While waiting for my food to come out a roach crawled across the table I was sitting out. Never ever again will I go there.

Excellent service, friendly atmosphere. Food presentation was perfect. Meals were served hot and tasted delicious.

Jose the manager basically told us too bad your mango margarita didn’t have enough mango in it. We tried to explain to him that bringing a small container to the table with mango syrup is NOT ok! Our food was extremely salty and our waiter was unresponsive to my request for a mango margarita that was truly a mango margarita! Sad because we have been coming here for awhile. But lately it has been bad food and bad drinks. I’ll go someplace that truly makes good food and margaritas.

Great food. Service can be a bit slow, bc they are always busy. The place is very loud because the rooms are big & full of people. Not good for people who don't like loud environments, like people with dementia or autism. Our food didn't come out together, but it was very good.

Parking: Place is popular bc the food is good, so parking is hard to find.

Quality of food has seriously declined over the past couple of years. Last visit we ordered ribs, with beef and chicken fajita. Ribs appeared to have been boiled in water and just coated in BBQ sauce, very disgusting taste and texture. They continue to remove items off the menu plates as prices have increased significantly. Time to find a new spot to enjoy.

The Trevino family needs to pay attention to this restaurant. The place is so musty and dirty. Replace/clean the walkway rugs?!?! The salsa is nothing but water nowadays….it used to be very good. Last time my family and I come here. This place has become a dump!

Our server didn't seem to be having a good evening. She was interacting with her regular customers but not our table. (Lili) :(
