They offer two types of Queso, white and yellow, which adds even more variety to the already impressive menu. The atmosphere is bright and cheerful, with "south of the border" decor. If you are a sweet tea drinker, the tea here is a must! It is the best I have been served in any restaurant. The service is friendly, but two times out of my three visits, I only saw our server three times: wplacing the order, serving the order, and delivering the check. I observed to see if perhaps they were understaffed, and that was not the case. So, for the first time in my life, I left $0.00 for a tip (and felt horrible about it afterwards). This is why the fifth star is missing! I did report this to management, and they were attentive and appropriately apologetic. I believe that they will correct the issue. I highly recommend this establishment.

Brenda L was the server who took my order. Per their suggestion I ordered the birria tacos which came with rice, beans, toppings and then a side of chips and salsa. The tacos were okay. I think coming from Texas I'm just used to food being more seasoned, but the meat was tender and the portions were generous. Now usually at a taco joint either the green or red salsa will be on the milder, less spicy side but here ?? If you like heat then you're in for a treat because oh my lord LOL.

The salsa that accompanied the chips had a nice mild flavor. I requested something with a bit more spicy "zing" and enjoyed the dish provided. Very tasty. We ordered chicken enchiladas with green sauce and a spicy seafood dish. Both dishes were great. The sauces served with our dishes pushed the flavor over the top. We finished our dining with a peach bread pudding topped with ice cream. Yummy. The service was a bit on the inexperienced side. The waitstaff were pleasant, they answered all of our questions and filled our requests. The restaurant was clean and had ample lighting. We will return to dine here, and recommend this restaurant to our friends.
