★★★★★ 5.0 James Patrick · Jul 2024

Great experience all the way around. The restaurant was clean, well lit, and easily accessible. The waitress was very attentive, patient and very courteous. The chips, salsa, and queso was fresh and delicious. Our meals arrived fresh and hot. Was very pleased with everything. Made a return trip today and the restaurant was still great! Great service, nice atmosphere and the food was delicious.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Jeran Cox · Aug 2025

Perfectly fine Tex Mex. The free salsa was better than most. The service was honestly pretty slow and distracted. Beans were awesome. Cheese sauce on my enchiladas was queso blanco that tasted like melted American or maybe velvita. Meh. Good enough, but nothing outstanding. Prices were very reasonable. $15/person

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Patiko · Jul 2021

The service is great, unfortunately the place is too small for large groups. First of all, we had to wait to be seated and also waited more than 20 minutes to get food. My husband and I both ordered two beef fajitas, his fajitas were good but mine were almost burnt with a bitter taste. After complaining, the waitress brought me a much better one. One friend got the wrong order too.The chips and salsa were good, but not the queso. I suggest don't come during the busy hours.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Chelsea Linden · Jan 2026

I mean the service was…. Well decent. But for being a so called “Authentic Mexican” restaurant… yeah not so much. The food wasn’t that great to be honest. Lack of flavor and yes I will complain about the type of cheese they put on my Quessabirria because it wasn’t the right cheese.
