The food and atmosphere are top-notch. However, the last two times I've been to this location, our waitresses would ignore our table. We got sat down at the exact same table the two times I've been to this location, and we would get ignored after being sat down. I completely understand waitresses needing to take breaks and/or lunch. But to not even let any other waitress know so they could help our table or something is just very poor judgment, in my opinion. We would be at our table with no refills, napkins, utensils, tortillas, etc, for well over 15 minutes.

That kind of service is something I could look past the 1st time.. but a 2nd time and being sat at the exact same table as the prior visit? Either it's a big coincidence, or that's the table they use to put people on ignore. I'll give this place one more chance, and maybe I'll change my rating in service, but for now, it'll be a 1/5. The food and atmosphere are awesome, though.

If my 3rd trip here is the same, I won't be going back to this location and will just stick to going to the one near Jackson.

Edit: I've gone back 2 more times since I first uploaded my review. The past couple of times that I went after my review have been a lot better. The service had dramatically improved, and it felt like a much better experience. The food has been amazing as always, and the ambiance is great, too! I am not giving the service a 5/5 yet because I still have to keep in mind the first two times being horrible. That's not an easy thing to forget, and just let go of. It also wouldn't be fair to not be truthful to people reading this review. Especially if they felt duped because they, too, had a bad experience at the restaurant.

The golden tacos taste like old oil, I went 1 hour ago and I returned and I preferred to go home to eat since even the tortillas had to be removed from the edge since they were stiff, the first and only time I go

The food was very cold, everything was overheated, the truth is, a terrible place outside, it doesn't look clean, now I imagine what it is like in the kitchen...

Check cold and unflavored food well

As soon as I went inside the place was filthy and as soon as I ate the food I had an allergic reaction to it! I think it was cross contamination because Iโ€™m only allergic to shellfish. DONT COME

Anonymous: Guest that care:

Big suggestion for the owner of this restaurant:: You can entice more patrons to rent the back room for an event with the occupancy at least 50 to 60 if you fixed the rest room and make it look decent, clean and new because it's was too dingy when I attended an event in that area. I'm sure you'll make more money if it's clean and descent. I bowl didn't even flushed and as I opened, it's full of floating stool that made me nauseous and won't flush. No wonder the person I followed could not flush even if she tried because "it's out of order". From then on we used the restroom outside. I almost vomited the food I ate. Please renovate it so it will look like new.

After 10 minutes, the waitress doesn't serve drinks, because they disappear. And they're just waiting you to leave

First-timer. This is a buffet style Mexican restaurant. A flat fee per person. The choices are very good. I cannot eat eggs but still managed to find everything I needed. Fresh fruit, different potato dishes, meats, menudo (2 kinds), fresh tortillas, pancakes and omelets. Servers bring you drinks and check up on you. It's simplest if you speak Spanish but there's help available if you don't. I would go again, good family style ๐Ÿ˜Ž
