The food was less than average and the service was poor. We went today (06/05/16) for lunch and were extremely disappointed. We got there at 12:30 and had to ask for lunch menus. Once seated and given our lunch menus we were immediately asked what we wanted to order. We dont like to be rushed so we ordered drinks while we looked over the menu. The food was nothing we would return for and my dish has a chicken bone in it. When I brought that to the attention of the waitress she just laughed and said that shouldnt be there. Main complains were feeling rushed and never having a dish cleared from the table. You would think that once finished someone would clear the plates. Not one dish was ever takes from the table. We had 3 appetizer plates and 3 dinner plates along with chips and salsa all empty on the table. Also, the waitress picked food out of the buffet and ate it while walking g around, and a bus boy was far to busy on his phone to take care of the tables. The place is not recommended and I wont be back to give it a second shot.

The "Dinner Specials" page inserted in the menu said "Large House Margarita- $6". It seemed a little pricey, but we went ahead and ordered two "Large Margaritas". When we got the bill we were charged $9 each for the two drinks. When I said they were supposed to be $6 the waitress said that is for the "HOUSE" margarita. I just smiled and said nothing, knowing that she was going to personally pay for the overcharge for me anyway, out of her tip. I thought the food was OK but overpriced. If they would lower their prices by 25% across-the-board (and stop the bait-and-switch) then I think the place would be popular. However, I was there on a Saturday evening during dinner hours and the place was at about 1/3 capacity. My guess is that they wont be in business very much longer unless they offer a better value.

Stopped in on a Friday afternoon for lunch. I was working from home and decided to stop in one afternoon. There was only a few people in the restaurant when I got there. The guy who greeted me was my server (cant remember his name). Anyway, he was very nice, kept my drink filled, and we talked until my food came out. The quesadilla with ground meat was good. A little soggy from the juice of the meat, but had a lot of flavor and they didnt slouch on the portion size. Overall, the experience was great! Will definitely have to stop in for dinner one night.

friendly staff and wonderful owners. first time here and I already feel like this will be the official spot for food and drinks. we got lucky and stayed the weekend and we enjoyed the brunch 13.99 for adults and ages 10 & under are 8.99. breakfast and lunch are 2-sided and the selection is so fresh! I love the frozen margaritas!

I love this place, always friendly staff and great food and drinks. Margaritas are good and their cream of crab is good. Heck everything is good. Even the liver and onions! Being a business owner myself, I think their prices are right where they should be. If you want to eat cheap food go to cookies and get what you pay for!

Pros: Excellent Service, ENORMOUS Tasty Margaritas, Large Portions & Great Prices Cons: We got King Burritos & a Mahi Mahi wrap. Maybe we came on an off day, but our food was bland/barely seasoned. It was a bit of a let down, but I want to give this place another go in the future and update this review

Service was really good, chips and salsa were good. Food was out fast, everything we tried was good except the taco salad. That was OK, just a little lackluster. The tortilla soup was one of the best I have had. The carnitas chimichangas were really good as well.

Food was good. Its smaller restaurant with bar. Non-Mexican dishes are available. It has a smaller menu with fewer offerings than another local place in Severna Park/Glen Burnie. Waitress, servers are very friendly and its very convenient to our home location.

If youre going to charge $19.99 for Mothers Day brunch when your normal brunch is $12.99 you should at least add one or two more things to the buffet. Instead you just charged 7 more dollars for the same stuff.

First time, food was GREAT. Super Soups, Black Bean and Tortilla were awesome. Really enjoyed the seafood fajitas. Our server Tricia couldnt have been nicer. ANd very good value. We will be BACK!

First time eating here...good food, servers seemed friendly, beer was cheap (might have been happy hour though). Parking reminded me of Germany...small spots all crammed together.

This is my wife and Is favorite restaurant in Pasadena. The food is delicious and we always enjoy hearing laughter as others are celebrating a Birthday or a meal together.

We were promptly seated to review the menu, 15 minutes later no service. A few tables came in after us and they got service immediately. Waste of time.

This is a regular favorite spot. The food is always good and the staff is great. I recommend the burrito norteno as a great alternative style burrito.

Only stopped in for a drink. They have some of the best margaritas Ive tasted! The secret is their home made sour mix.
