We were there on a Wednesday at 5:25 and there was one young man working and was not happy to see us. He served beer and tea but could not serve margaritas because he wasn't old enough. Took out order it took about 20 minutes for one of us to get her food and another 45 minutes for the rest of us to get ours. The young man kept rolling his eyes every time we asked him for something. Food was great but don't think I will go back anytime soon.

If you like having your bartender ignore you for 10 mins straight then roll his eyes while you place your order, then this is your spot! Other than that, I enjoyed my friends there. ??‍♀️

Do not waste your time or moneyI tried them for the first timeMy food was cold, no sauce, and it wasn't enough for a child to eat...Do not waste your timeAwful ?

The chicken tacos were good very good I went in there the next time and I got old taco shells and very little meat three tacos and a drink is$9.80 for old taco shells

They have the best tacos al pastor. It is just like the Mexican food trucks I've been to, but bumped up one notch to restaraunt quality and portion. Try them if you get a chance. I am sure they have other good food but I am addicted to their tacos.

The best chips and salsa I have ever had! Food tasted authentic. Not Tex-Mex at all.Great service too!!!

We came in here on a Sunday evening at 5:30. Clearly this place has more of a disposition to be in a nightclub rather than an actual restaurant. The waitress finally came over after 10 minutes of us sitting there. Her service was incredibly bad.Then the food. Hands down the worst Mexican food I have ever had. The meat was so bad and tasted so old that both me and my wife had to stop eating our plates for fear of getting food poisoning. I know this sounds like I’m being extra but I’m not. Seriously the worst

We bought a house in town recently and are trying the local restaurants. Passed El Rodeo a few times and decided to stop in for dinner. Received chips and salsa shortly after being seated, then we ordered drinks. My husband got sweet tea and I ordered one of the frozen specialties a Banana Cabana. I also ordered an appetizer of cheese dip for the chips. Tried chips and salsa while waiting, chips were very greasy and several were soft instead of crisp. Drinks came, they were fine but no cheese dip. Then we both ordered the Rodeo Burrito, steak for me and chicken for my husband, and I tried ordering the cheese dip appetizer again. Burritos arrived and were not what we were expecting. Description from menu: "Fajita Chicken Or Steak. Served With Beans, Lettuce, Tomatoes And Sour Cream." My husband's looked like the description but the beans were missing. Mine was missing all of the "served with " items but the cheese dip was on the burrito, instead of being served as an appetizer to use for the chips. Let the waiter know that we were missing items. He sent the manager. Explained to the issue to the manager. He said the beans were inside, not what we expected but we were ok with it and he brought me my other missing items. My husband found one bean in his burrito, I found a few more but not many. The burritos tasted fine but we will not be visiting again.

Good service, good menu, but the food quality so so...I think the preparers rushed it. Overall decent. Will go back

food taste like mop water and metal. the karaoke is VERY VERY loud
