This is our go-to Mexican restaurant. Polite fast service (just TRY to run out of a drink ... it's nearly impossible). I normally either get fajitas or taco salad and have never been disappointed in either. Large room for plenty of people or spacing out from others.

I’m so sorry, but this place sucked so bad ?? The server was so friendly, absolutely nothing against the staff. The food was just absolutely horrible. First off the salsa…oh my goodness, I swear it was just ketchup with a few sprigs of dried green onion thrown in it for some “flare”. I ordered the Chile relleno which came with rice, beans and a “guacamole salad”. The Chile relleno… have they ever actually had one before? Because this was straight Taco Bell ground meat blended to the texture of cat food, then stuffed into the skin of a poblano pepper. Nothing else to it besides a splash of enchilada sauce straight from the can. I took one bite, and couldn’t believe what I was eating. I tried giving it a chance by mixing some of the tacobell meat into the rice and beans, and it was just so awful I could barely swallow my bite. The guacamole salad was literally shredded lettuce with a scoop of guac thrown on it and a half-sliced tomato. The whole meal was just so comically bad, my husband and I still can’t stop laughing at how awful it really was. If you consider Taco Bell authentic Mexican food, then this place is 100% for you. You will LOVE IT. But if you’re looking for real Mexican food, yikes… these other 5 star “best place in town” reviews have me questioning everyone’s tastebuds, lol. Y’all must think Olive Garden is fine dining ?

Our food order came fast and was very good. The only thing I didn't like is they do not serve horchata.

I didn't want to be too harsh because they are local, and the staff is nice. Chips are always stale/burnt, salsa isn't much to brag about, and nothing really that is good on the menu. I've had their taco salad, quesadillas (hit and miss), and other stuff and it's nothing to brag about. I only go here when family wants to, it's never our first choice. I wouldn't recommend stopping if you're travelling through.

Salsa was the worst I've ever had. Tasted like ketchup and was a weird texture. The menu selection was lacking. My wife's margarita tasted like cheap tequila and a bottle mix like you can get at Walmart. They only offer bottle beer and don't have anything on tap.It was recommended by a friend but we were very disappointed. Will not be back.I owe my regular Mexican restaurant an apology for even trying this one.Only gave one star because it won't let me give a -1

The food was good and I would like to Come back

I've never been disappointed in Mexican food until today. The salsa tastes like tomato paste mixed with water & jalapenos. The ground beef has no seasoning and is greasy, The fajitas come with 75% onion/pepper and 25% meat. The refried beans taste like they are out of a can with no seasoning and the rice is lacking seasoning. Altogether disappointed.

We had such a lovely time here. The prices were great and the food was phenomenal. I had the pork carnitas, as recommended by our server. The pork was very tender and flavorful and all the dressings were fresh. Everyone was very pleasant. Giving 4 stars because the salsa wasn't my favorite...a little like slightly seasoned tomato sauce. All in all--will definitely be back.

Staff was very polite and food was great, will be coming back for sure!

Service was great. We had the best waiter. Our glasses never got half empty and he kept the chips and salsa topped off. Steak nachos were awesome! Chicken chimichanga was a little well done.
