Fast friendly service with good food at a fair price.

Good place for a nice Mexican fission food. Not a very authentic Mexican but a decent one in America.

This is literally my go to place to eat out when I want food that will never disappoint. The free chips and salsa is perfect. The queso even better! I usually always get the Grilled California Burrito (get it with avacado ranch on the side!!) The staff is always so attentive and nice! Perfect date night place! Also, PLEASE do yourself a favor and get the CARAMEL CHURROS!! They are the best thing to have ever graced my tastebuds. 10/10

Appears to be closed. I was calling to make a reservation and the phone service is cut off. If you go to open table the app is not available, and it suggests you call the restaurant for resos. Very poor notification

Location appears to be closed. Sign was removed recently and there is no answer when calling two days in a row.

First, we were seated next to the bathrooms even though we went in on a Tuesday afternoon with 1/2 of the restaurant empty. Service was fine but both of us ordered steak and all of it was chewy and fat. Don't know if we just got unlucky, but will not be going back to find out.

This used to be my fave Tex-Mex restaurant. We ate here for lunch and dinner. Recently, it feels like portions have been getting smaller. The good: +We've always had good service in the several times we have been here. +Chips are delish. I can eat a ton of these. The bad: -Small portions. We recently tried their bowls. For the prices below, we could have gotten a bigger portion in Chipotle at a cheaper price. $11.29 - Grilled Chicken $11.29 - Grilled Portobello $12.79 - Grilled Shrimp $12.79 - Grilled Steak The verdict: -Most likely not coming back here again.

Went with a large group, and we all enjoyed spicy salsa with chips. The chicken tacos that I ordered had very little chicken with a lot of lettuce. They were not worth the ten dollars that they cost. Service was great considering that we were a large group. Mixed reviews from the others at our table.

Been here twice with my Fiance and we absolutely love it. The food is amazing! Our bartender, Johnny, has been our bartender both times and he is absolutely fantastic. So personable and attentive. Totally recommend this place!

Great margaritas and fajitas!! I wish the place was busier. Makes me nervous. Our server was cute too.

Food was good, service was good. My only complaint about this place is the tile on the wall that butts up to the table needs to be cleaned, badly! It was really grossing me out- heavily food stained and very sticky & greasy.

A quaint Mexican themed bar & restaurant. I ordered the grilled fish tacos and they were small (just my size) and good! Would recommend you try it.

It was my first and only visit to this restaurant. The decor was unique and the inside was so spacious with big windows making the enterior bright. What impressed me most was the hostess and how involved she was with the dining area. She helped the wait staff all over the place while seating customers. It kept the customer service moving.

We sat at the bar and shared a meal and it was very good. Food came out fast and the bartender with a man bun was awesome. Very personable and made it fun. Will go back next time were in town.

Past its prime and on life support like a dying man. Manager was tentative and doing about 5 jobs while still finding time to check up at our table several times. I just wish she was in the kitchen more. Food was not good or cooked properly and location is beat up and run down UPDATE don't eat here both wife and I have the toilet angry at us. This place would be lucky to make it to the end of the year.
