Our son graduated college, and for the open house party my wonderful wife had a great idea - San Jose fajitas!! With help from Mike at the front desk and Manager Viktor, we soon had an order. Our visitors all loved the: - fresh chips and salsa - beef fajitas - four and gluten-free (gf) corn tortillas - rice and refried beans (frijoles) And after the party we have been blessed with leftovers! Thank you Viktor, Mike and the entire San Jose team!!

The food was good and plenty full…read more The male waiter seated us, took our order and quickly served our food. We were impressed. This is a fairly generic Mexican restaurant, but it is inviting. The place is a little run down for the area, but there was many families eating here. The only complaint was the large and hard chips served for free. (I can not lower the rating for free chips) The vegetarian combo was all tasty. I felt like taking a nap afterwards because it was so much food. I was an immediate fan.

Great bar with bar seating and nice tables and a wonderful outside patio. The dining area accommodates most parties comfort on to 8. The food is good. Good quality ingredients and safe for standard Mexican fare. The seafood entrees are a little bland. Our favorites - all of the fajitas, tamales and queso fandidto. . To be fair we don't try everything on the menu and probably should. They have an extensive selection of delicious entrees and salads. I would put this on your list as a regular Mexican places to visit, especially with families.

This location has the frozen margaritas! I loved these. The strawberry-and-mango combination, with…read morethe strawberry syrup poured over, was worth the trip. The alcohol's taste was nicely balanced, and the fruit flavors were sweet. I ordered the Enchiladas Yolandas. The shredded chicken was tender and flavored nicely. The beef taco ordered on the side was a bit bland and needed some extra sauce added to it. Service was quick and the staff was friendly and accommodating. This wasn't my favorite location I have visited, other locations lean more authentic rather than Tex-Mex.

To start, the ambience is fun and the staff is very welcoming. The chips are fresh and warm, salsa…read moreis great, and queso is spot on. There is a wide variety of margarita options, but what stands out is that they don't have that overpowering sugary mix flavor that so many house margaritas have. There is a large menu with a wide variety. Highly recommend the pork and pineapple tacos! The only downside is the inevitable wait times, but it seems to calm down after around 7:30pm. We waited around 40 minutes, but it was well worth it! This is my new go-to Mexican in St. Louis county!

Definitely not as authentic as I was expecting. Cocktails were of the high sugar, vat style. Probably best to go and just have a tequila, chips and salsa with friends bookending going somewhere else for food. Didn't notice the recent ownership change which might account for some of this. Fun experiment but lots of other places to go. But it was really cheap. Actually if I was back to being a broke college student I'd probably give it a higher review. But given the number of only slightly pricier places in a 10 min drive that are properly 4.5+ stars I think this place might need a bit of a refresh.
