I had to really sit on this experience before posting this review. Took my sister here for dinner on Saturday after going sightseeing along the gorge. My husband ordered the jalapeño popper burger, tots & pineapple salsa, my sister ordered the tropical tacos w/ pork, & I ordered the blue corn enchiladas (per server’s recommendation) & a margarita. Unfortunately for us, the chips & salsa & my husband’s tots were the best part of the meal for everyone… And the chips were stale, so… My plate came out looking like it sat under a heat lamp for 30 minutes, the refried beans were dried up on my plate & tasted so bland that they were weird. The enchiladas had more cream cheese inside than chicken, & overall the plate was a bunch of slop with no flavor whatsoever. Somehow the margarita I ordered tasted bitter, almost like the lime I squeezed that went with it had gone bad. My sister’s taco shells were stale, her pork tasted flavorless. My husband’s burger had no flavor either, & the pineapple salsa is not even worth going into, was just gross. I have no idea how this place has any good reviews. I’m convinced it’s because this is the only restaurant in the area open past 8, & that none of these people have ever had good, real Mexican food in their lives. We didn’t say anything, but I definitely felt like we threw away the $68 that we were charged. There’s no fixing what we were served. The service wasn’t bad, the ambiance was decent. My honest problem was just how horrible the food was for us all. I felt like someone was playing a joke on us. I don’t know who was cooking up our food, but I’d bet they were not Hispanic. If you’re in the area & need a late night meal, don’t waste your time. I have had better food from Taco Bell, & it’s less $. Just go home & eat a PBJ.

First of all, they were the only place open after 8 pm on a Friday night, so there’s a WIN right off the top. Food portions are very large, so order accordingly. We should have shared a meal, honestly. The service is fantastic! Definitely a family owned place and the pride is obvious throughout the entire experience.

This place only had two women working on Sunday of memorial weekend. The restaurant was slammed and the staff handled it beautifully! They were so friendly, efficient and made the experience great. Food was delicious and I definitely recommend stopping by.

Ordered margaritas that tasted just like water. Chips, salsa, and guac tasted meh. Ordered vegan fajitas that didn’t come with rice. We were not told at the time of ordering that the rice had butter in it until after it had been delivered. Would have been nice to know this about a key ingredient prior to ordering.

Bartender recommended a few dishes and I took her up on 2 of them. One was the blue corn enchiladas suizas with chicken and the other was an appetizer that was a rolled flour tortilla that was deep fried like a taquito. The enchiladas were really really good but we didn’t care too much for the taquitos.

The food is yummy,the drinks are wonderful,and the employees are super friendly and helpful. They have a fund raiser they do during the year and the proceeds go to local charities. Check the ceiling and you’ll see what I mean!

Great service and good food right off the highway. They have some local beers on tap. There was only one server and we brought in a big group without a reservation for a late lunch on a Sunday. He handled it like a pro and was very accommodating. There are some public spaces to eat nearby if you would prefer to eat outside.
