"I really wanted to love this restaurant. It’s close to where I live; it’s local. It’s really nice to have something close and small town, but the food has to be good. It’s just not here. It really could be but it’s just not. I got the chicken and rice my husband got steak fajita nachos. We started with the usual chips and salsa. These I could have had at home from the grocery store. Opening a bag of nachos and serving that is such a let down. Honestly, it’s cheaper to cut up your soft shells and fry them than opening that bag. It’s not that hard. And that salsa was entirely too hot. Not everyone enjoys it that hot. My dinner had a lot of meat, I’ll give it that. It was just really tasteless. The rice had spice but not flavor. The saddest part was plating it on a paper plate. That little bit of cheese sauce just got sucked up by the plate. Just terrible. My husband’s plate was a bit more but lacking more meat. Again with bagged chips and barely any cheese sauce again. It really wasn’t worth the thirty bucks."

"Very bland and average. Food had no real flavor. Grilled chicken was not seasoned at all. Service was fine and friendly, but don’t have any expectations on the food. Just a small hole in the wall place with food that will fill avoid, but not much else. I will say this is my first time here, so maybe a second visit will be better. Chicken was very dry and possibly left over from the day before. At least that is what it tasted like. Sorry, but honesty is important and I can’t rate average food any better than average!"

"Very friendly staff, food was ready when they told me it would be, the food was excellent, and I'll definitely be back on the regular"

"I got the grilled chicken salad with shrimp added and it was really good. The only thing is the meat both chicken and shrimp were slightly over cooked. But, it was still a good salad and I had a bite of meat in every bite of food. It would also help if they diced up everything in the salad. The lettuce was shredded and the rest was all the same size as if it were in a fajita, taco or burrito. Still all in all I can live with that and cut it up myself"

"First time there. Ordered the huevos Ranchero and was a let down. The star of the plate should have been the eggs and sauce. Beans, rice and sauce was good, the egg yoke should run, it was cooked solid. The service itself was pleasant. Because overall reviews have positive, I will give it a second visit and hope first time was a fluke."
