Got the wrong order, so I never got my dinner. The food looked like it had sat under a heat lamp, and the wings were dry.

Our first trip here and we didn’t regret it. We were pleasantly greeted and sat right away. We went straight to the chips and salsa and it was delicious. Drinks were big and tasty and the dinner was outstanding. My Chile Relleno was better than other local stores I’ve had. It took them just a minute longer than you’d expect from the normal speedy Mexican restaurants, but we actually enjoyed the extra 5 minutes, and it was well worth it. We plan on returning.

Bad service, wrong order delivered. Half food was missing. Never got refills on drinks and when approached the manager with concerns he tried to tell me my 5 year old grand daughter and daughter had to wait for me for two hours and they both drank two margaritas. I came with them

Surprisingly very good! Service was slow on a Wed lunch break with co-workers but the tex-mex burger with chorizo, avocado and jalapeño peppers…with a side of fries, was well worth the wait. Would absolutely recommend to anyone who wouldn’t mind a somewhat relaxed service experience.

Nice aesthetic in the restaurant; fixtures were clean and everything felt… new? Decor is tastefully executed and the fireplace is beautiful. Staff is friendly/professional. Extensive menu features everything you’d expect as well as some lesser known options- there’s definitely something for everyone. Complimentary chips appear to be made in-house and lunch order came out quickly. The carnitas had great texture and flavor. Highly recommend. Would definitely come back if I’m ever in the area again.

Used to be pretty good but too much employee turnover and the service and quality aren’t there anymore

Burrito Texano and an open faced grilled steak strips with rice and salad with two tortillas. Both of these were delicious and plenty enough for four normal people. Wife raved about the rice I loved mine and the shrimp in the Burritos were as good as I have ever had.

Loved it. Quality Tex-mex. Not authentic, if you’re looking for that. But this is delicious and priced right. I got the shrimp tacos and enjoyed the patio seating. Service was kind and exactly what I would expect. The side of beans were fresh with the pico on top. Cilantro and tomato in that was good. The shrimp was grilled with great flavor and it was a simply good meal. Chips are yellow corn (my preference) and come with mild salsa and white sauce. I’ll be going back!

We ordered their jumbo sized margarita after asking our server how much it was. He told us it was 8.99. We get our bill & we see it is actually 18.99. Had we known the drink was almost $20 we wouldn’t have ordered it. I went to the host table to pay and explain the confusion and he went over to the manager who was sitting at the booth 5 feet away who said “tHeReS nOtHiNg We CaN dO.” Didn’t even look in my direction or bother to come speak to me about it. It’s amazing that they can justify their servers telling their customers wildly wrong prices about things on the menu that have no price indicators what so ever. I will not be dining here again.
