I typically order their Baja Shrimp Tacos. I enjoy how well marinated they are. Overall I’ve had a positive experience with the food and staff. Eric provides phenomenal customer service soon as you walk in the door. Keep up the great work!!Food: 5/5
i saw the waitress refill the drinking water pitcher in the “hand wash only” sink behind the bar that the bartender also washes their dishes in. she put the pitcher down into the sink and let it fill up, poured it into a glass, and served it to a customer. edit: nevermind i just saw someone knock the ice scoop onto the floor, rinse it off for a few seconds in the sink, and hung it back up to be used
Brought my kids here for dinner last week. Very cute and nicely decorated Mexican restaurant with live music. I enjoyed my Mango Margarita, and my son especially liked chicken wings. Very reasonable price, and dishes are larger-sized. Will be back more for sure.
Called and got a reservation for a big party of 11. We ordered drinks first which was good but it took over an hour for us to order food while other tables that arrived at the same time as us got their food and finished their food and our order was still not taken. Finally, we ordered after an hour and when we received the bill and told the waitress that there was an extra drink that was charged she told us we were wrong when there was clearly only 6 instead of 7 drinks on the table. The food was okay not the best but the service was awful.
Nice Mexican food and nominal price 3 years ago. Now things have changed and price gone up just like anywhere else. Service is good.
Great and very authentic! Drinks are great also! This review covers two visits as I went twice in 10 days!Food: 5/5
I went to have some lunch today around 3pm and when we arrived there was one table and one person at the bar. We waited 9 minutes at the table and no one approached our table. We weren’t even given a menu or acknowledged in those 9 minutes. The only waitress there was too busy giving out her phone number to even come over. When we got up to leave the only respond we had was “bye”. I was willing to give this place another chance after a previous bad incident, but I was disappointed again. The food is decent but the service is poor
This establishment offers great service, excellent Margaritas and HEALTHY portions. Definitely a must to stop in and experience great choices of of food, drink and music. 5 stars!!!
Went here for the first time and it won't be our last. To start, we had chips, salsa, and guacamole. I ordered 4 tacos lengua, al pastor, chorizo, and carnita with a side of rice. The lengua was but into thick slices, which I've never had in that way, but it was extremely tender and flavorful. The al pastor was fantastic.. these two would be the ones I order again. I'll also ask for a slice of lime to use with the tacos. The chorizo was ok and the carnitas were a little too dry for my liking. I wish I had room for the churros, but we'll definitely be getting them next time. Service was extremely attentive and kind.
This place got us through the pandemic. We've been ordering takeout from here every other week or so since September and have never been disappointed. Good variety on the menu, including gluten free and vegetarian options. We like the green enchiladas, enfrijoladas, guacamole, and margaritas! Our takeout orders are always ready for pickup on time, the price is right, and everyone who works there is so friendly. We are also looking forward to dining in at some point---they have a cute outdoor seating area with plenty of tables. We feel so lucky to have this place in town.
