★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Crystal Vasquez · Sep 2023

Terrible experience! Walked in to super loud music had to yell to get someone’s attention since no one was up front to greet us! They don’t have everything stated on menu! Went there to get some Mole Poblano & was told by waitress they didn’t have any. Asked for a pineapple Jarritos didn’t have that either. We finally got some drinks they did have & waitress comes out with chips & salsa, chips where stale & cold. So we asked for fresh chips with Guacamole was told that’s all the chips they had. Guacamole looks like pico de galló was just throwing on top & my properly prepared! We get 2 entrees of 3 chicken tacos with rice & refried beans. Rice looked & tasted old & just warmed up & placed on plate, beans tasted burnt & I also found a piece of hair in my beans. Tacos were ok not the best. O

This place is horrible not only did they get me and my coworkers order wrong their meat was overcooked and burnt their rice looks stale and they gave a super small portion. The lady who I spoke to over the phone is very rude and didn’t care I definitely will not be ordering from this place ever again even if I was starving I rather starve then waste money on this garbage then her logic is that there is people who are homeless/starving that would eat it. But I’m not homeless I didn’t pay $20 bucks for this garbage I will be requesting a refund from door dash and never ordering from this place ever again!!!!!

this slum of a resturant has a lady answering the phone who tells me “no “when I start politely ordering then says “no english” rudely and just hangs up the freaking phone. what is wrong with you people? not all spanish people speak spanish better yet people wanting to dine here in general. DO NOT DINE HERE.

Great vibe. Food fresh and delicious. I ordered the shrimp fajita , everything grilled to perfection. Rice soft. Refried beans good. Came with salad. I ordered guacamole and they made it fresh on the spot, absolutely deliciously satisfying. They sell variety of mexican beer.. A must try..
