I am a very polite, nice person. I love mexican food and trying different restaurants. I do not drive and I take public transportation to get me around. One afternoon, I had to go to the bathroom very bad. On this particular nice, sunny day I walked in this restaurant assuming since its a big restaurant and no one was in there eating. I asked if I could use the bathroom. The girl working behind the counter told me with confidence that I needed to buy something first. Shockingly, I turned around and I was forced to leave. After this experience I will never buy anything in there. I was treated rude and I felt like they did not care about me as a human being at all. I will have take another route on the bus to find another mexican restaurant that will treat me kindly with manners. It seemed these women just wanted my money. To add, while I was walking out of the restaurant she told me to, “have a nice day.” In a sarcastic, rude way. I won’t be able to taste there food and I sure do not feel comfortable ever going in there again. I believe the staff workers should be polite well with the food. So I won’t be back in there ever.

Wow terrible service and the price is ridiculous for what you get. These tacos should cost less than $2.00. It’s the cheap taco meat with no seasoning. Charge 2.20 for a small bag of carrots. Paid $60 for 9 tacos small rice and 3 sodas. Definitely hustling white people.

I ordered chilaquiles Verdes. They were ok. I did not like that they put the eggs with the chilaquiles. You can hardly taste the green salsa. The stake does not come with the meal, I asked for it. It was pretty good. The tamarindo water was exelent. The price was a little high.

I’m upset that I even have to give 1 star. The prices are ridiculous. Gold coast fine dining prices for Medicore food and small portions. 9 dollars for a quarter cup of guacamole with 10 chips and 22 for 3 little enchiladas and the food was not that good. 70 dollars for 2 dinners and 1 appetizer!! I don’t mind paying for a decent dinner but where do they get off. I was disgusted. Save your money for a better meal and avoid this place at all cost!!
