The food was great. Fried shrimp yummy. Will be returning for Buffet.

The new remodel looks so amazing, great food, and good prices.

Great food. Quick and polite service. Modern and authentic. Very clean restaurant ?

The place was not very clean, the buffet was cold and the food had ZERO flavor. We had to flag help down to get refills of water. All the staff were too busy congregated at the hostess station to wait on customers. Definitely not a place I'll return to.

It was always my favorite until the remodel. The food was bland. Service was terrible. And with the open atmosphere it felt like we was all there together and I didn’t know any of the the people setting up under me. Lol.

Food portion was good. Food was alright. Plates didn’t look like the pictures on the menu. Alcohol drink list was no where to be found. Ordered a medium strawberry margarita and it was $12.75! I can’t imagine how much a large cost. Most places in town serve the same margarita for half the price! Over 3 dollars for a regular drink with only ONE refill. Remodel looked great but the actually operations side isn’t too hot looking.

If you want decent Mexican Food please look elsewhere. Ordered from the lunch menu (must open the app because they don't publish prices on their hand out menus). So this is the cheese steak burrito (or what they claim is the cheese steak burrito). Never in my life have I had a cheese steak burrito like this.....very certain it was pork. Manager wanted to argue with me on the meat type. I didn't eat but several bites and asked for the check. This piece aggravated me more than anything else when the check arrives they charged us for the dinner portions. Once again the manager came over and said to me that I physically pointed at the dinner menu. He wasn't at the table when I ordered and furthermore I had the app open in front of the server. Ironically he had the correct pricing on the ticket when he dropped the new one off at the table. The only positive thing I could say was he finally said you don't owe anything. Despite the beautiful remodel this place is a bust for the food.

Prices are absolutely insane now. Renovations took three times longer than they were supposed to and they've definitely pushed those costs onto the customer. New layout is really weird, and no prices on the menu. Absolutely couldn't believe the quesadilla plate with rice is $16. Won't be going back.

Was my favorite restaurant! I was so disappointed last night after there new opening. Love the upgrades but the service was terrible, the drinks were not made correctly and more juice than anything, and the prices have increased to more than I have ever paid at any Mexican restaurant!

food was mediocre. service was terrible....don't think we ever go back
