Yeah for the price it is I’d expect a little better. Legitimately got 8 chips for nachos and my first bite of the burrito has hair in it. Could not be a bigger waste of THIRTY dollars.

Jeff Jacobson

Went for lunch. Wife had the lunch fajitas and I had the “Cancun” a seafood combo plate. Both were excellent and more the we could eat. Ended up with 3 to go boxes. Fast friendly service.

Amber

First time trying this place. Service was quick and friendly. The salsa and bean dip were delicious. The white queso was the perfect consistency. Their chicken enchiladas could use less sour cream sauce, but everything was very tasty.

Connie

The service at this place was slow. We had a large party for a graduation lunch. Abbie was our waitress, we were the first ones to arrive and the last to get our order in. My husband didn’t like the food and it was cold because she brought it out and gave to the wrong person. He was hungry so he ate it because no telling how long it would have taken to order anything else. I was sick and couldn’t eat so I missed having terrible food. But my real problem was when she gave us the ticket it has an 18%gratuity on it. I told them they want more than my church which is 10% and the service was terrible. We have no problem leaving a tip. We’re actually great tippers but when service is as bad as we received, no I will not pay. I Don’t know why that place was chosen but we won’t be going back.

We enjoy lunch here whenever I’m in the mood for Mexican food. Great tacos, fajitas, nachos and my favorite are the hot tamales. The salsa is a little too salty for me, but they also give you bean dip with your chips, so I just mix it together ❤️ The staff is always friendly and attentive.

Vickie Becker

It was GREAT!! They have best spicy green salsa verde

Michael P

Service was good. Food was disappointing, aside from the salsa, which was very good. Food seemed like it was originally cooked three or four days ago and microwaved warm when ordered. Some stuff warmer than others.

James Miller

We went to restaurant day or week or something like that. Waiter was awesome and very respectful. I took a late picture of the food so.. nicely size portions too.Nice with the sports game on. I liked it better than walk offs lol

Michael Cedotal

Although menu is exactly the same as Los Palmas food is not the same. Very expensive also. 2 people plus drinks almost $80

Catrina Rabalais (Cat)

Went here for bike night. It was okay, but not a go too for me. Gave service only 3 stars just because I ordered a drink and never received it, then they try to charge me for it. They did remove it after bringing it to their attention. The food was alright. We ate outside it was kinda chilly out, but there was no propane in the heaters, so it made it a little uncomfortable to enjoy bike night and the company.
