    Wow, I can't say enough about this place it was absolutely amazing. Right off the back with excellent service. Chips and salsa right when we sat down. The guacamole was AMAZING. perfect avocados. Our server allowed us to take our time and came back with respectable time to take our order. Our food came quick and it was delicious! Definitely would recommend this place and their margaritas!

    I saw what good reviews this place had so decided to give it a try.  I ordered tacos de carne asada. They were ok. The steak had some kind of seasoning on it which I could've done without. Both the rice and the beans were bland. They had no taste at all.  The chips and salsa were ok, not the best I've ever had.  

    The service was slow and they weren't that busy.  Two of my friends ordered fajitas. The waitress brought out my friends beans and rice and salad but they had to wait another 5 minutes or longer for their fajitas. That's unacceptable.

    I probably wouldn't go back if I was in the area and I absolutely love Mexican food.

    This place is amazing. I don't know where to start. The Molcajete is to die for. We all had something different and share our food. Everyone agreed that the flavors were there. Service was great. We forgot to take pictures, but the presentation is impressive.
    Great place.

    Danger! Serious food poisoning and wouldnt contact me!
    Read to the end please if you value your tummy!

    It started as a funny visit but it should have been a serious red flag. My wife asked for some lime with her diet coke, as usual. The waitress literally asked "thats the green one or yellow?"  Wow! Lol!! It wasn't funny for long.

    I, as always,asked what could be made with no onions as I am highly allergic. Like kill me allergic. The waitress stated the Burrito could be made without onions. When it arrived, I had a bad feeling, luckily, and cut it open. It was full of onions.  The service was slow but when I could finally get her attention and pointed out the onions she stated....
    ".....they are small though..." Wow. Seriously?!  I even explained again that they could kill me.  No concern whatsoever.

    I then gave up on that and asked for nachos so I wouldn't die. It took quite a while and she showed up with a plate with some chips and a little bit of queso poured on them. No thick beautiful melted cheese. It was gross.

    I decided, out of character, that I needed to speak to the manager. I wanted to be sure he knew how terrible the service had been and how SCARY it is for a waitress to not know what a lime is and to not understand the seriousness of food allergies. He stated sorry but that was it.  I made clear the burrito and nachos should not show on my ticket. He walked away....

    Waitress finally came back a bit later and took the nachos, but never refilled my wifes drink.  When she came back all she said was "I guess you dont want these" and too the horrid nacho plate.

    We paid and left.  That is NOT where it ends.  My wife woke up in serious pain at one am.  She suffered all night. We were 1400 miles from home, I had just finished a few days of work and we took a few more days to see her brother's once in a lifetime Command change ceremony with the US Navy.  At 5:30 am I went in to the bathroom to check on her and she was dripping sweat and swaying.  I immediately went to her and all she could say was, " I dont feel right" and I was barely able to catch her.  She went totally limp in my arms. Her eyes rolled back in her head and she had a small seizure before vacating her stomach. It was so scary. I will spare the details, but it scared both of us so bad. I thought she was dying. She came too and was able to sit up and speak and gained her faculties.

    She came to and explained how bad she had hurt all night.  After a long ordeal, she thought she could at least see her brother on base for a minute. (I also called the restaurant and left a message explaining the serious event and asked for a call back. Nothing.)

    Unfortunately, she got so bad again we had a Naval doctor check her out and had to get her laid down. It was clear food poisoning. We had to watch her for continued fever or blackouts as it could be a sign of serious brain swelling. We then spent the rest of our time out of town with her ill. It was supposed to be a time to see family, get away for a few days, and celebrate our anniversary. Thanks a lot.

    So, thank you for trying to kill both of us an not caring in the restaurant and not caring when I called in desperation 1400 miles from home.

    You ruined some really important memories for us.
