I wish i could give this place less than 1 star!!!! Ive gone to this restaurant off and on for a few years, but it is definitely going downhill fast. The food itself is only mediocre for "Tex Mex". Yesterday, my boyfriend and I went here for lunch. We both ordered a large order of the chicken tortilla soup so that we would have leftovers for the next day. First of all, the large bowl mainly consisted of broth. I found maybe two scoops of shredded chicken in my entire bowl, so i kindly requested more chicken. The manger took his time to bring over a plate of shredded chicken. After the meal, we both asked for to-go containers for the remainder of our soups. A waiter came by to drop some containers off while carrying a tray of glasses/salsa from a table that had just been cleaned off. This entire tray came crashing down on our table and all over me. So, now Im covered with salsa and water, and so is my soup. The waiters ask if i still want to take the soup to go. What???? No, I do not want to take someones leftover water and salsa in my soup to go. Let me also state that this "incident" was loud enough for the entire restaurant to here. Not once did the manager ever come over and apologize. Our waiter (who did not drop the tray) came back and handed us the check. The manager, again, did not offer to comp our meal or anything, so we had to go to the front and ask to speak with the manager. At this point, my entire left side is soaked with water and salsa. We kindly told the manager that the remainder of our food was ruined. It wasnt until this point that he offered to give us soup to go. Surprise, surprise ... there is no chicken in my soup! Im never coming back to this restaurant. Maybe they need to hire a manager that knows how to do his job. Also, maybe the "chicken tortilla soup" should be labeled as veggie soup.

Wow, appalled by the service we received here. We asked our waiter 4 times what kind of tequila was in the top shelf Margarita and he was unable to answer our question, he just kept telling us it was tequila. Eventually he went to get someone else (manager?) who was still unable to tell us what kind of tequila was in the top shelf Margarita, although this person understood the question at least. Finally I just said enough and ordered a Negro Modelo. As soon as I did I was IDd and our new server held my ID and stared at it for a solid 2 minutes before turning to me and saying "Its no good, this is expired." I kindly pointed out that my ID was not expired and showed him where the expiration date was located which took a bit of explaining on my part. After this everyone was IDd including my 67 year old father, I felt that this was a petty retaliation on the servers part as my father is clearly over 50. Then I ordered fajitas. When they got there most of the onions were undercooked and the portion of meat I got was pretty meager. 4 slices each of chicken and beef and a small slice of tomato which looked inedible. This was definitely the least amount of effort Ive ever seen put into fajitas, while the meat wasnt bland it looked (and tasted) like everything but the meat was an afterthought. To be completely fair the décor was excellent and the atmosphere was warm although I didnt get a chance to see the patio. Its a great looking place, they just need to get the restaurant part right.

The only Mexican restaurant that is actually pretty good. With only eating just small Mexican restaurants near my area and Lupes Tortilla before this place. I had accidentally lead my family to the wrong place and ate in the restaurant before heading towards the correct way, our moods completely changed when we had ate the 4-Person plate with Shrimp, Bacon, Stake, and with similar plates for each person plus ice cream and some Mexican bread deserts which looks BIG compared to similar plates at similar restaurants wait times as a bit long but its reasonable due to how great almost all the food taste. This is definitely a good place to go on the way for a road trip or if you are nearby with a group or family, the place is pretty underrated which needs to have more notice but there is a lot good restaurants competing and will definitely come back sooner rather than later. Plus to the people who are complain about the noice and music during the night, this is a Mexican Restaurant and you cant really change that.

Where do I start...my sangria margarita tasted nothing like a margarita. My queso Blanco was nothing but plain melted velvetta...I had to ask for some pico de gallo to help doctor it up. Then my dinner came, carnitas...dry and tasteless. With a smidge of guac. Also had to doctor them up to try and add some taste to them. The only thing somewhat good was the shrimp nachos my husband ordered. Lots of extra shrimp. This place over all...is a joke! Never coming here again. Blagh!

We used to go often. However, the last 4 times we had crappy service. The food was cold. My husbands food came out wrong. Never could find the server except when my husband stepped out to have a smoke while we waited for over 20 minutes for our check and the waiter flipped out and started yelling at him even though I was still at the table still waiting for the check. The only person who smiled was the the chip girl. Still doubting going back to this location.

I will NEVER come here for dinner again. They had a mariachi band playing so loud I had to go stand outside with my 4 month old baby. If I wanted to be around really loud music, I would go to a concert. Without my baby. I had to tell the waiter to have the band move away from my table so it wasnt so loud and I was given a look like it was rude that I was asking that. Aside from it being loud and hurting my ears, I couldnt even have a normal conversation.

The food is good but I went here with my family and for some reason, the hostess passed up about 5 empty tables and seated us so far away from everyone else in the place that we were darn near seated outside on the patio. Very strange because the place was really not super busy that evening so it was no reason to put us at an isolated table that was completely away from all the other customers in the place.

I must say I was rather disappointed. I ordered the combination enchilada plate and the first bite said it all. I was not the only person in my party that was disappointed and we ordered different meals. I came here because an associate had great things to say but usually when a place is over-hyped, those are the ones you have to watch out for. I wont be coming back or referring anyone to this place.

OMG!! I just tried the breakfast buffet they have on Sunday mornings and I was amazed. SO. MUCH. FOOD! They have pretty much everything you could want in a Mexican food breakfast plus some. There is something for everyone and it was only $12.95 plus tax for an adult buffet. If I could name everything I would. Just know to come hungry and its definitely worth waking up early for.
