I went by myself for a Friday lunch. I requested to be seated in the bar so I would not be disturbed by little children. I was having my drink, looking at the menu starving to death, and I was interrupted 3 times by the carpet 2 feet Ifront of me being swept. I requested it to stop so zi could eat. She came back sweeping 2 other times. It caused me to be nauseous. I asked for the manager, Sidney, she said she’s been told before by the health department not to do it but the owner makes them. I paid for my barely drank beverage and informed her I would contact the health department. WARNING: don’t go in without a mask!

Had the 5 scoops of guacamole and was underwhelmed, some black spots intermixed and very small scoops. The fajitas were extremely good though, tender and very flavorful. They also have bottle Mexican sodas and drinks that were chilled well. My husband had the large quesadilla and it was very good too. The service was great as well as the atmosphere, will definitely be back next time we come to Palestine.

Sorry, all these very positive reviews on the food must be from folks that don't get out much. The grilled chicken was dry and nothing was appropriately spiced for Mexican food. I had to sprinkle everything with black pepper too get any heat at all. Although it may still be the best place in Palestine with no comparison myself, as we were just passing through.

The food was delicious but some of the staff were a bit rude. I get it that the restaurant was packed but that doesn't mean attitudes should be given. All in all, we will definitely go back. The food is WORTH IT!!
