I am pretty floored about the amount of bad reviews of this place. Did I just catch it on a good…read moreday? I was actually apprehensive to coming here because of all the reviews on here and Google. The only reason I did, is because it was within walking distance, and I couldn't get an Uber to the sports bar in town. They don't have Uber's or taxis here. But I'm glad I came in and ate. Yes it is true, they could do a little bit more cleaning. All in all it wasn't too bad. I do think they should hire a commercial cleaning service though. I sat at the bar, and I was going to try to eat normal, but not today. So I asked them if they could make me a jalapeno margarita, and they did! My server, pulled another server from the back room to make it for me. They don't normally offer them. So that was a nice gesture and started my visit off right. Typical Mexican restaurant decorum, playing Mexican music. I did find it peculiar that they were playing infomercials on all of the TVs hahaha! During the duration of my visit, a lot of local families we're frequenting this establishment, so it can't be all that bad like everyone says. My server was super nice, attentive, checked on me regularly, and was even conversational. A couple other people that work there also acknowledged me which was nice. I ordered the Mojarra (fried Tilapia) a la Diabla. Before my main dish came out, my rice and beans and avocado salad on served to me on a super hot plate. Asked for a bottle of tapatio, and it was go time. My main course came out shortly after. Man all of my food was straight from the stove / oven to my face. Hot, steaming, fresh. I had plenty of shrimp on top of my tilapia, and the sauce was really good. I make that style of fish at home, so I might try making "a la diabla" at home next time. They also have truck parking, for us that keep America moving. I gambled between the two places I wanted to go to today, and since I couldn't make it to the latter, I made it here, so I consider it a win. I'm never in this area, but if I am, I know where I'll be parking and eating next time. I included the entire menu, because from what I understand it's been updated. Oh, I forgot to tell you what I paid for everything. I had a 32 oz custom margarita, two vodka and sodas, plus my food, and my bill was just over $42. I've spent twice as much at other places across the country, for half of what I got today. Just give it a shot. ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

I do like the fish tank and the servers are nice and quick but the cooks don't wash their hands and they are very rude and childish cooks.

He honestly gives me creepy vibes and wouldn't want to spend money there. No hate toward the severs but only the cooks and managers that run this place.
