One of the better cheap taco places in the area. Taco Tuesdays are a great value. Margaritas were pretty good as well. This is not a fancy restaurant. Just pretty good Mexican

I never in my life tasted food with no taste, very blend, the grilled chicken was hard and dry! Even the salsa had no taste! The fries were very good

The last couple of times that I ordered steak tacos, they were very bland and lacking flavor. We had to use quite a bit of sauce on them. I feel like they used to be better.
