At no fault to the restaurant, when my wife and I came here, there was a very large group (25+) seated. This delayed our service significantly from getting drinks, menus, and the complimentary chips and salsa. However, our server was not attentive to us, or several other tables due to the demands of the large group. After 20 minutes we finally received the items, and waited to take our order. My wife got Caldo de Camarones y Pescado and I ordered the brisket enchiladas. Another 20 minutes of waiting and we finally received our food. Although it was hot, my enchiladas were comically tiny, while 80% of the plate was rice and beans. If there was a decent amount of meat in the enchiladas it wouldn't have been an issue, but the entire dish was insanely bland, even the enchiladas themselves had almost no flavor. Imagine taking frozen taquitos from the box and taking 20% off of that, that's the size of the enchiladas, which are priced at around $14. My wife's Caldo historically has great flavor, and this contained none of that. A singular carrot slice was found, but the soup had no real soul or flavor to be found. We paid just over $40 for an awful experience, and we will not be returning.

Highly recommend this place. The service is always amazing as is the food. It does seem like they tone down the spice sometimes though, but I’m sure some people appreciate that.

I got the barbacoa tacos for the first time today and I highly recommend. They’re not the fattier type of meat that I expected but they were still extremely tender and well seasoned. Maybe could’ve used a bit more spice so I’ll probably ask for that next time.

Great atmosphere, very inviting. The service was tremendously given. The food was fresh, hot, and made how I ordered. Flat style, extra cheese, enchiladas with fried egg on top. Ice cold Coke with 2 limes. The sauce was decent, needed a bit more flavor. Side of beans was alright. Also came with potatoes with peppers. A bit lightly cooked in my preference, they were ok.. I would definitely eat there again.
