sat night. Pretty empty. Bar tender was nice and drinks were good, but someone had clearly thrown up in the men's room and it was not cleaned up. When I brought it to their attention they did nothing at all about it. It was pretty weird. This is just an honest review of the facts.

First time here. The server, when we asked questions about different items and what they came with had no idea and kept saying to 'read the menu' and wasnt even sure what page to look at. The little burnette hostess was less than helpful when we sat down. She didn't say a word to us. Then, she was upfront at the front host stand on her phone, and lifting her shirt and rubbing her belly and posing like she was pregnant (point of that is the immaturity of lifting shirt while working). Our drinks, just two house margaritas, didn't come out till after our dinner came. And our appetizer came at the same time as our dinner as well. Dirty dishes were left in our table even though the server stopped by to check on us, she didn't anything with her.THE FOOD IS AMAZING! GOOD JOB KITCHEN! I would work on training the staff on the floor to be professional, and personable. If you're coming here, get take out. Enjoy the food and skip the poor service.

The chips and salsa was amazing and their $5 margaritas were a very good value. This was not our favorite local Mexican place but the overall experience was a good one.

The best street corn and steak tacos in Central Pennsylvania. Service was immaculate and prices are great! I will DEFINITELY be back! Thank you Maize, you were perfect!

A great place! We have done take-out and dine-in. Our take-out experiences are usually great. Dine-in has not been as great. So I would recommend take-out if trying to decide between the two.

This isnt nothing authentic at all. Ordered “enchiladas” and they put a tomato paste on top… Bruhhhh that’s nowhere close to Mexican! Atleast hire a real Mexican to make y’all some decent salsa not the store bought one. Sorry but my experience was horrible. Waitress was even hungover ?

I am extremely disappointed. I was craving some Mexican street corn and was in the area that I’m not familiar with. I decided to use Google as a source to find a place where I can get it. The corn was not even close to what Mexican Street corn is suppose to look or taste like. It was a poor representation and should not be sold at the establishment if effort will not be put into what is being sold. Never Again!

We arrived exactly at opening time. The tables were flecked with food from the night before. The chips and salsa were good, and our host and server were quick and friendly (we were the only ones there at first). However, the main dishes came out luke warm and needed to be sent back for reheating. The seafood and steak burrito had a gelatinous American cheese melted on it. The beans and rice both tasted reheated. They were both dry, and the beans had a white crust on top from being dried out. My husband's crab item literally just had crab in it with no sauce inside. Another item had what seemed like just tomato paste on top. It was a pretty gross experience. At the end, we were given a box but no check, and we waited for a while before going up to the host for our check. Our server was apologetic and kind. The people kept this from being a one star. The food was overpriced and we will definitely not be returning.
