    It was a mid week dinner time. The place was almost empty. No detectable tequila in the margaritas. Food appeared to be heated up pre-made frozen food. No taste and lukewarm. Service poor and slow but likely not the servers fault. I wouldn’t go back. We wanted to like it but so much is missing.

    This is a nice local restaurant run by college students. I don’t think I saw anyone over 20 working. They all seemed very overwhelmed as it was busy with a few big groups. That being said, the food was very good and our server was very nice. Just seemed a little chaotic and made us feel for the wait staff.

    The hostess could not find our reservation and would not seat us, so we had to make a second reservation for a table. This was very confusing since the restaurant was half empty.

    Our server was wonderful and the manager came over to ask how everything was, which was great. The tacos were very good. The only things I had an issue with were the very sticky menus and sticky table, and the outside ground area where we sat seemed a bit dirty and shabby.

    Food was really good. Servings were generous and we all had a great lunch. The chips, salsa and guac were really good. Next time I want to try the ceviche

    The lighting was way too bright... The overhead spot lights were like being in police interrogation. Our server was able to adjust the lights (eventually). Server was great. Table side Guac was super fresh but a bit bland. The seasoned beef in both entrees was very flavorful. Rice and refried beans portions were extremely small... Happy hour prices for beverages was appreciated. Bathrooms large and clean, thank you. Over all good experience and we recommend

    The service was excellent and the food plentiful. We shared an order of guacamole, soup and nachos. More tasty food than 2 people could finish

    The restaurant is nice and clean inside. Service was friendly and prompt. The food was just slightly better than average for a Mexican restaurant.
