Is closed now. Food was good. Service was lacking. With more exposure and some training I think it would of been better.

Food was barely warm there was more mol’e than the 3 burritos to my dish. No one asked what type of meat I wanted they just assumed chicken. Service was fine.

Very good food and service. Loved that the servers actually knew Spanish it was very welcoming. We got our food in less than 10 minutes which was awesome.Overall great experience. Highly recommend.

Stopped here for an early dinner (3:30pm on a Monday). Started great as we were greeted at the door by a very friendly guy who showed us to a table. Food was really good but the service quickly went downhill! We ran out of chips once and then our sodas got empty. Our server never returned to the table. My husband finally had to go find him to get our ticket! My husband said to him “I think you forgot us” to which he promptly stated that they got busy on the other side of the restaurant. NOT an appropriate excuse!! Very frustrating! And they were totally indifferent. No offer to make the experience better. Won’t return!

Great service. The waiter was very attentive. The food was eatable. Chips are from a bag NOT made fresh. The refried beans have the taste and texture of straight from the can. The meat was not greasy, but also not moist or tender the lettuce tastes like its from a bag.

First time to try Lani’s and my wife and I were very impressed with the service and the food. We both had Taco salads that were excellent. Also, we tried a cheese crisp that was very good.Some good drink specials as well. We will go back.

This place use to be great, when the previous owner thomas, owned the location. He was amazing, and alwys friendly. I went here today, and I forgot to request a certain item be left off of my food, mainly because I haven’t been there in a while. At least five minutes after I ordered my food, i told my wait staff(don’t want to give away their identity), and they went to check on the order, and told me the food was ready . When wait staff brought it back they had the new manager, with them. The manager, rudely stated that he couldn’t do anything with the food, since it was already plated and was trying to force me to take the meal. I calmly told him, that i did not want it, because it had an extra ingredient on it that i did not eat. I apologized, but i told him, that it was his choice if he wanted to give me a new plate because I’m not paying for something I won’t eat. He told the wait staff to fix my order and stormed off. When the wait staff came back in, almost two minutes later, they had a new version of what I ordered. Wait staff apologized profusely, and stated that the manager was always mean and rude, and that they didn’t see the big deal in replacing a meal that is literally 4.00 to make. Waitstaff said he is horrible to his employees and not kind to the patrons. I am thankful for the wait staff, because they were attentive, apologetic and made sure we had a great meal. An employee should never have to apologize for their manager.

Worst service I’ve ever experience in my life. After we were given the menu no one came to take our drink order. We sat for about 15 minutes and saw server after server pass our table and just completely ignore us.i went up to the man at the front counter and asked if we had a server because our drink order wasn’t even taken yet. He just stared at me and I went to sit back down. He came over to our table and asked “what’s the matter” I said we’ve been sitting here and were ready to order our drinks and our food now too.so we ordered and from there on out our table was just continues ignored. No drink refills. No one asking if our food was okay nothing. And they messed my order up and gave me hard she’ll when I asked for soft shell. So I told the guy it was wrong after trying to flag someone down and he was rude about that as well. I will never be back.

The food was absolutely authentic Mexican food! The mole poblano was the best I have had outside of Mexico! !! The atmosphere was excellent, clean restaurant and the best service I’ve had in a long time. Tomas and Roberto the bartender were very helpful and on top of everything. If that wasn’t enough, the draft beer was ice cold. I don’t ever write reviews but this restaurant deserves it.

Tried lunch buffet. Was decent amount of food offered, fair price. Rather unremarkable taste and quality. We should have ordered of menu. Staff was also apparently helping in kitchen so was slow to get paid and leave. Not a great lunch choice for the area it is in.
