This restaurant left a lot to be desired.

The restaurant was cold as if the heat wasn't on which was disappointing being a cold December day. We each ordered different items and while some of my party was pleased with their burrito bowls, I ordered the enchiladas which came out twenty minutes after everyone else's food and was cold as ice (the cheese inside wasn't even close to melted). I won't be returning to this restaurant.

First, this is in the country, so there is plenty of parking. We were there at about noon, and the place wasn't crowded at all. The waiter was pleasant and helpful. I ordered a Mexican Salad which was excellent. My wife ordered a Chili Relleno which was excellent as well. The others in our party ordered Fajitas and the Vegetarian Burrito which were both excellent. The complimentary chips were abundant and served warm. The restrooms were clean. The music was Mexican, and not too loud (thanks for that!). The drinks were served promptly and correctly.

Went here for a team dinner while in MS for work…read more It's a small Mexican/Honduran restaurant with colorful decor, pretty good parking, and decent hours. The service was ok, and the staff were friendly, but it was definitely not amazing and was quite slow. I had to ask 3 different people to bring me the sour cream that I ordered as well as lemons, and the tomatillo sauce that was given (it's in refillable bottles) was empty so I had to ask for another after they walked away. Now to the food. I got the supreme enchiladas order which comes with 1 chicken, 1 beef, 1 cheese, and 1 bean enchilada with lettuce, guacamole, tomatoes, and cheese on top. The enchiladas were small, and the ingredients fresh, but the flavor was extremely bland, which was surprising for a Mexican restaurant. I mean, I could have had a more flavorful meal at Taco Bell. I ordered rice and refried beans on the side, and while the rice was decent, but nothing to write home about, the beans tasted metallic or artificial like it had been just scooped out of a can; it was not edible. TLDR: I'm giving 2 stars because the people were friendly and were trying hard, and the prices were really cheap (like $11 for my meal without the extras) but the food is just bland, even if the ingredients are fresh.

The food was good and definitely did its job (no one left hungry or grumpy). Now, let's talk about the salsa. It wasn't bad... but it felt like it was holding back, like it had big dreams of greatness and just needed a little more spice to reach its full potential. The place is very small but the ambiance is very inviting.

I was greeted enthusiastically by a gentlemen and brought to a table. My other server was pretty much indifferent. He never came to check on me and even bringing me my entree, just dropped it off and never asked me if I needed anything or anything. I went with the chile Verde. It was okay. Good, but nothing great. Maybe it was an off night being a Sunday evening and my server was just not feeling it tonight. This is my second time in Columbus, Mississippi for business and the second Mexican restaurant I ate at in the area. The other restaurant was a better choice, but I am still glad that I came here (despite the service being poor). I guess overall I will give it three stars.
