There are three kinds of reviews. The honest, the kind who get paid to review and those that don't know any better.The meat was tasteless, the lettuce was not freshly chopped. It was lettuce out of a bag or just plain old. Rice and beans were bland. My friend taco was a taco bell shell.This is mexican style.....NOT authentic mexican anything. Your better off going to Taco Bell.I would give it a zero stars But I did not have that option. So lucky for them it gets one star.

Nice place

Food was so good

Hi, my name is Bud Bell I used to eat here three to four times a week before I move back east. I was raised in Tucson Arizona, grew up in Tucson and love Mexican food. I and my girlfriend used to eat here all the time. Back then they were open till 2:30 in the morning. They used to have a bar on the north side of the building that was always busy. We had two waiters that served us only and always did a great job. We always tip $10. That was good money in the 80s and early 90s. I always loved the food. They always make it just like I wanted it. We used to drink pitchers of margaritas. At the time they were only $3.50 a margarita pitcher. It was so funny every time we ate there. My girlfriend would always do the same thing. She would get a picture of margarita and tell them only to put three pieces of ice in it. She was so greedy but she wanted all the margarita she could get. So I always had them bring me an extra glass full of ice. I like my margarita ice cold. We always drank it on the rocks. I never did like frozen margaritas. This place might not be in the best neighborhood but the food was always perfect. I lived outside of Tucson and drove 20 miles just to eat here. One thing I used to like to was the mariachi band. They were always there. One of the waitresses that work there, we used to tip her so much money it helped put her into college. We were sad to see her go but that's how it is. Have not been home to Arizona and quite a few years. I sure do miss the weather. My current wife does not like the Heat so I'm stuck here in code Ohio. Hopefully, they're still serving great food.

Muy Rico y buena atencií³n , gracias .

El servicio y la comida son terrible. Toma mucho tiempo para agarrar la comida y el mesero casi no te llena el baso con soda. La íºltima vez la soda estaba caliente y tení­a hielo

Food is always great

Hadn't returned in about a year. Hoped food quality had improved to match their ridiculously high prices. Not surprised, VERY DISAPPOINTED. Save your money, go to a restaurant you know serves good food.

Excellent food
