First time, was busy and short staff. Our server did his best considering. Had a table of 2 girls who got into a heated argument with who I thought was a server come to find out he was a manger. Got so heated that customer threw a glass and police was called. Manager was very unprofessional he could have defused the problem but he was egging the customer on he walked away 3 times and back to say some nasty things to customers one outburst he made was her mother should have taken a plan B. And he dared her to throw a glass when she ask him to get out her face so she threw the glass on the ground and glass flew. Again understand customer are not always right . But this manager needs to be retrained for sure. Food was good service needs work. Will try again just not anytime soon.

One of the best drink menus I've seen in some time. Dry ice in the Margs--PARTY TIME!! Forgot to get the recipe for the "Blue Motherf@#$er" on my way out. One of my life's biggest regrets.Great chips, salsa. Chimichanga platter was as good as any I've had.Churro with fried ice cream desert you better plan ahead to make room for.Excellent service: friendly, professional, fast.

Please is amazing. Never had anything bad from there. Price isn't insanely cheap but you get what you pay for in quality of food. Staff is also super nice. Jose is a great guy who always treats us well, cracks jokes and makes us feel welcomed. Half the reason we keep coming back is for him. Keep it up guys ??

Food was average, it was a bit pricey. Atmosphere was spacious. Everything was clean appearing. Some of the seats at booth were a little worn or had tape covering holes. Service was a little to be desired.

Visiting from out of town, we decided to try some Mexican Food, and this place looked promising.The salsa and chips were amazing!! Chips tasted homemade, the salsa I could almost eat by itself with a spoon.The entrees were a little on the pricey side, but the portion size definitely justifies that. Enchiladas with green sauce = dee-ricious ???Now the service: Inspired by a great line from Dave Chappell, "I wish I had four thumbs, so I could give that service four thumbs down" ?????????We were promised great service from the beginning, which didn't help, because in 1.5 hours, our waiter came to our table a grand total of 3 times... Had to bug other waiters for things ours should have handled. Since party was 7 people, there was a default gratuity added to the check, so maybe he just assumed we wouldn't tip. #KanyeShrug.Don't know that we'd return here if we make it back, but for anyone looking, def worth a shot-amazing, authentic tasting Mexican food! Just come with lowered expectations on the service.Kid-friendliness: No kids menus/crayons. Is only a small section on the main big menu.
