Literally the worst experience I’ve ever had. I started off with a sweet tea. It was legit old. The cook agreed with me. I ordered the lunch#4. It was completely awful . The beef tasted as old as the tea. This place is nasty. The cooks in the back had their back door open! Which explains the bugs. Literally the worst. I’m hoping I don’t get food poisoning. That’s how disgusting this establishment is!!!

I went to my first Mexican restaurant and I was looking forward to the food. When we entered the restaurant, the hostess seated. Our waitress came for the order, no smile, no greeting, just asked what we wanted to drink.After bringing our drinks, she seem to warm up a little. Her service was good, food was brought on time. The owner came out to greet the other customers but avoided us until it was time to get the receipt. He quickly snatched it off the table. No hello or anything.I don't know if it was because we were black or new people but I know I won't return there. Food wasn't great either.

Ordered the tossed taco salad. Absolutely the best I have had reasonably priced.Staff was attentive until we were finished eating. Asked for a go box and had to wait a long time to get it. Plus had a long wait to pay the tab.I would recommend the place just don't be in a hurry.

Mr. Eric your place is disgusting !! I came here with my significant other and I ordered some tacos and the shrimp wasn’t cooked it wasn’t no lettuce, no tomatoes on it. My lord it was so disgusting , I will never come back here again ! My other partner ordered a chicken quesadilla and he just spit right out. $26 Man it was not worth $5 !!!!

I would never come back here. I will not tell other people to come here. My chicken quesadilla was disgusting. 23$ was not worth the money.

very nice server and clean place, however i just did not enjoy my food. I ordered a carne asada and i was brought out a plate if just a huge piece of steak and onions with rice and beans and another plate for my tortillas. it was as if i had ordered a steak fajita.

Been going here for a while and always satisfied! Fresh warm chips every time, amazing salsa, and quality food for a great price! They have such a nice atmosphere and helpful staff every time! Great for groups or alone!

The worst Mexican restaurant EVER!!!!!! Taco Bell was better than this. The rice was soggy the beef looks like dog food!!!

We were seated at a table that had not been cleaned after the last customer. Not a good thing due to covid. However, food was absolutely delicious.

Literally the worst dining experience I've had/seen. I've been in the service industry for a near decade and could not believe the lack of attention. If you want to go there and sit forever after eating mediocre food, this is the place for you. I would give 0 stars if possible.

The food and customer service was not good. I ordered shrimp and rice. It supposed to come sauteed with peppers and onions with a special sauce. It came with a side of veggies that was not on the menu. The special sauce was some kind of cheese sauce. The dish was not good and very very salty and had i known it would be covered and cheese I would not have ordered it. I could not eat much. I also ordered what I thought would be a fried stuffed pepper but instead was given a mound of ground beef with chopped up peppers covered in cheese. Again I DID NOT WANT BEEF AT ALL! And where is the actual pepper. Like why can't I order from the menu and actuality get what's described on the menu!. The salsa that they give you with the chips tasted like tomato sauce. Very bland and tasteless. How do you mess up salsa!? Also the Flan tasted like it had some kind of malt or liquor flavored drizzle on top. Ive had homemade Flan and it was wayyyy better. I know the people that work here don't actually eat the food from here. There's no way ?. I barely ate anything because it all just tasted bad. I tried to ask the waiter about what I received but he just shrugged his shoulders. He looked every bit of 16 and I felt bad complaining about it to him. The manager walked back n forth a few times and just stared at me. He didn't come over until we got up to leave in which case he quickly snatched the tip off the table. The tip was for the waiter who is probably working a summer job. ?. I wish I had read the reviews before I wasted my money here. I wasn't offered another item from the menu and they did not discount the awful Chile Rellanos aka mound of ground beef covered in cheese. I would not recommend this place. It does not taste authentic, and the food is not good. They don't serve what's on the menu, they serve what they want. I should have gotten up and walked out as soon as I saw the plate.
