Food could use a little more flavor (seasoning) and if the server would check in with you more than 3 times the whole visit that would be great. Other than that it was really good.

I stood in front of them for ten minutes, trying to order food, but they ignored me. Two ladies were also in front of me—one was at a register inputting items, and the other rang up a guest, then delivered soda to a table. Despite being in front of both guests and waiting patiently, I eventually walked out. It didn't make sense to support a business that wouldn't allow me to place an order.

I really love the breakfast options here. My favorite item is probably the Breakfast Taco! Delicious, full of flavor and filling.

It’s an older restaurant and building that could use some serious updating, which I understand is easier said than done, but the food quality was excellent and so was the service although it was obvious our server was spread very thin. The lunch specials, at just $5.99-$6.99 are a DEAL, with over 12 combo specials. I had the normally hard to find but very traditional “Mole” with pork and J-Lo had steak fajitas quesadillas, both were delicious. We also ordered an order of guacamole, it was substantial and chunky with great flavor. The exterior with bars on the front door-windows might make you think twice, but the authentic, flavorful mexican selection is worth trying.

I love to support local businesses, but....This place used to be better. The food isn't great, the prices went up, the service was non-existent, and the restaurant seemed dirty. We shouldn't have stayed, but we were starved and gave them a chance. It's our last visit.

Food was cold and no flavor. Extra chips and salsa is an extra charge, the original basket of chips is very small. We do not recommend. Way over priced! Stay

Chips are good...service good. Beef and bean burritos, for starters, have a slice of tasteless American cheese on top, beef and beans lack flavor. Quesadillas have the same cheese, as mentioned above. Margaritas are overly sweet with not much tequila.

I love this place, best flautas I've had in a long time! Salsa was great, not too spicy. Server was very nice and attentive!

The food was plenty . Very good . ( maybe more options to spice it up) a little tame for me . More salsa options not just hot sauce . Very quick for 9 people . We will go
