I've been dining at RL for many years, we have grown to love the staff and owners as family. Today…read morewe came in and tried a new menu item, the Pambazo. I am serious to say this was one of the most delicious meals I have had, after dining in multitudes of restaraunts across this nation and others. This small, family owned business really knows their way around the kitchen! The staff is always welcoming, they have our drinks pouring before we are even seated. The place is always filled with laughter, music, and good sports playing on multiple tv's. They have an event room for special occasions that you can rent. We have even had them cater for an outside event and they thought of everything. Some of my favorite meals are the grilled avacados, brisket enchiladas, Jesse's special, barrocho bean soup, and of course the new Pambazo. I do believe I have had everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. They make a great margarita and mojito. Don't hold back when you are there, the staff are super friendly, as well as the owners. They certainly enjoy the patrons to share their experiences, to make it better every day. ​​

Ok, it had been a few years since I've eaten here. I was reading the reviews and thought I'd give…read morethis place another shot. My family and I went here on a Sunday just before noon. The crowd wasn't bad, and we were seated quickly. The chips, salsa, and drinks were delivered promptly. The salsa seemed like a new recipe, and was pretty good. I want to say the chip game was on point, at a table of 6 our chips were never empty. We ordered a queso and that was good too. The staff was accommodating when our kids made special requests and that was appreciated. The rest of us ordered something involving brisket and all left stuffed and happy. Food was authentic and delicious. We ended up getting the same waitress from my first visit and she was attentive and friendly. There was also a gentleman probably in his 40s overseeing the dining operations, he ran a tight ship, and was most likely the reason everything was prompt. The place even seemed a bit lighter and the atmosphere was a little more family friendly. Oh I also had a margarita after reading the reviews. It was perfect in my opinion. A family of 6 ate until we burst and it was all still under $120.00. That's a win in our book. This place is back in the rotation, if things change, I'll post an update.

The only thing we wouldn't get again is the ribs. They were tender and falling off the bone, but tasted like my mom's pot roast. So I wouldn't spend that money again. The service was fast and pleasant. They send out the trays when they are ready and you keep the buzzer until you have everything. The kids loved playing at the outside connect 4, gianand corn hole. Will have to come back and check out the live music. Bill was about $135 pre-tip and, aside from the ribs, I'd order it all again.

I ended up ordering take out, I got a veggie bowl with their literal perfect queso. The chips are also so thin and crispy but not too thin. I got Mexican rice, queso, sour cream, onion, peppers, corn, cilantro and their habanero sauce on the side.

Our waitress was outstanding as she took care of us. I am not so sure if there were more, but she was handling quite a bit of tables. She gave us samples of each of the sauces and even the boom boom one. Please note it is a dollar extra for the sauce. I ended up ordering the taco salad. It is not your typical that you see however as there is not taco bowl, but a substitute for the strips. They use fresh vegetables and nothing looked expired. In fact it looked just like the photo on the menu. We got a lot of chips and salsa and our waitress asked if we wanted chips to go and we thought she was going to give us a box to put the chips, but nope it ended up being a bag. Beef was not dry and quite juicy. Our waitress was so good that I tipped her 30% for doing over and beyond.

I'm not sure if it was just a bad day to come here or what, but the fact that it was so busy did not match the experience that we had. Although the drinks we got were ok, the tajin rim on my cucumber margarita was barely existent. It was maybe a few flecks of tajin. Then when our food came out, the rice looked completely bland. Jasmine rice with zero flavor is certainly an interesting choice for a Mexican food restaurant. We ordered queso and it just tasted like melted down velveeta with some tomatoes in it. By the time the queso came out, we were out of chips. Instead of bringing us more, we had to ask our server several times for some. Felt out of the ordinary for a restaurant as typically they'll just bring you more chips? The tomatillo sauce was very good on the enchilada, but that was about the most flavor of the entire night. I don't know that I would recommend this place to anyone... just drive 1 minute up the road to Manny's! To top it off, the whole vibe of the place feels weird. Extremely upscale on the outside, but as soon as you walk in it's just odd. Additionally, two enchilada plates and queso with two margaritas came out to $80. This was extremely expensive for the quality of food that we received.
