This was our first time in here! I will never be back! It was horrible! We got yelled at and they told us that we were not getting our food. We had some questions and we wasn’t allowed to ask questions we just had to hurry up and order our food.

We came in for lunch while on a road trip. Great atmosphere, super nice and courteous staff. The food was absolutely delicious and we received our entrées in what must be record time. I highly recommend eating here. I will definitely return whenever I'm in Bloomington.

I went there for the first time and I ordered a lunch Arroz Con Pollo. I left and the following day, I noticed a 26 dollar charge meaning the server added his own tip even though I left a tip and crossed out the tip line!

We have always liked eating there. Still like the food. BUT beware! Pay with cash! We had two regular tacos and a kids meal. We left a cash tip on the table and paid with a debit card. I crossed out the tip line and wrote the amount of our meal on the “total” line. Our server added an additional tip to our debit card. When I caught the additional tip, my husband talked to the manager. His explanation was, “yeah, they do that.” Not to us anymore!

The service was good, the fajitas are amazing. I don't think there is a good Mexican place in Bloomington, but if you wanted Mexican, this would be a good place to go.

The employees here is very rude and prejudiced. I stood at the waiting area to get my order taken. When I walked in there was a lady employee that was standing at the checkout counter which is where the waiting area is . The employee told me a waiter will be with me soon and walked off. I waited for an additional 3-5 minutes and the employee was just standing in the back area looking at me as if I was invisible I never seen the lady again a young light skin(white) guy walked in and that’s when a man walked up and said to the younger get for here or to go and walk the guy to a both. That was the end and I took videos of them look at this I can not make this up

Food and service were both excellent. The mango margarita was also fantastic. There is nothing particularly unique that sets this apart from other Mexican restaurants, however it is consistently good across the board.
