★★★★★ 5.0 Jordan Yoshimine · Sep 2020

Our Airbnb host recommended this place to us and we were not disappointed. First, let me say service was excellent. Multiple employees stopped by to assist us with our requests. Drinks were topped off; chips and salsa were refilled liberally. Top notch. Food was very, very good. Portion sizes are quite large. We may be back before the trip is over!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Joshua Poe · Oct 2022

The food was good, the service was great and the restaurant was clean. I especially enjoyed the Chicken Fajita Nachos. They were layered and covered with toppings. The only negative that I can say was that it was a little pricey compared to some of the other Mexican restaurants in the area. I would say that most meals were about $1.50 to $2 more, but the portions were generous and the food was good.

Went in and asked for a menu, and they didn't have what I wanted, so....... They went above and beyond, and created one for me. And I've never really been a fan of red salsa..... That is until I tried theirs. ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! 5 Stars, and I will definitely return

First time here for Mother’s Day! I got tapatios tacos, they were so yummy. Great quality and size…it came with four tacos and I ordered an extra thinking I’d want more but I was stuffed by the time I finished the 3rd one. Hubby got Texas fajita and he loved his as well…dessert was enjoyable as well. I got flan the kids got churros..also I would like to mention how quick the service was. Chips and salsa as soon as we were seated. After we finished the the chips the food came right away.

Stopped in for food and drinks after work. We felt a difference in how we were treated because of how we looked compared to their “white” customers. Asked to speak to a manager and was refused that option. We left disappointed and walked over to Drakes where we had great service and left a generous tip on a $300 bill.
