Advertise what you can buy at the tables, but tell you you can only get the special price in the bar section. You can pay full price and get the exact same thing at the table - just discriminates against people that have younger people with them!

Absolutely horrible service. Walked in and was seated. And for the next 15 minutes we waited and not a single employee bothered to even ask if I wanted anything to drink let alone to take our order. Horrible service.

Loved my food! Quality authentic Mexican cuisine! Deee-lish!! My Long Island was made to perfection. The staff was welcoming and amazing!!! My niece didn't like her virgin Daiquiri so they brought her a cola no charge for the Daiquiri! They heard us singing "Happy Birthday" and brought her some yummy Sopapillas! Would definitely recommend to anyone who loves real Mexican food. Can't wait to go back again!

Good food, typical atmosphere but man was the service slow. We went at lunch time and it was pretty empty. We had a hard time getting refills and napkins you know the typical stuff you need when dining with a family.

Delicious food. The molcajete, was absolutely delicious the best I've had. The atmosphere and the decor was also very nice and very comfortable. The music choices were a bit off they seem to jump around it'd be nicer if it was consistent with the authentic feel of the restaurant.
The portion sizes were very generous.
Even the kids menu portion.
My second visit so far.
The first visit the owner came up and talked with us and I had the best server I probably ever had at any restaurant. This most current visit I had a server who left before I could place my order so the server switched and the next lady was very sweet in manner but insincere (not too big of a deal I'll take polite but doesn't care over openly not caring) definitely will return.
The Owner was a pretty nice Guy and super friendly and took pride in his business and food.
If you're looking for some beautiful scenery some relaxing atmosphere and some quality food yet this place and enjoy.
But if you're going to order a margarita order an extra shot or two because they are extra weak. But on the bright side they have the Primo selection of tequila!
Parking: Plenty of parking spots easy to get in and out
Kid-friendliness: They have a kid-friendly menu with good portion sizes for the price. But you have to order some green salsa or some not hot salsa with the chips because they'll bring you the fire salsa right off the top even if you have a kid with you.

The service was iffy at best but we were a large group of 12. I think the server was new because she would disappear for long periods. I love this place and the entire family eats there often and this is usually not a problem. The food is good and the servings generous. The menu has something for everyone, and there's a nice little children's menu, too.
Kid-friendliness: Good family setting, and they have a nice kid's menu with crayons to color it while waiting for the food. Also, the free chips help, too.
