Service isn't what it used to be and its pick and choose what servers are good at their job. Drinks are a shot amount to a tumbler and your triple the price. Ex. Beer once was $1.50 now its $3.50. Food isn't any better either.

Change in management/ownership has resulted in a definite decline in food quality and quality of service. 2nd time eating here months apart since change and wasn't good either time.

The food was a very sorry excuse for food period!! It was so nasty the chicken was burnt in the burrito and the rice was even nasty . Won't be going back any time soon. Taco bell is better.

I gave it two stars because the staff was really nice but the food was horrible. I had a fajita salad my friend had a taco salad He was sick all night and this morning after eating there. My fajita salad I ordered steak and the steak was just gross! It was like it wasn't even cooked but it was really brown and chewy it was just horrible. I've eaten there many times before and the food is always been decent. But if you're going to spend 75 bucks on food and drinks you think you might get a little buzz... But we couldn't even taste any tequila in the margaritas. The whole meal was really disappointing but the staff like I said, was very nice and attentive.

Really friendly staff and management. I believe that the big boss of the restaurant in person came at my table even to great me and shake my hand. Food was delicious, and they had one of the best and super big chicken fajitas I ever had in a Mexican restaurant. Definitely recommend the place.

This place has gotten better then last year. We went here Sunday to eat outside on such a nice day. The staff there were amazing and the service was fast and accurate and there were smiles all around. The food was amazing, maybe a new cook? We got 3 different dishes all great. The drinks were great. I recommended giving them another try.

My advice, go there not hungry. By time you get your food youโ€™ll be hungry. Went there with our two kids, they sat us down with our menus and that was it. Gave us waters and chips and salsa. Then thirty minutes went by with us not even putting in an order. They walked by us a dozen times. We literally finished all the chips and salsa and downed all our waters. Now weโ€™re at home making our own tacos:) saved us about 50 bucks by avoiding us! Let me give u a better description, Not ONE word was said to us by any staff there. We got up and left.

The worst services ever, I was there last weekend and the bring the chips and the came to ask what we want to drink 20 minutes later, they donโ€™t even put water on the table, but itโ€™s ok, we were waiting for like 40 minutes de food and when they bring the food they forgot to bring the fork and knife and after 10 minutes they came but just with a little fork, the worst service Iโ€™ll never visit that place, and the lettuce in the food was old ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿ‘Ž

This is absolutely the best Mexican restaurant I've ever experienced. I always take my son there when he comes down from Seattle. Not only is the food great, but you get so much food for the money. Excellent service, and I've never been disappointed. Kudos to the entire staff!

I will not return. I got my first drink after 20 min and telling server to delete my order. He apologised profusely and bought me my drink. Ok, we are human - your forgiven. It was over 30 - 40 min before i seen him again. Ok. Now my 2nd drink has heen empty for well over half an hour, and ive never been offered a menu. Im hungry, thirsty and irratated. Lunch rush, which was not slammed, is gone. Its dead in here for quite a while and im spending a chunk gambling. Im leaving and ill spend my money where i can get some service. Nice guy, but the worst service ever. You cant have a nearly empty bar and both people in it are hungry and thirsty. The lady next to me is in a wheelchair ffs. She wont let me wait on her, and he wont. Awful awful awful.
