Excellent carne asada tacos and mahi tacos. The mahi tacos are spicy, so ask for no jalapeño if you are sensitive. The chips and salsa are just what you need in a great Mexican restaurant.

The chicken in my chimichanga was awesome and the place looked good. The prices were on point for the portion sizes. Would recommend.

Got takeout. The chicken and spinach enchiladas were pretty good. I was looking forward to trying the chile relleno tonight but wish I would have skipped it. I'm not sure why but it was laid on a bed of what looks like wattery sloppy joe that's been run through a food processor. I'm not sure why they put a pile of meat under my chile relleno. The chili itself wasnt bad once i scraped the soggy meat off of it. They gave me chips but no salsa or sauce. Had to go back and ask for a container of white sauce and ended up getting enough for about 6 chips. Ordered cilantro rice. It was salty rice with a little pile of cilantro on top, so I guess it was all in the name but I would skip that next time. Ordered sauteed vegetables ended up with what looks like steamed broccoli, carrots and cauliflower. Very Bland and flavorless. The Jack Daniels chicken was pretty good. The chicken was cooked well. The sauce was nothing special. Tasted like Jack Daniel's BBQ sauce from the grocery store. I would probably eat here again but will be picking different items for sure. The online menu also showed that they had apple cheesecake but there was no cheesecake to be had.

Last night me and a friend went out to eat and we had a very uncomfortable experience. We were sat where we could see into the kitchen and the staff in there kept staring at us, we didn’t think anything of it but our waitress came up to us and said that the guys in the back thought we were cute. My friend told her she was 17 and I’m 21. After that they kept whistling, and moaning at us, we were very uncomfortable and just trying to ignore it. When we got up to leave one of them came to give us one of their numbers, my friend is a minor and she was very uncomfortable. We really like going to this restaurant but probably won’t be back due to this experience. We just wanted to have fun and hang out since we’re both busy a lot but our time was cut short due to what happened in there. I don’t want to get anyone in trouble but that was very uncomfortable and not how you should try to get a girls attention.

First time getting a Bacon Cheeseburger from that Mexican place! The beef was so Mexican-style. The bacon was awesome. And their Mexican rice? The best ever. One thing, though: they really need to start including forks and spoons in the bags. I ordered four days in a row, and there weren't any utensils a single time.

Excellent experience. The food, service and atmosphere were outstanding. Server was the nice balance of attentive and friendly but let you enjoy your meal without being too much. The restaurant restroom was clean and comfortable. My family and I truly enjoyed our time there.

I ordered food that came out saturated in oil so I sent it back. None the less my kids and husband meals looked legit. The staff was very understanding so even though I didn’t decide to order again I was pleased with how my kids meal came out :)

Oh Dear

Great place. Great decor. Clean. Had yummy chicken fajitas for dinner. I believe our servers name was Maureen, but I'm not sure. She was the BEST.

We've been here multiple times because it was so impressive of a Mexican Restaurant. We've taken out of town relatives and it's wonderful, flavorful food. We checked the hours of operation before heading out and saw on Sat where they are open until 11. It was around 7:30 when we arrived. We were seated and my husband ordered a drink while I used the ladies. I returned to the table and his drink was dropped off by our waitress not even asking me what I'd like to drink. This was OK for me because I have waitressed and know how stressful and busy it can be. I simply walked over to order my own drink and it was delivered. We asked for more white sauce, never brought it and our waitresses proceeded to clean the entire time after entering our food order and never brought the white sauce until asking a 2nd time. Our food arrived, and it was wonderful never a disappoint on the food however, we thought it was very rude, and distracting while we are trying to have a nice quiet meal for multiple waitresses to be sweeping all around us, slamming chairs, chatting about not paying attention to their tables. We will go back in the future but you may not want to seat people in a section later that is an early closing section as it's very rude to have your staff very loudly cleaning up all around someone who's trying to eat and enjoy the company of their spouse for 1 hour of our busy week.

Our party got 3 margaritas and all of them didn't taste like they had any alcohol in them. I was quite disappointed after paying $17 per drink. The server was nice and the food was average. I don't think I would come back here again.

This place is awesome. Walking up to the restaurant, you are met with the beautiful art around the exterior. As you walk in, you will see the elaborate glass art, statues, and furniture throughout. All of the art and furniture was brought in from Mexico (according to the owner). The food is excellent, so order as your heart desires. The tacos birria are exceptional, so this is a safe order if you have a hard time deciding.
Note that this is not a *cheap Mexican place* but it is affordable and delicious!
