When the kids and grandkids come craving Mexican, This is where I take them. The place is clean. No sticky menus or table tops. Wait staff are friendly and attentive.

Since I like to tinker in the kitchen. I also like to tinker at restaurants, when I can. (my wife refers to my "tinkering" as playing with my food) Mexican restaurants provide a fertile ground to tinker. I prefer refried beans to rice, so I typically order no rice and extra beans. Then I order a small queso. The queso here is very thin, too thin really cor chips. I use the queso and complimentary salsa to add an extra layer of decadence to an already good meal. I digress.

I always appreciate kind people in hospitality. It's a tough job. Especially if the place is empty. As far as the food: Salsa was sweet we aren't used to that but perhaps that's a thing. Chips were okay. Beans were sweet! Some said they tasted like the flavor baked beans. Unusual taste. Tacos were okay but plain. Corn tortillas were steamed and not grilled or anything to give them extra flavor and texture. Other dish was Habaneros Mango Chicken it was extra sweet and reminded us of Asian food. Not bad per se but didn't finish as it was too sweet. Both dishes were chicken and we had pork in our food too. Something to be aware of in case of religious avoidance or allergies.

It's obvious the owners are looking for profit on ask the wrong ways to open their second location. They use to have a vast selection of hot sauces and now there is 6 different bottles with 3 being empty sitting sad above the salsa bar.. That's probably not a bad thing as the hot sauces are now off such a poor quality that they are what you would expect out of a dollar tree clearance rack. The salsas are still good but given the quantity of chips in my to go order you won't have anything to dip in them. I had 6 chips.... 6... Why bother if that's all your giving as that's just enough to make you mad. Well that left room for a big burrito right? Nope. This thing was taco bell sized. Easily30-40% smaller than chipotle or diablos. Surely there is quality ingredients right? The chicken in the burrito was dry dry dry over cooked. No big chunks just little hard over cooked over charred pebbles.. match that with either rice that was under cooked or under the heat lamp too long.. Least there wasnt a lot of the filling as the ratio of tortilla was so high that's all you really tasted and ate anyway .. You can't raise prices and make the product smaller and less quality all at the same time. Its well worth driving farther to Diablos or two businesses over to Chipotle.
