Like most mexican joints you get chips and salsa, the salsa was really good but what I really enjoyed was the cheese and bean dip that also came with the chips and salsa instead of the white sauce. We ordered the tacos (shrimp and chorizo), while they were flavored and good they were lacking in the filing department. Definitely felt shorted on the ingredients of shrimp, sautéed onions, and pico de gallo ratio - the chorizo was a bit dry and had a good amount of meat but the ratio again was lacking. The rice was also lacking in flavor. We feel it was more americanized mexican than mexican.

Excellent service and food. I had the chicken salad and my wife the Camarones a la diabla and we were not disappointed.

Pretty good dinner but not the best Mexican we've had. I had the California Burrito and it was very soggy, not crisp like other places I've had the same, I'd say the sauce was too watery. The queso is white with beans (no thanks, just give me regular queso!). Salsa was ok, a bit spicy which was good, flavor was fair. Wife and kids seemed to enjoy their food but again, this is not the best Mexican joint we've been to... we frequent quite a few

I'm glad that they have re-opened. A very friendly staff and good food. Service was a little slower than usual but they just re-opened. The tacos debirria were really good but the choripollo was just okay. We will go back.

Meat in taco’s was tougher than shoe leather. When I expressed this to the owner he just walked away. This was our first and last visit. Not the hospitality you would expect in a fine or even good Mexican restaurant . None of the staff ever broke a smile. Definitely not worth the paso’s.

As a vegetarian, it means the world to me, to not find pieces of stray meat inside my burrito. NEVER has that happened here. My veggies are always meat free. That shows the quality control that restaurants just don't display anymore.
