    Just ok. 6/10. Certainly not an authentic Mexican restaurant. Food wise anyway and food was just ok. Salsa dip served with tortilla chips had no flavor. I've had much better fajita skillets. Fish tacos were decent but not a fan of them being made with Cole slaw. Interior could use a bit of a make over so just an ok atmosphere. With all that said, the service was really good. But not sure if id go back!

    We had a great evening at Quintanas - we shared the appetizer platter amongst four of us and it was plenty to hold us over until our delicious mains arrived. The Mexican flag was delicious and my companions enjoyed the burritos. Large servings and reasonable prices. We’ll be back again soon!

    I normally have the Mexican Flag or Flautas with the Poquitas appetizer and enjoyed both…This time I had the assorted Mexican Platter for an appetizer and the Taco Salad Bowl…both the latter were in need of attention as they were not up to the Quintanas normal quality at all…I’ll stick with my tried and true my next visit…
