Service was nonexistent. Waitress took our order and someone else brought our food out it was warm, not hot but no one returned to ask if we needed anything. We finally had to ask someone walking by for our bill and a drink refill. He finally came back by and said our bill was at the register. Will not go there again. It’s to bad the food use to be good.
Not sure what has happen to the food at this place it was always great and had been going there for years but it has been going downhill this past year. Ate there on Saturday and was so disappointed. We have decided to try out some new Mexican restaurants since the food has gone downhill. Even the salsa taste watered down.
Take out food is nasty. Won’t be doing that again. Overrated
