Im suprised by all the positive reviews. I based my decision to eat here from them. Unfortunately, I was very disappointed. I don't typically give bad reviews but I feel like I really have to say something here.

My wife and I are in the area on vacation and we were looking for a place for dinner after touring some sites.

I'll just get to it...

The service was extremely slow. After placing our drink order, it took around 15 mintues to get the two waters we requested. You could tell the chips were store bought and I'm pretty sure the salsa is as well.

My wife ordered cheese enchiladas. They tasted like store bought ingredients as well. Canned sauce, store bought tortillas and the charro beans tasted more like pinto beans slowed cooked with a ham bone. Definitely not Mexican.

I had the Pollo Loco. It was the special of the day so I figured, why not?!? First of all it was brought out barely warm at all. I had to send it back to be reheated. The flour tortillas were obviously bought at a near by grocery store. The dish over all was pretty bland. I did all I could to eat half.

Then to top things off, there was a .91 credit card transaction charge on my check when there was no conversation about how I would be paying. I did end up using a credit card but ive never seen that at any other restaurant I've ever dined at.

Yes, we're from Texas so we're spoiled when it come to food but this was a pretty bad experience and waste of money.

Tacos are always 10/10, drinks are good, and service is always solid. I've been three times and I'll be back a lot more!

Family of 6 stopped by here after seeing Rock City late afternoon on Saturday. Very clean and neat looking but our server clearly did not want to be there. Waited at the door for about 5 minutes while only one other table was there. They have the oversized red cups which I’m generally a fan of but their straws are too short for them and she brought these same cups for our 2 eight year olds, filled to the brim, had to ask for refills on adult drinks. Salsa was really good but other food was just okay and a bit overpriced. For example, kids bean burrito was 8.99, charged extra 2.55 for a very small amount of cheese dip on top of it and charged another 3 for his drink so almost $15 for one child’s plate. Server brought a ticket but didn’t give it to us- just told us the total and took the card. Then she came back and said that it was actually more because of the drinks. When she came back with credit card slip she tried to only show the total on the ticket but I took it and saw that she’d added gratuity. We tip and I don’t mind it being added but it really felt like she intentionally jacked up our prices, gave crappy service and tried to con her way into a double tip. Overall regret coming here. Go somewhere else if you have kids or aren’t there during a time when they have specials going on.

This place was delicious! Came here with a big family party and everyone was very happy with the food they ordered. Tamales, chorizo chicken tacos, chimichanga and a recommendation from the waitress (Alma). I don't remember the name of the dish but it was so good! I am from the west coast and used to good Mexican food, but I have been living in South Carolina and my in-laws live in Chattanooga, TN. I don't know why it is so hard to find good Mexican food in the south but I have not been able to find it until this place. The only criticism is the service was a little slow but we had a big party and it was later in the afternoon. My baby did spill a large glass of ice water everywhere and they came right away and cleaned it up. Definitely will be back to this place though!

The server was great and the best part of the visit was the chips and salsa. The veggie burrito didn’t come with rice or beans… and was drowned in a cheese sauce (was it cheese?) The kids love Mexican food but barely ate a bite of their dishes. We were so excited to try this place. It is standard fast food Tex mex style - not what I would call authentic Mexican or Latin food.
