Good place restaurant, quality aligned with the general prices. Staff is helpful and is taking care. Room temperature was excessively cold and might require some xtra cloth.

Just wanted a taco salad for lunch break. It says it comes with beef. Shell came out 1/2 full and less than a tablespoon beef. (Pulled it out) Returned that politely and it came back with full lettuce but somehow LESS meat.

I think it may have been what I ordered, but the food was just okay. I ordered the El Gran Papi. I went back the next day and ordered the Mexican crab dip and Caramel Swirl Cheesecake which was delicious

The waitress was the best part of this meal. The hostess took awhile to seat us. The food was mediocre. Texas Mexican food is so much better that this.

Stopped here on a solo date. I was greeted by a friendly waitress who provided exceptional service. The place was clean and the food was delicious. I had a frozen margarita that was well prepared to my liking.

This location has really started to go downhill for me after COVID. It always appears to be understaffed. Atmosphere: Tables are not bused, and used dishes are just sitting on tables. Service and Food: Most times, food takes forever to hit your table. (This time, service and food was good)
