The front staff were not very friendly. We didn't wait long to be seated as they were not very busy. The waitress seemed very rushed, which is odd when you are not busy at 545 on a Saturday night. Possibly a red flag.. The drinks and chips came out quick. The chips were very low on salt but were warm. The salsa was pretty basic, not the worst, but I have had way better. Then comes the food. The chicken and steak fajitas were ok. Grilled chicken nachos were a hit with my teen, but the only thing that comes on them is chips chicken and queso. The shredded chicken nachos came with hardly any chips and no queso. You must pay extra for lettuce, Pico, jalapeños and sour cream, which I added. I ended up with a glorified overpriced bowl of chicken, a minor amount of jalapeños and Pico, yet loads of lettuce. When we asked about the queso, we were told it's like water sitting on the bottom of the plate.. The other nachos we paid for had queso, which wasn't water. The cheese quesadilla, which was ordered by an adult, came as a child sized quesadilla. If they are infact this small, why wouldn't you alert an adult who ordered this as an entree. The Mexican potatoes were weird. They were some type of mashed potatoes. They looked similar to sweet potatoes. 2 people at the table tried them, and both said they are not sweet potatoes, have an odd texture, and not so great flavor. Overall, I gave 2 stars because the food was mediocre but expensive. I also left hungry because I wasn't eating a plate of chicken and lettuce. I would have given 1 star, but the manager took the nachos that came without queso and 5 total chips off the bill.Vegetarian options: Small amount of vegetarian dishes. Every option is the exact same ingredients.Kid-friendliness: It's NOT very kid friendly. They don't have a kids menu with crayons. Only a small section inside the adult menu for high-priced kids' meals. Milk and juice are not free refills with kids' meals.. They do have high chairs.
We live right down the road from this place so we go quite often. The service is great, the staff is very kind and attentive. You have to try the avocado fries, they are like heaven in your mouth. If you're looking for a good marg, I'd go with the jalapeño margarita, just the right bit of kick. I got the pollo Yucatan last time I was in there and it did not disappoint!

Mann, this place has gone way downhill. My friend lives next to the Forest Hill location and this place pales in comparison. Service is decent enough but the food is terrible. We ordered the quesabirria tacos today...sloppy wet tacos. How ya gonna have a wet taco?! Salsa from a jar, not fresh. Jalapeños in margs not muddled, just dropped into drink. No bueno, Mexico.

I just paid $60 plus tip for a take out order. I received the most bland shrimp and scallop fajitas ever, just grease, veggies and un-seasoned seafood. My daughter's tacos where filled with grease pooled meat. Too tired to get back in the car and take it all back. This is our last visit to this restaurant.
