Liked the food so much, once we walked in there the smell was divine, very friendly staff, quick and very reasonable prices

Highly recommend this place.Atmosphere needs severe updating....maybe even add atmosphere to begin with... we don't go there for anything but the food and drinks.Staff is 5 star and the authentic Mexican food is amazing!!!!Food is definitely 5 star

Service was trash I felt like it was because I’m black I waited 20 mins to order they acted like they didn’t see me waiting I asked for pink lemonade I got a pink water instead they told me the wait for my food was 15 mins my food was cold I got the acp nothing on my plate was hot they wasn’t busy so I don’t understand I will never be back I should of went back and got my money back eww

I've been eating here for years and like their food. I usually ask for special orders, requesting no beans with a meal, etc, and I've had no problems. Everyone has been nice and last time I got takeout people were wearing masks, which was appreciated!

Have eaten at this restaurant 3 or 4 times and vowed never to return again each time because the food is so terrible. There are no other Mexican restaurants close by. Tonight I caved in and fooled myself into believing it might just work out ok. WRONG. No flavor, totally bland overcooked dry meats. Salsa tasted like tomato juice with chunks of raw onion. HORRIBLE FOOD. I'm done with giving this place chances. Too bad you have to even rate this place with one star.

I wish I could give it 0 stars I will leave a detailed review with respectI. Ordered the “fajita quesadilla” by most restaurants that means Chicken or Steak, Bell peppers, Onions, white queso inside• it usually comes with a full salad and 2 sidesII. Most restaurants have (2) sizes of queso so if you don’t want to spend $4.99 you can spend $2.25 but no. Not this restaurant. They were really aggressive about it and that made me not feel irritatedIII. They also offer a lunch portion at most restaurants even during dinner times. This restaurant does not.• The queso tastes bland• Rice is very good, nice quality and texture• Chicken w cheese quesadilla just tastes awful and not worth a $19.99 meal. Taco Bell, produces more quality at better prices and that isn’t a restaurant.• I wasn’t given a salad. I was given just lettuce in a box. I felt like an immigrant who just got their first meal off a truckIt upset my stomach and ruined my experience. People who lose money in restaurants blame the government. No, your establishment cares nothing for the customer experience, the factor of costs versus quality controls and you have no bearing on menu items. Great money making restaurants have about 10-15 items on a main course menu. You have about 45 and they mostly confuse people.However**** Below is the best Mexican restaurant in the area and it’s 5 miles from this restaurant. I would usually go here however it’s not as close to my home on 15-501 as this one is that sucks.I highly recommend : “Compadres Tequila Lounge”

The service was great, but wow, my wife and I have never been sicker after eating (hours later). We had food poisoning symptoms for well over a day.

Food, service were excellent. Our meal came in a timely manner. We enjoy it and would recommend.

For the price and the location this is a local gem. Some of the menu is standard tex-mex but there are some real surprises. The lamb shank is phenomenal.

I was honestly surprised how the salsa tasted. Very tasty and delicious! Waitress was very attentive and knowledgeable of the menu, food was authentic and very good! The salsa at a Mexican restaurant to me can make of break and in this case it made it yet the food was good enough to stand alone! Don't pass this one by
