Our waiter was very professional and friendly, and our food was delivered within minutes of ordering. Every one of our meals were delicious, and the servings were BIG! Prices seemed lower than typical Mexican restaurants too. Also, our drinks and chips were never empty. As we walked out, the bus boys looked up and wished us a good evening. If I could have given this place 6 stars, I would have!

The last time I ordered, they put a hard shell item in the same container with an enchilada and the shell was soggy as was the lettuce. The item should be in its own container so the lettuce stays crisp and the sour cream doesn't melt and get warm. Service is below average. Not being from area, I've never experienced a business that doesn't present you with your pick up order, but rather they assume you will go to a booth and "pick a bag" after paying. I stood at counter the first time I ordered from there and the gal pointed to a booth across from the counter where there were bags of food sitting on seats and on table. It's the most unprofessional and non-customer service behavior for a restaurant to have and not appealing in the least. They should get your food order and hand it to you. After my most recent call to place yet another order after consistently being a customer despite the poor quality of food and service, they quoted me yet another out of the sky price for my same food order. I said never mind and I've never ordered from them again. They lost my business.

The service was friendly but they seemed pretty understaffed, even though the place was pretty much empty in-between lunch and dinner rushes. The Arroz con Pollo wasn't bad, but not that great, either. The chicken had that day-old, leftover chicken taste--pretty sure it was probably not cooked to order, but I was hungry so I ate it. Rice was fine. Their spicy salsa upon request was really good, however. Ambiance wasn't that great, most all of the booths, chairs etc. looked second hand and had lots of rips, tears, and wear. Bathroom was pretty run down, as well. I would probably try one of the other places next time.

We ordered street tacos, enchiladas, and a chile relleno. The food literally came in 2 minutes from the time we ordered. Our server almost apologized for how early he delivered the food. This is when I should not have ignored the major red flag that went off in my head! How do you make enchiladas and rellenos in 2 minutes when you have to bake them for like 15 minutes to cook them properly?! Were we lucky and we go an order someone had already put in and then cancelled? Did they somehow magically know what we wanted before we arrived and looked at the menu? No, it turns out they did *not* even bake the rellenos or chile rellenos! They assembled them like the street tacos and decided to serve them to us and hoped we wouldn't notice! Because we were so hungry and the non-confrontational type, my girlfriend and I just sat there and ate it. She ate the dry rolled corn tortillas and I ate the runny relleno. The street tacos were properly made but the grilled chicken on one and beef on another were dry. The carnitas was decent though had chunks entirely of fat. Clearly something was up in the kitchen when we ate there. A new chef that didn't know how to cook standard Mexican dishes? I think rather something more nefarious was going on and they were in a rush and decided to pull one over us. And we let them do it without speaking up. I feel ashamed that I did not ask our server to immediately bring back to the kitchen and find out what was going on! I really hope this establishment gets their act together and serves food with integrity! Shame on you!!

The Good: The staff was extremely friendly. And the prices were competitive…read more The Bad: The food was only so-so. Not remotely Mexican. Taqueria sure, but not Mexican. The cooks did what they could with what they had but it still just was ok at best and not worth the price. The Ugly: The place was devoid of drinks. According to one of the staff they had not gotten their soda order in. But, they also had NONE of their bar drinks or mixer drinks. You can see that the picture has all of it clean and not used in the middle of the lunch day. They also were out of various ingredients to make some of the dishes. While this is occasionally the fault of just not knowing what you need by the manager that does the ordering... it is normally a bigger problem and one that points to a place that is financially failing. I hope that I am wrong and that they were just having an off day. The other reviews seem to point toward a fairly good restaurant so hopefully someday I'll be able to adjust this review.
