Everything was good but expensive.

Went here March 5th during a break in our daughter's gymnastics meet which was in the same shopping center. Not familiar with the area (live in West burbs), so we were a little captive and didn't want to take too much time. I gave it two stars instead of one because the staff and waiter were nice/good.Main reason for the 2 is that it was expensive for typical Mexican and the food wasn't that good (don't mind paying more if it's better than usual). Many of the entrees were over $20 and we are used to paying $12-15. Was hard to find anything we'd usually order that wasn't inflated by 30-40%. And was disappointed with the food.Also, a plain old draft modelo (12 oz) was $5 (not unheard of, but on the high side) and a "large" house margarita was $16!! Was in a martini shaped glass, so not large by most Mexican restaurant standards.I don't write many negative reviews, but overpaying for lower quality...should have looked at the menu/prices before sitting down ...would have walked to the Italian place that another poster mentioned.Two drinks, two entrees $65 (including tip) for entrees on their lower end.

Not a bad little restaurant tucked in the endcap of a strip center. Food was good and service was decent.

We were intrigued to try out this restaurant. We finally did and didn’t meet our expectations. The food was okay. Typical Tex-Mex food in my opinion. The service, however, not so much since we had to call our server a couple of times. The food is pricey, but ambiance of the restaurant was good. May take a while before I come back, but glad we tried it at least once.

The food, drinks, and service are wonderful at this location. You must go on Wednesday for the filet fajitas. Always fresh! Our servers in the cantina are so friendly and attentive. Have been here many times and it’s always great.

Cynthia was our server she was great, the food is fresh a taste great. I also had the blood orange margarita, and it don't last but about two minutes?????

Yeah it’s a no for me. First off, skirt steak (fajita) is supposed to be cooked all the way. Not medium rare, it isn’t a ribeye. Way too squishy and no actual flavor. Secondly everything is overpriced. $19.99 for a burrito with rice on the side and $18 for 10 nachos. Not justifiable in my opinion.

Food is great. Service awesome. Very impressed

I really can't say enough about this palace. The service was excellent. And the food was amazing real authentic Mexican food that was so good. Is it pricey yes , prices are on the menu. My new favorite place to eat in the area. Don't leave with out sharing a piece of their tres leches cake it is to die for.

Fantastic food and service. This has been our Sunday dinner spot for months and it never disappoints.
