    The ambiance is great, it's a bit dark inside the restaurant but not in a terrible way. Service was not the best, slow and mostly saw my server sitting at the bar relaxing instead of being on top of his tables verifying everyone is good and assisted. The worst part was the sticker left on the peppers on the fajita plate. Pictures for reference are attached. When notified they removed but not apologetic. Just in shock that this even happened. Don't you wash your vegetables? Don't you verify your plates before sending them to the tables? The only good thing about this restaurant were the margaritas and nothing else. They need to step up their customer service and most importantly how they manage their food.

    It took forever to get seated, and then they waited on the people that got sat after us before coming to us. They did not tell us about the drink special until they brought us the smaller margarita that visited more than the big one on special. The tequila sunrise taste like straight orange juice; the margarita is a cheap premade mix, and the chips are double-fried & stale. The fish tacos are fishy and skimpy (ounce or less of fish)~we sent them back. They never came back to check on us. The beans were the only decent thing. The rice was flavorless and undercooked. They never came back to check on us, dropped off the check, never returned or told us to pay at the register, and never said hello, thank you, or have a good day. I was a server for years and have NEVER left a place without tipping until now! Don't waste your time or money!! I got better food at the gas station (WAWA).

    A typical Mexican restaurant. We were seated right away in a booth. The salsa was very good but the chips mediocre. I had the veggie fajitas which included broccoli, a nice addition. I also had a margarita on the rocks and it was good. The service was not that great hence the three stars. The waiter did not bring water, we had to ask, and also forgot lime for our drinks. A smile would have been nice as well. He seemed just a tad unhappy to be there. Overall an okay experience but we'd honestly probably try somewhere else if in town again.

    It's worse than before. Nasty guacamole dip, cheese dip and quesadillas with cheese that hasn't been fully melted, and unmasked servers during the height of the pandemic. The rest of the food? Bland an uninspired. It's obvious that Chef Mike (the microwave) is working overtime in the kitchen. The service and decor are still fine, but everything related to food and the outrageous prices makes for a horrendous experience.

    Service and food was great. The only problem was parking. But if you are willing to hunt for spot it's worth the hunt.

    I love this new-to-me location of a Cville classic. Food is great, service is on point, and the margaritas are A+

    We were looking for a nice restaurant that was reasonably priced while visiting from out of town. Food was good and service was great.

    While I don't think it's the most authentic Mexican, the food they serve is delicious, well portioned and pretty inexpensive.

    AMBIANCE We rolled in on a late evening hoping to feed our…read moreMexican cravings and stay toasty. Gives the rave review of how underrated this spot was, we decided to give it a go. It's a small spot on the side of High Street that's probably easily missed. Gratefully had parking spots right outside and when we walked it, we were immediately greeted. We took a few minutes to scan the large menu on the board and the more comprehensive one on the counter. We ordered the quesadillas, fajitas, and pixie and were cautioned that that would be an enormous portion (very much appreciated the honesty on that one and was true). We ordered it anyway since that's what we were craving! It's a small spot with 3 booths and a few smaller table areas. SERVICE Quick service spot where you order at the counter, find seating, and 10 minutes or so later your food is made in the kitchen and can be picked up at the pick-up counter a few steps away. We picked up our quesadillas and fajitas from the counter, and our pozole with pork was brought over to us with tortillas, cilantro, and onions. FOOD Absolutely delicious and so worth the value! The quesadillas were chunky with chicken and pozole was hearty and well spiced. Loved every bite of the pork, cilantro, and hominy!!! Can't find this in a lot of spots and so glad they do it here. The beef fajitas were also well done with a solid portion of sautéed vegetables and 3-4 tortillas! OVERALL Absolutely agree that this spot is underrated and a gem....quick, no frills unassuming spot with friendly staff that never disappoints. Would 11/10 recommend if you want Mexican food. We've already got this spot pinned for Mexican in C'ville favorites and are looking forward to going for our third time to try out more options.

    Went to the new location and I have to say, I was really disappointed. The new place is GREAT…read more But the food was average at best. I ordered a pork tamale. It was flavorful but it was hard and the pork seemed old and dry. Maybe it was recycled or maybe they microwaved it to death. But I could not finish it. It was authentic but it was not what you would want to serve. I debated taking it back to the counter. I ordered two tacos. They are usually great. Today, nope. The Cabrito was okay today and the carnitas a little fatty. But the most disappointing thing is that they were not hot. Maybe they died in the window, but dead they were when they hit my table. The only thing saving the experience was the tostada...and the homemade tortillas on the tacos. All fresh. Even the signature sauce stand was different. The sauces today seemed very runny compared to how they usually present. I did get a fountain Pepsi and it was perfect. Overall, love the new spot and the decor. I will go back because i live their food. Assuming today was just an off day.

    guys they were wonderful i'm not sure what the other reviews said but it was MAGNIFIQUE!…read more the food was so buss down delicious. i am not hispanic but we had 4 hispanic diners approve.

    It's hard for me to grade this on a proper scale…read more First the great. The restaurant is truly stunning and you tell a lot of thought went into every little detail of the place. It has an extreme upscale Mexican feel which for me is new. Truly stunning pieces of decoration. The drinks are creative and the "vessels" they're served in are truly unique. I saw one table that got shot delivered in an airplane. The service here was good. Not incredibly great. The man who helped us was attentive and tried his best to serve us. But felt like there was quite a bit of pressure on him to get the orders right. And things that would seem simple became more complex. I feel as though the menu should help guide the customer a bit more on how to place orders. For example margaritas are listed but doesn't tell you that you need to select size, rocks, slush, rim type, and fruit selection. It was just overall confusing and could be felt by our waiter. The food is good. On par with much of its competitors in the area. It tastes fresh and feels like they have a bevy of quality options. The largest glaring problem with this restaurant is the price point. Unbelievably expensive. It has the price point of high end establishment but the quality just does not match what you get. It almost feels like they had to jack up the prices to cover the costs of the decor in this place. I would go again but quite honestly I don't know if I'd be willing to pay that price twice. Go at your own discretion.
