I was surprised that it was not fried like I've seen so many times, but in a nice soft tortilla with a cheese sauce on top. I ordered the rice and beans as a side and for some reason, they weren't my favorite, but hubby liked them! He ordered the lunch beef burrito and commented on how fresh it was. Next time in I would love to try some of the seafood dishes! Glad we stopped and gave them a try on our travels through Columbia.

I ordered the steak quesadilla with a side of beans and rice ! Everything came out perfect. The quesadilla was so juicy and flavorful and perfectly complemented with the beans and rice.

The music set a great vibe, and I even heard occasional singing, which added to the warm, inviting atmosphere. Can't wait to come back, highly recommended!

Our waiter was very professional and friendly, and our food was delivered within minutes of ordering. Every one of our meals were delicious, and the servings were BIG! Prices seemed lower than typical Mexican restaurants too. Also, our drinks and chips were never empty. As we walked out, the bus boys looked up and wished us a good evening.

It looks new, dark and inviting, with clean tables and good decorations. Looks like a great place to step into for ice cold beer when it's 100 degrees outside. Service was friendly as well, and they were playing some kind of Hispanic easy-listening instead of the usual "Mexican polka." The salsas were also very good--neither was over-cumin'd, and neither tasted like marinara, which happens sometimes with cheap canned house salsas. I had the Arroz con Pollo, which was hot, fresh, and properly cooked. But there was one problem, and it was a significant one--skimpy chicken. Usually you get either a whole chicken breast (or at least half of one) with this dish. I had MAYBE 3oz. of protein. They serve their arroz con pollo with chopped veggies to pump up the volume of the dish--most times arroz con pollo is just that--chicken on top of rice, usually with queso on top. We all know meat is expensive right now, and the way this dish is prepared makes it pretty obvious they're trying to save here. Maybe some of the other dishes are different? A great place, but next time I'd have to either pay for extra chicken, or a protein shake afterwards.

The manager was helping during the rush and does a great job. Clean, tasty food, good service. Just north of exit 203 there is plenty of parking even for motor homes.

The Good: The staff was extremely friendly. And the prices were competitive…read more The Bad: The food was only so-so. Not remotely Mexican. Taqueria sure, but not Mexican. The cooks did what they could with what they had but it still just was ok at best and not worth the price. The Ugly: The place was devoid of drinks. According to one of the staff they had not gotten their soda order in. But, they also had NONE of their bar drinks or mixer drinks. You can see that the picture has all of it clean and not used in the middle of the lunch day. They also were out of various ingredients to make some of the dishes. While this is occasionally the fault of just not knowing what you need by the manager that does the ordering... it is normally a bigger problem and one that points to a place that is financially failing. I hope that I am wrong and that they were just having an off day. The other reviews seem to point toward a fairly good restaurant so hopefully someday I'll be able to adjust this review.

The menu on the wall looked like it had been there for a while and may or may not be up to date. Staff seemed like they didn't care if you were there or not. The only drinks they had available was fountain water or a handful of bottled drinks in the fridge. They have a soda fountain but said that had not gotten their delivery. None of the drink mix machines had anything in them either. I ordered the Nachos with Carnitas, Chips were on the well done size and had some white melted cheese poured over them and the meat, that was it. No other toppings, flavors were alright.

The service was friendly but they seemed pretty understaffed, even though the place was pretty much empty in-between lunch and dinner rushes. The Arroz con Pollo wasn't bad, but not that great, either. The chicken had that day-old, leftover chicken taste--pretty sure it was probably not cooked to order, but I was hungry so I ate it. Rice was fine. Their spicy salsa upon request was really good, however. Ambiance wasn't that great, most all of the booths, chairs etc. looked second hand and had lots of rips, tears, and wear. Bathroom was pretty run down, as well. I would probably try one of the other places next time.

The last time I ordered, they put a hard shell item in the same container with an enchilada and the shell was soggy as was the lettuce. The item should be in its own container so the lettuce stays crisp and the sour cream doesn't melt and get warm. Service is below average. Not being from area, I've never experienced a business that doesn't present you with your pick up order, but rather they assume you will go to a booth and "pick a bag" after paying. I stood at counter the first time I ordered from there and the gal pointed to a booth across from the counter where there were bags of food sitting on seats and on table. It's the most unprofessional and non-customer service behavior for a restaurant to have and not appealing in the least. They should get your food order and hand it to you. After my most recent call to place yet another order after consistently being a customer despite the poor quality of food and service, they quoted me yet another out of the sky price for my same food order. I said never mind and I've never ordered from them again. They lost my business.
