    Carnitas tostada
    Mike E.

    I can't handle complainers who may have simply ordered the wrong thing for them. These small businesses are full of hard working people who are trying to make it on their own. I love their carnitas tostadas. A tostada needs to be eaten in the restaurant to maintain crunch. Their's is delicious.

    Neat and clean, but .....

    I've always enjoyed eating at new places, especially when it comes to tacos. When I entered the establishment, I was greeted right away, but with very little excitement. Not as the second customer that came in after me. Of course, it was his bday and he seemed to be family. Here is the thing. If we all learn to treat everyone with the same energy, it makes everything worth going there. Secondly, it could be someone else's birthday, but no way to know that right? That's why treating everyone with a good level of energy, and a smile makes everyone feel welcome. And yes it was my bday also. The place is very near and clean. They had good music, and it was nice. The waitress took my order, and that's where I was a little shocked. She was polite, but I ordered four tacos, and a Pepsi in a can. Nothing was really offered and I saw they had fountain drinks after. So, four tacos. Small tortillas, asada, and one Pepsi in a can. $17.00 plus dollars. Wow! I get the inflation times we are in. I know that the prices for meat, have gone up. I know that the overhead cost may have gone up also, but four small tacos with a Pepsi can should not be $17.00. That's as much as a carne asada plate. That's at least 5 to 6 ounces of steak, a spoon or two of rice, it often comes with beans, a small side of veggies like lettuce, tomatoes, onions, avocado, and more often than not, sour cream. How does 8 small tortillas, with a small portion of carne asada, and green salsa compare to that in cost? Not even in labor. How can families of four or six fit in pictures such as these if they live paycheck to paycheck? How did the tacos taste? I've had better for a third of the cost, at a restaurant (current time), but they are not bad. Cut the oil back that drips out of them as you eat them, and it would be a bit better. Take some of the fat out and replace it with meat, and it will be a better quality taco. The price, I know it is only my personal opinion, but the math does not math-up. This seems to happen more often now because people have become slightly careless, and greed is everywhere in today's world. The last statement is not directed to this restaurant at all, but it is in relation with the food industry everywhere in our present day. Do I recommend them? Yes, of course. I am only grading one dish. Not the entire menu.

    My daughter enjoys their chicken taquitos....very expensive $12 for 4. I told she needs to find a more reasonable priced place.

    This was an interesting experience. I found this place on Yelp and decided to check it out during…read moremy son's lunch break from his tournament. The rest of the team heard we were going here, so they decided to join us. When we walked in, the restaurant was busy, and I honestly didn't think they would have enough space for all of us. Luckily, they did! They also knew we had to get back for the next game, and our server was really helpful getting all of our orders started quickly. The reason I say this was an interesting experience is because the service was good, but our server would also disappear for long periods of time and forget to bring things we asked for. I'm not sure if she was the only server and there were only 2 bussers for the whole restaurant, but she would leave and not come back for 10-20 minutes. The food was pretty good! I had the Pescado Relleno, and I have never had anything like it. It also came in a REALLY weird package. Instead of putting the fish in a bowl, since it had so much broth, they put it in a makeshift foil bowl. Maybe that is how they cooked it, but it was definitely not user-friendly. As soon as I touched it, the broth started coming out all over my rice, salad, and table. I had to ask multiple times for a bowl, I hate the sensation of my fork hitting foil, and I definitely didn't want to accidentally eat little pieces of foil. My husband had the Burrito Supreme with carnitas, and it was really good. He finished the whole thing! Both my kids had the quesadillas, which they completely DESTROYED. They also brought us chips with salsa and beans, which were delicious and also destroyed by the whole hungry baseball team we brought with us. Overall, the experience was great, and we were really happy we found this place so close to Mistlin Field. They understood the baseball tournament life, got us fed, had great food, and got us back to the game in time!

The staff was pleasant and welcoming from the start. They immediately brought out a mix of corn and flour tortilla chips along with medium red salsa and refried beans. Everything tasted great. I especially love flour tortilla chips, so that was a nice touch. I ordered the Steak à la Mexicana for $18.75, which was not part of the lunch menu. The carne asada was tender and cooked with green peppers and onions in a very flavorful sauce that had just the right amount of spice. It was supposed to be served with rice, beans, and tortillas, but I didn't receive the rice or tortillas. The refried beans were topped with cheese and had a good flavor. The food came out piping hot, including the plate, which was very hot to the touch. The portion was also plenty big enough that I had leftovers for dinner. Service was very attentive. The staff checked on me several times, offered more chips, and kept my water refilled. There is plenty of seating inside, a couple of TVs near the bar, bar seating, and a good selection of tequilas. They also have several different Mexican bottled sodas to choose from. Overall, a great lunch with good food and friendly, attentive service. I enjoyed the flour chips so much that I ended up taking an order of flour chips and salsa home with me.

The restaurant was extremely clean, my pickup order was ready and waiting when I arrived, and the entire process was quick and easy. What really stood out to me, though, was the staff. Everyone was genuinely kind, welcoming, and went out of their way to make sure I had a great experience. It was one of those small interactions that leaves you walking out thinking, "I definitely want to support this place again." Great food is important, but customer service like this is what makes people come back. I really appreciated how I was treated and wanted to make sure the staff got the recognition they deserve. 10/10 experience.

Only to open everything and the "avocado" salsa that we asked for was beyond spoiled thick & gummy. Disgusting. It made everybody audibly gag right when opening it they clearly don't use any real avocados... radishes and lemons were so old yellow the radishes were spoiled and squishy. Asked for a side of chips and paid $4.50 We didn't mind in the moment but in the end none of the food was worth it. Steak was super fatty. Clearly didn't clean it. Rice & beans were mid. Had stopped here about a year ago and remembered enjoying it don't know what happened but they need major help. Customer service and quality has seriously declined.
