I came here with my wife when it first opened, I was surprised today at the outstanding quality of the food, drinks and service, I will return here again for that man great dining experience.I had to give it 4 stars because they did mess up my order, still, I got to try something new and it was great!

I love their frozen mango margaritas with chamoy. Food is gooood. I totally recommend it.

I had been there a couple of times for breakfast. It was excellent.This time the service was great, server was super cordial and attentive.The botana for 2 was very very good, Great flavor.There is room for improvement in some of the food, for instance:- One of the sauces for the chips was sour.- The lemonade in "agua mineral" was flat with barely a hint of lemon and totally unsweetened.- The cheesecake had a nice aspect, yet it had a bad aftertaste like too many eggs on it ? I don't know for sure but it wasn't good.

First time there for us with another couple that had been there. Very slow service, other couple inquired about a certain dish and wanted to know if it could be for 2 or 4 people. And said yes u could get if for just 2. Then we had to tell them we would like beers too. And she went away..... Another waiter came over to verify our drink order as the young gal could not get the alcohol drinks. Then we got chips and salsa, soup to follow.... 30 minutes and no order taken. Then we ask if we could order? And our friends said they had already... Then right after that the other couples meal came out.... We ended upsharing there platter. One and done..food was good but service and communication was really bad.!

Had a big party here and ordered food. Only half of the peoples food came out and then took another 30 mins for the other half of our orders to come out. I lady did not get her food until we complained

I wasn't sure about this place when we first got here. Upon entering, we was politely greeted and we were seated and our drink order taken. The ambience was nice and soft country and rock music played at the time. After ordering and receiving our food. Mariachis came in and a complete charge in the mood came. The patrons where singing and we enjoyed the music to were in we even started singing songs. The food was so good that I forgot I was in a bar&grill restaurant. I really enjoyed this place and food. I would highly recommend it. The food and drinks are moderately priced. The restrooms were clean.

Well, I had their bistec ranchero. Had to add some of their salsa to spice it up, turned out pretty tasty.

So glad to see this place open again. Esther has been the best server we have encountered in many years. She was informative and really active in making sure we had a pleasant experience. Food was good, like always.

It is a nice place to go eat. Customer service is friendly and the prices are not bad. The food is excellent. I don't recommend the place if you are in a hurry because they do take long time to bring the food.

As soon as we walked in we were told there will be a wait time but with an attitude as if they didn’t want us in. Then we sit and no one bothered to take our order till about 10 minutes in… no chips no salsa and other people who kept coming in after us were served first! Poor customer service not even checked on for refills . Definitely not coming back and would NOT recommend this place to anyone …also tortilla soup sucked! It is literally campers tomato soup with avocado and tortilla chips no flavor whatsoever !
