Great experience tonight. Wait was long, which was expected being 5/5.. but the food was amazing!Grilled chicken tacos and rice. Great amount of flavor. So delicious. Chips and salsa, the salsa had a small kick to it but it was good!

Absolutely excellent service. People were coming around every few minutes making sure we had what we needed (but not pestering), and they were all very friendly. The food was some of the best I've had. Chips and salsa were great and plentiful. Prices slightly higher than what I'm used to for Mexican food, but it's worth it. We were very impressed.

Nice place for Mexican food. Shrimp tacos were good and many different types of margaritas available. Priced right. Service pretty good.

Alright, I'll start out with the positive, it has great food and decent sized portions.Now for the negative. The place is too crowded to the point they don't have enough staff to take care of everything, and when you can get a hold of a waiter it takes forever for them to actually take care of the issue. Some of the waiters have issues with short changing people. Not only that but an hour and a half to wait for food, I was lucky I didn't get a ticket for parking in a three hour spot because that's how long it took minus 30 minutes to eat and get out. All in all, its a great place if you don't mind a night out a popular spot, but not great for family get together if you want to be heard without feeling like you have to shout.

Great food..fun place.

liked the traditional lime margarita for $5 on Wednesday. Lunch menu was a great value.

This place is amazing ! Great food and service was on point . Must do table side guacamole spicy is on point . I got the meat bowl which has all land and sea animals. Fair warning don’t eat before !

Friendly service. Great food. Tableside guacamole is delicious!

This was my first time here and i was very impressed. Good customer service, quick service, and overall great experience. Will definitely come here again.

Had a great lunch on Tuesday. Service was friendly and thorough. The place is clean and bright. Margaritas are delicious and borderline dangerous. The lunch special was the fajitas and it was huge and delicious. Highly recommend this place.
