I paid 18.00 for this plate we had order three chili relleno dinners the worst portions and plate appearance I’ve ever seen in my life and expected me to pay for this which I did I will never be back here. Kept having to ask for refill on my drink and more chips and salsa. As you can see the plate says it all. Yes the food was ok. Not delicious or omg I want to come back kind. Came here in March of 2023

This food is so good, I’ve had the birria tacos here twice, and it’s been fantastic. It happens to be my girlfriend favorite Mexican food here in town, so that’s a great thing for me also. The tortilla chips are home made and oh so damn tasty. If you’re down town and looking for a good restaurant go here, just try it, you’ll understand why it’s so good.

I went last year and it took 10 minutes to get drinks. It was an extremely hot day and they didn’t have AC, just a fan. Twenty minutes later, not one employee was around. We went again a few days ago, they had an amazing band that always brings people in no matter where they play. It got packed However, everybody was complaining about the service. Most people got up and left. Only a quarter of the customers stayed. They were serving drinks with very little alcohol and orders were wrong.

Came here for my birthday in February, on a Saturday. We were looking for somewhere to eat and we drove by and they had music outside and a couple of people dancing. We stopped here and surprisingly it was very peaceful inside and the staff was so nice and kept checking in on us. The food was very good as well!
