Been eating here for a while and used to love it, but the quality has drastically fallen. The meal I just had there tonight was awful. The fajita beef inside of my chimichanga was tasteless and had the consistency of boiled, not charred, meat. The refried beans were pale and bland, and even the chili con queso lacked flavor. They skimped on the onions and peppers for the cheese dip, and I barely got any sour cream or guacamole at all with my plate, maybe a scant teaspoon of each. The fried flour shell on the chimi was soggy. My companions cheese enchiladas were small and tasted no better than what he could have bought out of the freezer case at the grocery store for $1.99. I was ticked off and frankly just paid the bill with my CC after a cursory glance, then the waiter caught me as I was leaving and said he had brought me the wrong check. The difference I owed, however, was less than their minimum CC charge, so I had to root though my purse for cash. Embarrassing and maddening. I will NEVER go back.

Terrible Service, they waitresses didnt want to wait on us and the other waitresses eye balling head to toe when asked if we could have more complimentary chips and salsa. Went for a celebration and had 2nd class service! When ordered fried shrimp and told they were out, 10 minutes later someone else at another table received fried shrimp after they served our dinners. Our ticket was seperated and it took 3 times for them to correct it when it was time for the check. They shouled invest in a more professional wait staff. will not be taking our service there again, first impression was horrible, had they not had terrible service the gratitude would have been complemented greatly, instead the gratitude was not appreciated or complemented.

I have frequented the Woodlands location for many years, after visiting here. I can only conclude that they operate completely separate from each other. The fajitas are very sad. It was a bad combination of over cooked and gas taste on top of a bland piece of meat. The salsas seem to be from a jar. The beans left a lot to be desired. The only similarity was the tortillas, which were good. I would rehab this location or remove the name. If I would have tried this location first, I would have never given the other a chance, and thats a sad thing to think about.

Stopped in here because I saw it was happy hour. The margarita was cheap and tasted just the same. The green salsa tasted bland as cardboard and the red was obviously old. It was cold and its main ingredient consisted is salt. I ordered shrimp enchiladas that had 5 tiny shrimp in three of them. Not each, all together. My wife had the chicken soup which was so watered down it should have been free. Wont be back.

That is the worse food I have ever tried. This is worse than Tex-Mex food. We have had true Mexican food and this place attempted to remake something they have never cooked before. The drinks were horrable as well, way to much Margarita mix, very little Alcohol. This will be the first and last time Me and My Wife eat at this salty no flavor having place. If i could have given a ZERO, I would have done so.

Came here for the first time and expected real mexican food...boy was i WRONG! The food was nasty. Fajita is boiled then throwed on a skillet for a few seconds. Everything else was gross. Made ourselves eat it cause we didnt want to waste it. I will never be back. Spent about $30 on nasty food. If i could give it no star i will!

Food was ok, definitely not the best Mexican Ive ever had. Our waiter was constantly turning around talking to other customers or employees while we tried to talk to him. This was on a night where there were maybe 6 other tables and 2 other waiters. I would hate to see what their service is like when theyre busy.

Just looking for a place for some drink and found this place and its really nice inside and very clean! The people are very nice attentive. Chips and salsas are yum even though the red salsa had to many seeds. We got the fajitas nachos, queso dip and guacamole. EVERYTHING WAS YUMMY!!!! WE WILL BE BK!

I wish I could rate no star!!! Tried this place once before a few months ago & was unimpressed. Ordered the Patron Perfect Margarita....needless to say it was more like a house margarita. Tasted like ice & watered down tequila. I mean who serves a Margarita in a 16oz. pint glass???

Its Valentines Day and I brought my wife and son, and we had excellent service. I enjoyed the Valentines Day special that my wife and I shared. The Margarita was great. Overall it was very good. I really liked that we didnt have to wait long for the food. Staff was great.

I have been here more times then I can remember, maybe 1000 times, I dont know. They have always had excellent service , except for on Cinco de Mayo, but thats only because they were packed. I love this place you should definitely try it, just not on Cinco de Mayo...

If this is "Mexican Food" I must be from somewhere else. The food was not appetizing. The salsa was better if I bought at HEB. Gave it 2 stars only for atmosphere. Will not eat here again. How can enchiladas be messed up and salty. SMH cause i am a confused Mexicano.

The steak fajita here taste like pre cook bags you buy at sams club. The guac was runny and taste like lime than anything else.the chips taste stale. The only thing good here was the chesse and the restaurant you can smoke in here not cool.

My goodness.., some of the saddest fajitas Ive ever had in my life. No flavor whatsoever. Clearly this meat was frozen prior to cooking. No salt, no pepper, rubbery and dry. Almost a fake texture. Horrible. Never again.
