    We typically come here and have a fine experience, but this time we were trying to leave and couldn’t find our waiter for about 30 mins. We finally were able to flag down a different waiter who also couldn’t find him so he just brought our check and we were on our way. The end of the meal really soured our experience, so we probably will not be back.

    Shredded beef taco so fresh and delicious. I'm not sure what the dark salsa is but it is addictive especially with the light crispy homemade chips. And the queso blanco served in a little pot is Devine!! Oh and the super large margaritas delish!

    Had a wonderful meal. Food was flavorful and presentation was very good. Wait staff was friendly and we were not rushed even though it was quite busy. Frozen mango margarita was great. We had the combo meal of chicken enchiladas and ground beef chimichanga. Came with rice, beans, and sour cream, guacamole and pico de gala. Everything was delicious.

    It was our first time eating here and probably the last. It’s not that is was horrible but the food was bland,the drinks were mediocre(blueberry margarita and lemonade), the wood table top was sticky..it seemed like it wasn’t clean.The taco salad had no lettuce but a bunch of onions and barely any of the ranch sauce, and the chicken on it was bland.The grilled oysters,the half crispy chicken, and chips and salsa was tasty. It has potential but…

    Fantastic enchiladas. Very good and very interesting. One of the best margaritas I've had in a long time. Really liked the flan too! Service was excellent. At one point, my wife had to step out to talk to a family member. Our waiter noticed that she was cold outside and stopped by our table and took her coat out to her. How nice is that?
