    I am going to start with the food. It is so good especially their beans. Enchiladas are really good, same can be said about their quesadillas. Rice is good and the atmosphere is great. Especially their outside patio. It is super good comfortable chairs red umbrellas perfect place to eat if you want some good Mexican food. Services good but nothing special. 5 out of 5!!!!

    First Visit—based on reviews had high expectations! Sad to say—a great disappointment. First—the bar is very small—seats about 8 cramped against one another—opted for a table. Dining Room is spacious and a good vibe—that’s about the best thing. My Server was kind and full of smiles. Did the best to try and rec items. Today was their Taco Tuesday specials👎I chose unwisely—2 Crispy Beef Tacos (thought they were ground beef, but they were filled with very old, dried up, even crispy edges of shredded beef—chewy and almost inedible) and stale Taco Shells. I ordered a side of guacamole—they said it was the size of the salsas but you can see the photo—2 tiny scoops and old tasting—sent it back—not worth $6! Not even worth $2! Decided to try the Jack Cheese Quesadilla—it was good, yet very thin and very sparse (look at the plate) for $12! Another very negative thing was one of the employees was laying across the bathroom sinks when I went to the restroom talking on her cell phone loudly with it on video and it sounded like she was talking with a male! Very unprofessional and uncomfortable! I couldn’t get to the sink to wash my hands! The soap is like nothing—no lather—just disappears when you rub your hands together. 😯 This same employee was the one clearing dishes and would stand and watch you and as soon as you barely put your fork down was at your table asking to take your plates! I appreciate having plates cleared as many seemed to have stopped doing this since Covid! But to have someone standing by my table, like a hawk, waiting to swoop in and grab my plate the second I put my fork down was so off putting that I literally told her to leave me alone the last time she tried to take my plate! Sorry! Not sorry! Wanted to like this place. Sad to say, I hated it and won’t be back nor can I recommend it.

    We came from Vegas, on vacation. We wanted to have some quality Mexican food. I checked the reviews on google and this place had a lot of positive reviews with a high rating. We were not disappointed. We were immediately welcomed, seated and greeted. The chips and salsa were great. Our entrees were amazing. My kids loved their meals. My steak fajitas were absolutely great with a large portion. I brought half home. My husband got the 2 different enchiladas and a steak with red sauce and chicken in green. He said they were the best enchiladas he’s ever had. The service was excellent as well. We will be back again.

    I would rate this restaurant 10 out of 10! The food was delicious, the staff was friendly and the atmosphere was great. Our server Hurley took great care of us. He deserves a raise! My family and I had a great time, especially when the men sang happy birthday to my daughter. Thank you for your hospitality! We highly recommend this restaurant!
