I tried contacting the owner(s) before leaving this review. I grew up and live less than half a mile and have been coming to this place since day 1.... Our experience was in April and I still feel strong enough about it to post it now. Disgusted and disappointed with our experience. There wasn't any communication issue, we are bilingual... My partner and I were offered queso when we ordered guacamole; which we politely declined, and informed our server we are both lactose intolerant and do not eat dairy. Our initial tacos that we ordered after the guacamole appetizer were spectacular as always... However when we ordered round two; for some reason, we were served tacos with cheese... Our server came back with new tacos that were undercooked meat by itself with nothing else layed onto flour tortillas. After receiving the undercooked meat tacos our server as well as the rest of the staff blatantly ignored us.. We had to get the cooks attention just to get our check... When I questioned why we were being charged for something inedible, our server became indignant. We decided it wasn't worth causing a scene and should not have just paid for it. Sorry to leave you guys a bad review; but it was earned.
Medalith was an attentive and courteous waitress, her customer skills and charisma was exceptional. Definitely a great service and even better food 🔥
This place is a vibe.
I walked in planning to order a simple meal, but then I noticed they had a buffet. Naturally, being a bit frugal, I decided to check it out. After seeing the options, I went for it. The buffet was $24.99 on Sunday, June 8, 2025.
The hostess—who I honestly thought was a child at first—seated me and handed me a knife, fork, and some paper towels. Shortly after, the owner came by and kindly explained the dishes, as they were labeled in Spanish. I grabbed my first plate, sat down, and dug in. The food was good—just a heads-up that some of the meats have bones in them.
After finishing my second plate, the hostess came over and tried to take my utensils, which made me realize this might not be an all-you-can-eat situation. It seemed more like a two-plate limit. I let her know I was planning on getting more. I went back up, and the manager approached me again, continuing to offer information. It felt a bit intrusive at that point, but I appreciated the effort and carried on.
I grabbed some tacos (they're generous with the meat). After that second plate, I was stuffed—like really full. I paid my bill and left feeling satisfied. The food was great, but if you're someone who gets self-conscious about being watched or possibly discouraged from getting more food, it might not be the best fit. I didn’t go beyond two plates, and honestly, I’m not sure how well that would’ve gone over if I had tried—haha.
I was also told they have taco buffets on certain days, so I might check that out in the future.
Great food. Thanks again.
Food was authentic. Service is a hit or miss. Our server was a teenager, our order was wrong and the table near us also got wrong order. Another senior server corrected the issues and made everything right.
Best food ever.
It was a very good place as far as customer service. The waiters are always walking around, asking if you need something, but not too much to annoy you the food there was top-notch and it was displayed very well by the chef. Would definitely go back again.
Went for the Sunday buffet with my husband. Food was pretty good just a little crowded. They need some more room and a little bit better of a set up. Otherwise, this would be an amazing place. I would not recommend if you have allergies because the chances of cross-contamination

Ordered the 20 taco pack to go. Portions were great! The Al Pastor tacos were my favorite but the Carne Asada was also very good. Super helpful over the phone and packaged well.

The service here is horrendous. My family and I got up to grab food and when we returned they had taken our drinks away. My sisters got some chicken and it was still pink on the inside. When we asked for refills they would say they would get it for us and the third person to ask was the person to finally bring our drinks again. We received trays instead of plates to go get food. And there were even people reusing the same plate they got since no new plates were brought to the tables. It’s terribly unsafe to reuse the same plates at buffets since it can cause cross-contamination. Honestly I’ll stick to Chinese buffets and Golden Corral. We will obviously not be returning to this establishment ever again.

The worst thing I've ever seen is a crowd, there is no organization, bad service, in my experience it was a terrible step that they had served us the drinks and we went to have the food and we returned to the table and the drinks were no longer there, the food was frozen and it took a long time to fill the food and they don't have everything they say right now and nothing and apart from the chicken in their mole it is raw even with blood it was horrible I won't go back to that place and I don't recommend it I think some naive people only go once and don't come back. One goes for the first time because we didn't know how it was going to happen to us.
