Tried this restaurant tonight. Food was good, priced same as others types of Mexican restaurants locally. Down side was no tap beer, up side service was excellent. My wife loved the shrimp quesadillas which a lot restaurants do not serve. We loved the margaritas with grand mariner, what we used to call a Cadillac margarita. Excellent pour and great pricing. Cant wait to go back soon.

New name, New menu, food not the same. It's now generic tex mex with no flavor. I was so disappointed in everything. Waitress only listened to half of what I told her, charged me for items I didn't get or order, food bland, only thing the same was a couple of servers. Was looking forward to going to dinner and didn't even notice the sign changed and the menu doesn't have any of the old options we loved. Will not be going back. And it's sad bc it was one of out favorite places. Oh not to mention the $$$$ it's more expensive to eat here now. Save ur money go elsewhere

Great happy hour! Food was good, i think more seasoning would be great. Kinda like an ordinary restaurant. They recently changed to a different name this month.
Eric Wolf
Great food. And even better service. It wasn't just my waiter I had multiple people stop by and offer us more chips, another beer, etc. This was at 5 pm though so if you come later your mileage may vary!

Food was delicious! The portions, the freshness, and the SERVICE were perfect for this SUNday with the family. We enjoyed our dining experience and all staff were attentive and very welcoming. Disappointing to find out they will be transitioning to a different franchise because that changes menu items and the current menu has MANY entrees to choose from.

Service was best to none. We sat on the patio. Waited about 10 minutes befire a server attended to our drink and brought chips. I had to go to the door and get someone's attention every time we needed refills or basic things like silverware or salsa.

We had a 6 person pre thanksgiving get together last night. None of us had ever been hear. My son just researched a place where we could all meet between all of our homes. I must say the food was very good. I had cheese enchiladas, rice, beans and a chili relleno on the side. It was so good. The chili relleno was full of beef and cheese and flavored amazingly. The prices were low enough for even me to afford. I don't remember our waiters name but he was excellent. Very friendly and always checking. My wife ordered sopaipillas for 3 of us. Thick, sweet extra butter and honey. Delicious! The only reason I didn't give 5 stars, there's only 4 spaces in front of building to park. The rest is a little too far away.

The food is very average. Fajita beef was not good quality and was over cooked. Service was good but the food is like thousands of other Mexican places in TX. No comparison to Pappasitos or Lupe.

The service was great! Unfortunately, the food not so much. Ordered a burrito with chicken and ground beef. The rice was “meh” and the chicken tasted like it was from a can. I was told they were picked up by El Monarca and will become another location, so hoping for the same quality food since they are delicious. Best of luck … and hoping to give you 5 stars on my next visit!
All the staff are friendly helpful and great team work. Good was delicious and a fair price, I will definitely eat there again, thanks team for a pleasant lunch experience.

This place use to be a go to for me and my wife but not no more ... ordered fajitas for two to be picked up . Once arrived there was nobody there on a Saturday around 5 pm (should have took it as a sign) but arrived and there was young teens in front just goofing off the waiters were just plopped around at the entrance on phones .. a young man asked me the name for order and it came out pretty fast ... but the meat was definitely cooked a different day and just heated up tasted like it's been froze a few times ... funny but not funny we didn't want it to go to waste so we gave it to parents dogs and today it's still there ... the dog wouldn't even eat it ... I hate leaving reviews like this but maybe it will save someone $40 ther reason for two stars is because it was fast and my wife said at least the chips wasn't stale ... but yeah if craving good Mexican food go to literally any Mexican establishments but this one .... I'll be surprised if me and my wife don't get sick in the next 24 hours ... save your money and time

Hands down customer service was amazing as soon as we walked in the door! Food was hot fresh and seasoned to perfection the fajita enchilada meat melted in my mouth. Don’t think twice just go ??♀️
