Customer Reviews
I had good service while sitting at the bar area, but overall, the experience was just okay. The restaurant wasn’t very busy, and I decided to try something new, their New Ranchliadas which I ended up regretting. I wouldn’t order that dish again. Compared to other Mexican restaurants, the food quality here just doesn’t match up for the price. I’ve visited several locations from this chain across different states, but this particular one didn’t impress me. I wasn’t a fan of the interior vibe either.
I love the new menu/food! You can taste the freshness. I had the steak and shrimp fajita, the shrimp is noticeably fresh, not frozen and the Mexican butter is amazing! I want to smother it on everything!!! Our server Michele was the best. We can’t wait to visit again. The new tables and booths are nice too. This place really needed an upgrade! Keep up the good work guys!
We come here now and then. I always try their tacos or go for the bowl. Never disappointed. My husband tried the margarita and he said he liked it.
If I would give zero stars I would. We ordered a take out of 3 bowls. We were shocked to find the quantities after we came home . IT will not be enough even for kids. And we certainly did not order from kids menu. It's very disappointing to see tthe quantity offered is so low for such a strep price. Never again going to this place
I’ve been coming here for years. They switched the menu completely and it’s trash. The chicken is so light it looks undercooked. It looked boiled and was so bland and disgusting. The sour cream was so sweet it tasted like whipped cream. I couldn’t even eat one fajita that’s how nasty it was. I also don’t know why there’s now chopped up tomato in the rice. The food was so gross I will not be back. Don’t know why they had to change. It’s awful.
