I was in for lunch today and the service was horrible. I wasn't greeted, and was ignored for at least 15 minutes. I told the manager/owner and he was quite indifferent. Finally got my food and the waitress had the same indifferent attitude. I felt like my business was not welcome or appreciated. I tried to tell the manager again on the way out. I received more indifference and lack of acknowledgement. I won't ever be back.....LIFE IS TO SHORT TO DEAL WITH THIS WHEN IM SPENDING MY HARD EARNED MONEY.

The food, ambiance, service, and margarita were great! Not sure why the few stars but this is definitely my new spot for Tex mex and a margarita. Two margaritas and the superior dinner for $30. That's a deal if you ask me! Highly recommend.

Ordered for take out. Half the order was missing and the other half was incorrect. Tried calling to request a fix or a refund and was placed on hold indefinitely. We used to eat here often. Now I don't think we'll be coming back.

From Greeter's to the Bar to the Food to Atmosphere to - TO GO items . . .Muy Excelenté !!!Kid-friendliness: Local (Pre Teen) TEAM accommodation while waiting in Family Food. Did NOT take away from their attentiveness to me. Them Supporting the Community is another reason we should support this business. I was very impressed.Wheelchair accessibility: Double entry doors & easy access tables.There is plenty of space for a wheelchair.

If i could give this place 0 stars I would but I want to share my recent dining experience at this restaurant last Thursday December 21. My family and I, a party of five, including two adults and three children, visited for dinner. Unfortunately, our experience was far from pleasant. My family had already been waiting for about ten minutes before I arrived, and when I got there, we waited an additional 30 minutes just to place our order. It was another 30 to 40 minutes before our food was served. During this time, we were repeatedly served water without any attention from the waitstaff.When I finally inquired about placing our order, the waitress pointed to someone who had been ignoring us the entire evening, and her response, which was delivered with a sigh and a rude tone, was, "WHAT DO YOU WANT." It was a moment that left us in disbelief, and we should have left immediately. However, the only reason we stayed was because our hungry children needed to be taken care of.To add to our disappointment, when my husband and I ordered margaritas upon my arrival, they were shockingly bad (watery and sugary). We had to send them back and opt for the frozen ones from the machine hoping they would be better. Our orders took a long time to arrive, and two of them were incorrect. It was clear that the service was subpar, and it felt as though we were not wanted there. Additionally, we couldn't help but notice the differential treatment compared to other guests, which was disheartening.What made matters worse was that we could hear unfavorable comments about other customers that were being made in Spanish, seemingly under the assumption that we didn't understand. (as the waitstaff would walk by but come back to those customers tables and smile right to them and continue to serve them, while we were ignored) And rude gestures toward us waving us off. However, as a Black Latino Spanish speaking family, we did understand what was being said, and it made our dining experience even more uncomfortable. Despite all this, my husband still left a tip.On a slightly positive note, the man we assume was a manager did comp my husband's meal due to it being incorrect. However, it's worth noting that the waitress, who initially didn't want to take our order, repeated his order back to me incorrectly, and I had to correct her, but as I said she didn't want to help us so I highly doubt she was listening.If management or whoever the owner is cares or would like more information, please let me know. However, after reading the reviews after the fact, it's clear that this isn't the first time this type of experience has happened at this establishment. It was a disappointing experience, and we will never return to this restaurant.

We have only dined in at this place and the food has always been hot and fresh. It isn't our go to Mexican place, but it is a solid one. The prices are pretty affordable and there are lots of options on the menu. They have fajitas, tacos, burritos, etc , but they also have a number of combination plates that are around$11-$13. My kid always gets a cheeseburger and it comes with seasoned fries. The kind of fries that are lightly batter dipped and fried. We pick them off her plate because they are good. The salsa is a warm salsa with cilantro and onions. We like it, but I think some people prefer when it is a cold salsa. It was pretty spicy today, but I don't remember it always being this spicy. We tried the beef fajitas and we liked it. It comes with fresh tortillas, guacamole, pico, rice, and beans. Their guacamole is very fresh and I enjoyed it for sure. Service was very friendly on a Saturday night and food came out in a reasonable amount of time. Just a side note: They take your order at the table, but you pay at the front after your meal.
