Reviews
"The new place is fantastic. More table room. Nice atmosphere. Great location. The food is as delicious as it always is. The waitresses are friendly and attentive. Prices are affordable."
"First time here, place was very clean, bathroom was maintained properly, waitress was efficient and kind but did leave her shift without notifying us of that, so we had another lady finish taking care of us but wasn't as polite or looked like she wanted to be there. As far as the food, chips are crispy, salsa is very bland, made of tomatoe puree with a touch of seasoning. Fountain drink was a bit flat. I ordered a breaded steak torta with rice and beans. All was good except for the rice had a fishy taste to it, may have been old reused oil. . I found a black straight short hair on the edge of my plate but I didn't say anything. Food is reasonably priced. Limited parking. Overall, it's a good place for Mexican food (close to authentic)."
"Sundays they close at 3pm. The food was real good. I had the beef fajita. Comes with five tortillas. Hardly any cheese though. I wish their "chips and salsa" chips were warm. They sell Pepsi. The chimichango could have had more spice but it was good. Tacos were real good.. There's not enough seating for sure. It was packed. So the service was slower. If in the area. Please try it. It's worth it."
"This place would get 5 stars if they had more waitresses. The place was packed for dinner and that’s a good sign. My chicken enchiladas were tasty and made fresh. Rice and beans were good, but not exceptional. It’s too bad they were out of avocados because I really wanted some guacamole. I’ll be back to try more. Also, very fairly priced food. My dinner with two beers was $20.03."
