Not the best Mexican food … it was ok though. We had to order vegetarian and got a veggie quasi. Veggies were fresh but tasted bland . Ok for a quick bite though. Couldn’t taste anything else . They have a good seating inside for dine in . Parking facilities are good . Service was good too..

First time trying out this restaurant and I will never return. Chicken, pork, and steak tacos are all the same price on the menu. I asked the waitress if I could mix them she said yes. When the bill came, they charged me extra. I asked her why, she said because I mixed the tacos, but never once mentioned that when I asked her about mixing. I suggested next time she let the customer know in advance that there’s an extra charge. She shrugged her shoulder as to say whatever. Instead of taking it as learning opportunity she was rude. Tip was included in the bill which I wasn’t happy about either. The waitress got lucky because I sure wasn’t tipping her with that nasty attitude. Bad first impression. The food was oily and only edible at best, watered down tamarind drink. This was just an overall bad experience. They can keep their tacos!! I won’t be returning.

Had a very disappointing experience. The food is very overpriced- they add a 4% fee if you pay with a card (prices on menu are cash prices). The food was mediocre and definitely not worth the price. I expected better because so many people order from here. My fajitas didn’t come with any cheese, sour cream or guacamole- only white rice, meat and beans. My burrito had white rice, meat, beans, lettuce, tomatoes- no cheese! Never had a burrito without cheese! The food taste like something I could have made myself. And to top it off later that night we had the worse indigestion! First and last time ordering from here, unfortunately!

DON’T ORDER FROM HERE. We ordered a TORTA de MILANESA (to-go) and that is what was served to us.

I ordered the chicken and beef empanadas and I must say the beef was stale and tasted like old oil I cant get it out of my mouth. The chicken I could not even eat. It tasted like old freezer like it was in the back shelf for a year. I would not order from this place as when we asked them to fix it they said just leave a review and they don’t really care. Just hope this helps others not make the same mistake I did.

I love the food here. The el pastor tacos are spectacular. I really love any place where you can get horchata. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I live only a mile from this place and I started going there when they first opened. The food was always generally quite good. The ambiance needed a lot of work. Well, they’ve improved the inside in a sort of California/TexMex kind of way. The outside is a giant mess of a disaster that needs serious attending to. In fact, it looks from the outside like you should never set for inside. All this is just the look and feel of the place. As for the food now, I can’t tell you. On our most recent visit, we sat at a table for fifteen minutes and NO ONE came to talk to us. Of the two or three people coming in the kitchen not a single person came out to offer us anything. There were two tables of locals already there, some of whom had food. But it was like we walked into a private party where we clearly didn’t belong. I will definitely not be going back there without some serious changes. Too bad, they were good.
