I've eaten a lot of Mexican food and this tasted like it was made with care and fresh ingredients. Our party of four included a 5 year old; the server was patient and he checked on us a number of times. I don't always have time to write reviews while on vacation, but when I noticed the low-star reviews it made me want to express the great experience and food I had. It must be so hard to own a restaurant in the day of social media where people mostly write when they're grumpy. I hope more people will share their positive experiences here too.

visited la cabaña del tequila looking forward to enjoying a…read moregood Mexican meal with my son after a long day of traveling. Unfortunately, the experience ended before we even had a chance to order. The host, a man who appeared to be in his 30s, greeted us without any welcome or friendliness. He simply pointed us to the two tables near the entrance and told us the restroom was upstairs. Since the restaurant was completely empty, with no customers and very few cars in the parking lot, I politely asked if we could choose a different table. His response was that we could not because he decided where customers sat. The way this was communicated felt dismissive and unwelcoming. As a fellow Mexican, I was especially disappointed by the interaction. I had come hoping to enjoy authentic Mexican hospitality, but instead I left feeling unwelcome. My son even asked me why the gentleman had behaved that way, and I felt it was better for us to leave than begin our meal with that experience. Restaurants in a tourist destination have an opportunity to make visitors feel welcome and appreciated. Good food is important, but genuine hospitality is what people remember. I sincerely hope management takes customer service seriously, because a warm greeting and respectful treatment can make all the difference. Unfortunately, based on this experience, we chose to dine elsewhere.

We moved to Nevada 2 years ago. Today we were traveling through the area and were so excited to be able to eat there again. Walked through the door and right off the bat noticed how dirty the dining area was. We seated ourselves. Waitress brought chips and salsa. This is part of my issue. The chips were small broken pieces. I could have complained but it was at the beginning of the meal and if you complain you never know what will happen to your meal in the kitchen. On a positive note the refried beans were the best I've ever had. My husband had the fajita burrito and said it was delicious.

This review is specifically about the hostess/front desk attendant…read more When I arrived, there was no one at the host stand. I stood in the entryway waiting to be acknowledged and eventually had to look around the corner to find someone. The hostess finally noticed me, but she appeared more interested in her phone than assisting customers. Meanwhile, an employee making tortillas clearly saw me waiting but never alerted anyone or offered assistance. I eventually found a menu to place a takeout order, but the hostess disappeared again, leaving me waiting at the front for another 10 minutes. During that time, I repeatedly made eye contact with staff, yet no one offered help or even acknowledged that I was waiting. After looking around the corner a second time, I found the hostess once again focused on her phone. To make matters worse, the restaurant phone appeared to be off the hook, making it impossible for customers to call. After waiting far longer than I should have without any assistance, I finally left. Based on this experience, it certainly felt like they had no interest in serving customers.

Also, they will immediately include gratuity for even small parties.
