The food here is more authentic than your traditional Mexican restaurant. The staff was super friendly and the food was absolutely fantastic. The homemade tortillas were superb. We will definitely be back. They also serve an assortment of Mexican drinks such as the Mexican cokes in the glass bottles. Don’t forget to top the meal off with free ice cream ? for desert. A must for lovers of Mexican food and culture.

Waitresses Not Very Attentive. Good Selection of Menu Item.Chips STALE. Hot Salsa GoodBeef Fajita Salad Good.Had to Keep Waving down Waitresses they were All Huddle up at front table on phones..chatting ..etc. And Only 5 people in there eating.

Seen a lot of reviews for bad service but our experience was overwhelmingly good. The waitress was nice and attentive. Food and drinks were well flavored. I would recommend the pozole. We came in as a party of four with no wait and there was a decent amount of people already seated. Would recommend and will be going back again.

It's been mentioned in a few other reviews, but large parties beware! First off, we had to wait forever. I understand that we are a large party, but it was kind of ridiculous. We got tired of waiting for the check, so a few of us tried paying at the front desk. They told us we could not do that and that they would bring the checks out to our table. Looking back I guess they do this so they can charge more without people noticing. They brought us our checks with only the total price, but my check seemed too high. I thought it included tip (which is normal for large parties). But when I asked the waitress, she said it did not include tip...So I went to the front to ask because it didn't add up. Not only did they charge a higher price than what was on the menu, they also basically charged 30% tip automatically, plus additional fees for using a card. At the time I was too tired to argue so I just paid the bill, but I won't be returning... I was the last one to pay for my check, so unfortunately they got away with doing this to our whole party. (30% tip plus additional tip)Most of the food was mediocre, but the salsa is good.

While I absolutely LOVE their food, they get our to-go orders wrong 75% of the time. Their staff is always very nice. We have had outstanding service inside. I no longer place orders over the phone... only inside and then wait on it. Never takes too long.

My wife's chicken fajita plate was great, all I ordered was nachos with jalapenos. To be honest I make better nachos at home. These weren't even melted completely

Food was great, glad we decided to stop in -will definitely be returning. I'd consider this more authentic Mexican food rather than Tex-Mex. We had a friendly waitress who did a good job at coming around to check on our table even though they were fairly busy at dinner time on a Sunday. Be warned that portions are very large, next time we're sharing a plate and not ordering an appetizer!

The food could be better, I expected to get sizzling fajitas in the super hot skillet but instead I got some semi warm fajitas on a regular plate. I do appreciate the fact that they make homemade tortillas but other than that I’ll chose to go elsewhere.

Food was decent. The steaks were very tough and chewy. The only other things I had issues with is that we waited for a while to order after we were ready; everyone was just walking around and talking. And the 2nd was the music was so loud that my friend and I had to yell at each other across the booth. I couldn't take it anymore and asked the waiter if he could turn the music down as it was giving both of us anxiety. He apologized and turned it down so we were able to enjoy out meals.

The service was awful. Waited about 20 minutes for the check and the salsa was very good. But it had a big piece of plastic in it. The food was okay but not great. I will not be coming back.
