I was with my vegan friend and his dog so we chose to sit outside on the patio and they were very accommodating. I had the Tacos Alhambre (Corn tortillas, steak, bacon, chorizo, pineapple, and shredded cheese) and rice. I asked for no green pepper and no beans. The rice was kind of dry but I loved the tacos. Very flavorful. Chips and salsa were good. My vegan friend was thrilled with the vegetable fajitas. Friendly service. We'll be back!

Both were served in 10 mins hot and cooked to perfection. Portion size was generous and drinks were refilled at just the right time. We ordered dessert since I had a big day and hadn't eaten. So we ordered the sopapilla. Smaller portion on dessert but it was great. Delicious ice cream and the pastry was just tender enough. Overall a perfect visit.

The meal included choice of rice and beans--I chose white rice and black beans. The menu is extensive with many appetizers, quesadillas, steaks, enchiladas, combination plates, and kid's meals. Then there are the House Specials! Desserts include fried ice cream, sopapillas, and churros. Pepsi products and Jarritos, no alcohol. Prices are very good, and Mary's service was perfect. Restroom was very clean. I hope this restaurant gets enough attention so the people of St Clair (and passersby like us) do not lose out!

We decided to try out Santa Fe Mexican Grill tonight. We tried to order lemons with our drinks…read more(water and tea) but were told that they do not have lemons. We had four children in our party and are accustomed to Mexican restaurants providing a beverage with children's menu purchases. This was not the case here. No complimentary beverage for kiddos. Chips and salsa were not brought to our table until after we had ordered, and even then we were provided with only three small bowls of salsa for our party of nine. Another thing we are accustomed to at Mexican restaurants is bottomless chips and salsa... however, when we asked for more salsa we were told that it was customary to give three salsas per party and extra salsas were an extra charge. We asked for spicy salsa, and a tiny cup was provided for $2.99. The meal prices were fair, but the serving sizes were small. We were the only people in the restaurant so service was quick. The restaurant was clean and comfortable. The salsas had good spice and were enjoyed by all... we only wish they were bottomless.

No smoking which was a huge plus considering that our search for dinner (while driving), came up with a lot of places that still allowed smoking inside. I have to compliment them on their brewed tea. So many times, a restaurant will say fresh brewed and they just serve freshly made instant. That is not the same! This was authentic and freshly made. Hubby ordered the Fireman's Fish and I had the cheesy chicken sandwich. We also tried the spiral chips based on the server's recommendation. Everything was great and that basket of chips was pretty addicting and definitely worth ordering. Definitely worth a stop!
