I had a wonderful 21st birthday here! Brought my fazbear lol.
I almost always get the arroz con pollo (rice and chicken (with Mexican cheese sauce on it)) and it was fantastic! The servings are generous. I also ordered strawberry margaritas and was NOT disappointed. The servers were very on top of drinks and making sure everyone had a good time <3 they were friendly and the whole atmosphere was warm and kind.

Food is fairly good. It's pretty typical for the area, salsa is bland, chicken dry, but comes hot and fast.
I you aren't a fan of things drowned in cheese dip don't be fooled by descriptions that say "melted cheese" because they change the verbiage dish to dish. It's not regular melted cheese, it's cheese dip.
Also save the money and don't bother with the bar. We came specifically because they had a version of coronaritas, they were nearly $16 with no discernable tequila. Bought an extra shot to enjoy on the side but had to dump them in. Just a giant bowl of store-bought sweet and sour mix with beer on top.

The service was terrible.
We arrived at the restaurant at 4 o’clock for an early dinner. We were not waited on for 45 minutes. We did not get our food for another 45 minutes. When I question the manager, she gave me several excuses.
We will not be planning to go there again, and will make the same recommendation to anyone who’s interested.

So first of all I ordered the veggie burrito on the menu which is a spinach and mushroom burritos with beans and rice. As you can see I can a bell pepper burrito with no rice and no beans. Perfect start right? Then the el jimador special with steak had literal bbq sauce on the steak like….. and the chicken from the enchilada. Non seasoned or cooked straight from a can. This place has gone to the complete dump. Used to be delicious with great service but the girl gave no care to the issues just said okay and giggled. How professional. What a waste of what was once a great Mexican restaurant.
