Used to work here, manager takes advantage of workers. That is why they are always under staffed. Do not recommend working in this Hostile workplace.

First time in this restaurant, not at all pleasant, the food was terrible for my taste, I felt like I was just wasting my money because we didnt even eat, we practically left all the food, totally tasteless food. And apart from being very expensive, I DO NOT RECOMMEND IT!!!

Called an order for pick up at 237pm online says they close at 6pm but they are not taking orders. And now will close at 3pm isn t that false advertising? And it s a Sunday afternoon I know many ppl who like to just eat out in Sundays before a new work week. I guess this works for them though

Parking lot looked like the restaurant was busy but upon walking in the place was nearly empty except for the staff. Should have turned around back out the door. Ordered green Chile gorditas. The masa was deep fried and filled with huge chunks of dry beef with a dab of green chili sauce on top. Could only eat half of one of three. My guest ordered the red shrimp enchiladas which she couldn t eat as they tasted of freezer burn. Two plates two beers $72.00. Way overpriced considering the poor quality of food and service. Never again!

This is a pretty little place near my home. It has a lovely fountain in the middle of the restaurant, and nice tile. They used to have lovely hand-painted chairs but I guess they were getting broken. So now theres only regular chairs and the hand-painted ones are set to the side. I love their carnitas here and their almost parillada. Their table salsa is also very good. My friends really like the red enchiladas but I cant eat red sauce. Parking: At lunch time the parking lot is usually pretty full, but there is street parking available. At dinner. Dinner? Theres usually plenty of available parking.

I ordered a glass of water with my order and was served a dirty glass. Ordered another glass of water which took over 10 mins to get served. I ordered a double cheese burger because they were out of menudo (Sunday), I was not able to lift the burger because it fell apart. Service was terrible and the food was not to my liking. One lost customer ay this establishment.

The food was served hot, and the service was great. The restaurant was clean. It was nice that they served breakfast all day. I had the huevos rancheros, and they were very tasty. Parking: When I got there, (11:00 AM) parking was scarce. When I went in the evening it was not as crowded. Wheelchair accessibility: The restaurant is wheelchair accessible. The restrooms could use some fixing. It is wheelchair accessible.

Let me start by saying the place looks nice but the service is horrible we walk in and we were the 2nd ones there and we order and our order never came out other customers started coming in and they were getting their orders first even a walk in to go order got their orders!! We would ask about order and they would just ignore us! So we paid for our coffee which by the way was14 dollars for just 4 coffees and left their horrible service.

Nice place, waitress was very nice but the food was horrible. I ordered steak and shrimp, my wife ordered the shrimp cocktail. Shrimp cocktail taisted old or under cooked and the steak had a bad taste, took one bite and left it. $43 with drinks. Chips and chile was the only thing that tasted good. This is not a real Mexican restaurant.

I like the food, its very delicious, but there is a waitress in particular who, the times we go, almost always drags the chairs very ugly and adjusts them very abruptly as if the place were alone and that looks bad and is annoying, and then she gets to mop, to sweep and he picks up the trash with his hands and when they call him from the kitchen he goes and grabs the dishes without washing his hands, and then I asked him for a disposable plate to take my food and he picked up some papers from the floor and he went and grabbed the disposable plate like this, because in order not to be ugly I served myself and took my food but obviously I didnt eat it I had to throw it away, they must be more demanding with the hygiene of their employees because like me and my dad there are many people Just as we pay attention to hygiene since we can get sick, it is so that they knew after this great pandemic that we went through and especially since many older people go and they are more likely to get sick. Please call their attention and tell them to wash their hands when they finish cleaning and before picking up the dishes.

Oh my globs.. let me tell you guys this restaurant was worth going too. From the salsa to the main dishes my partner and I got that day we went are totally worth it! I got some fajita chicken tacos, while my partner got the regular fajitas and they were bomb! So going there again! The staff was very friendly. Came to check up on us a couple times but mostly just let us be which in my option is the best thing when we can just eat peacefully you know. We dont need much checking in and being asking is everything good were not picky haha

First time and last . Empty place. Very nice waitress, the service was fast . Food ok. Good prices overall ok. But....omg we were eating and a worker started checking or doing something to the ceiling, and working in front of our table. So..dust and debris fell off into our plates! Amazingly the owner (or manager, i wasnt sure) was there and saw but didnt say anything. Me and my husband left we were very upset. No apologies from the manager. It was surreal. We will never come back.

We were the only people there and took about 45 minutes to be served. My daughter ordered a simple order of chicken strips and it was extremely bland and dry. My wife ordered the shredded beef tacos and they tasted like fish. It seemed that they fried the tacos in the same oil they fry the fish. Completely disgusting. The only thing the hostess and server could say was Oh! Never going back.

The waitress was by herself and bussed every table, put out drinks, took orders, brought food still piping hot and refilled our drinks and chile with tostadas. She was an amazing waitress! Food was delicious and hot! The tacos were perfect (chicken) and had extra cheese. Definitely will go there when in the area.
