The medium margarita on the rocks was exactly what you'd expect from a standard house margarita. It…read morewas balanced enough, but ultimately forgettable--pleasant, yet lacking anything distinctive or memorable. The combo appetizer was largely disappointing and difficult to justify for the price. The chicken quesadilla was bland and desperately needed seasoning. The fritters were even more underwhelming, tasting primarily of fryer oil with no texture, depth, or discernible flavor. The lone bright spot was the chorizo-stuffed jalapeños, which were flavorful, well-prepared, and easily the best item on the appetizer platter. The accompanying chipotle ranch was also excellent and complemented them nicely. The salsa, however, completely stole the show. It's still my favorite salsa anywhere in the Columbus area by a wide margin. The complimentary chips arrived warm and fresh, an often-overlooked detail that made an immediate positive impression. The guacamole had a smooth, fresh texture but was noticeably under-seasoned and needed more salt. The portion size was also disappointingly small considering the price. The combination plate featuring the chile poblano and steak chimichanga was the evening's biggest letdown. The refried beans tasted as though they had been scooped straight from a can, while the rice was one of the few successes of the meal--well-seasoned, perfectly cooked, and fluffy. The chile poblano was shockingly small, easily the smallest I've ever been served, and lacked any real character. The ground beef filling was bland, resulting in little more than a soft, flavorless mound. The steak chimichanga was equally disappointing in both size and execution. It was so small it looked more appropriate for a children's menu. While the steak itself was tender, it lacked seasoning and was excessively greasy. I found myself repeatedly pouring salsa over nearly every bite just to introduce some flavor to the plate. The Plato Loco continued the trend of undersized portions. Once again, the rice was cooked beautifully, and the meat itself was tender, but the overall dish was remarkably bland. Nearly all of the flavor came from the cheese sauce rather than the ingredients themselves. On a positive note, the extra tortillas arrived piping hot, fresh, and delicious. Unfortunately, the service mirrored the kitchen's inconsistency. Our server was largely absent throughout the meal. Drinks sat empty multiple times, our basket of chips often remained without salsa, and we repeatedly had to flag him down for refills and basic table service. This restaurant was once my favorite Mexican restaurant in Columbus, which makes this visit especially disappointing. Whether the focus has shifted to the newer Phoenix City location or something else has changed behind the scenes, the difference is impossible to ignore. The generous portions that once set this restaurant apart have shrunk dramatically, and the bold flavors that kept us coming back have largely disappeared. Aside from the outstanding salsa and a few isolated highlights, this meal felt uninspired and poorly executed. It was a disappointing experience that leaves me questioning whether I'll be returning anytime soon.

Upon arriving at the establishment, parking was easy, decent sized parking lot which is more than a lot of places can be expected of.

This establishment was extremely welcome towards the military, and therefore each member had a free beverage of choice. Each member got at least 2x entree items which came out within 15 minutes of seating. The food came out with the heat of a bursting volcano straight from the kitchen to our hands. 10/10 recommend. Honorable mention; the trashcan are plentiful wt each corner of the establishment. Their estimated capacity is about 20 white to-go trays.

This is coming from a born and bred Texas girl, and a spent-quite-some-time-in-Texas-guy (honorary Texan). We were also given an extra tamale (thank you)! We got chorizo & potato, chicken, and cheesesteak. So. Darn. Good. The maíze was so delish and fresh. We were too excited to eat so sadly don't have photos! They staff are so incredibly friendly :) Super super delicious, their salsas are SO delicious. Definitely super fresh, we had a handful of different arrangements of salsas. If you're not one to handle spice as well but still like flavor and a taaaad bit of kick, definitely get the tomatillo verde! The salsa fresca was my personal favorite, with the el sriracho (spiciest one) being a close second (they gave us one to try and it was so yum). Definitely not too spicy (but we can handle our spice), packed with a ton of flavor. Can't go wrong! It's really cute, nice that it sits in the little center with other options. Definitely come by :)

Loud…read moremusic blasts while a shrill alarm or tone cuts through the air, making it genuinely difficult to place an order without raising your voice. The menu itself is handwritten in a dense, cluttered scrawl across a weathered whiteboard, which feels less professional than it could. A simple tablet or digital ordering system would be a welcome upgrade over competing with the noise. The strawberry lemonade arrives pure and bright in flavor, yet it is so heavily iced that you effectively receive only about a third of actual drink in a large cup. The horchata suffers the same ice overload, but the drink itself is excellent--creamy, traditional, and balanced with that classic sweet-cinnamon richness that should please just about anyone. The birria ramen arrives in a generous portion. The broth is robust and flavorful, loaded with substantial chunks of meat and a solid serving of noodles. The downside is the texture: the noodles had gone a bit soft and mushy. With several meat options unavailable, I opted for the asada California burrito. The steak was moist and well-seasoned, the cilantro present but not overwhelming, and the first bite delivered a satisfying cheese pull. Overall the flavors were nicely balanced. A quick finish on the griddle to seal the tortilla and add a light crisp would elevate it further. It came with a side of salty, well-spiced chips that were genuinely tasty. The birria tacos with rice presented a clearer split. The rice had an off-putting, slightly metallic or "dirty cookware" note that was hard to place, though the grains themselves were cooked to a good texture with solid bite and chew. The tacos fared better: the outer shells were properly crunchy, the meat portion was decent and well-cooked, and the seasoning offered a mild, balanced profile--nothing overpowering, yet nothing that particularly stood out either. These are not the double-tortilla, cheese-filled style; cheese is minimal and sits inside. The consommé was thinner than hoped, but once the salsa was added and a touch of fresh cilantro scattered on top, the whole thing brightened considerably and gained a welcome lift of freshness. The esquite was creamy and pleasantly zingy, with a solid flavor balance. A higher corn-to-sauce ratio would improve it, but the taste itself was enjoyable. In short, the stronger dishes show real potential--particularly the horchata, the seasoned asada, and the elevated birria tacos once sauced--but inconsistent execution, an overly noisy ordering environment, and a few off notes (especially the rice) keep the experience from feeling fully polished.
