The Carne asada taco salad is amazing! Carne asada is tender and flavorful. Lime vinaigrette is so crazy tasty. Eve, our waitress, is so much fun. Truly great dining experience!

Got orange chicken with fried rice and it was really good. I almost couldn't finish it since it was so much food

Nothing amazing. I didn't finish my food because it wasn't really good.The cheese dip was not fresh and our stomachs paid the price later.I would skip this place and look for some place that put emphasis on food quality.

Very clean,great and friendly service and excellent food.

Back in Poway and checking out old digs. Definately not disappointed and how stinking cute is Gina? Such a breath of fresh air. The bartender is amazing too. Thanks for helping to kill my pain. My husband is happy about finding the rare ground beef tacos.

One of our usual brunch restaurants was closed for repair and since we were in Poway we searched for an alternative that was close by. This restaurant seemed to have good reviews so we decided to give it a try.The restaurant itself is in a nice strip mall off Poway Rd. It's decorated well and offers both indoor and patio dining. It's very clean and comfortable.We were seated immediately after entering, offered our choice of inside or outside, it was quiet enough we opted for a comfortable booth inside. The waitress was attentive and friendly. Service was very good, no complaints.The food was average. Not amazing, not bad. When my food came out it was incorrect but the waitress rectified it quicky and was very sweet about it. Everything was cooked well enough but nothing really stood out about the food. I had a margarita that was tasty.Overall I'd not go out of my way to eat here again but I wouldn't balk at it if someone wanted to meet there for lunch. There are both better and worse choices in the area.

Went there tonight…not busy at all! Waited for an hour for our food…still did not arrive! Left, paid our bill for chips and a drink…canceled our order. Very disappointed!

Wow! Everything was amazing! Best margaritas around as well as the house made salsa! I got the Chile Relleno and beef burrito combo, yum!!!! The service was also amazing! Very nice and attentive staff! Can’t wait to go back and try the Chinese food to!
