I'd like to say that the food was the highlight of my experience which it was awesome, but the service and overall friendliness of everyone working there was the best!!!! I'd highly recommend this place to anyone!
Wonderful, friendly service is a strong part of the high marks here. The atmosphere is welcoming and festive. There's nothing particularly innovative on the vegetarian menu, but at least it's there, with multiple combo options, and that is greatly appreciated! My Spanish rice and tostada were good. The cheese enchilada gets a lower score; the sauce needs a bit of work, as it was insipid, without piquancy or depth. But high marks on the adequate sauce volume provided; there's nothing worse than a dry, under-sauced and over-cheesed enchilada, and this was definitely not that. The complimentary chips and salsa were also greatly appreciated; too many Mexican places have started charging for this, and I find that reprehensible. The salsa had a nice spicy punch, a bit more than typical in this type of restaurant, and was great on the tostada.
Food came out fast, which was great. The cheese sauce was a little too spicy on the chimichangas plate and was poured over the entire plate. We sent it back and asked that the sauce be on the side and it was delicious.
Peeps, I had the pleasure of dining here for a week vacay! Let me start off by saying the Customer Service is Phenomenal, they make sure you are taken care of even if you are carry-out! The food is Ahhhmazing I got The Fajita Salad and you did not need any dressing. It was enough for two meals. Now, Hear me out, I do not like green peppers, but every other color and spice I love! They cooked the green peppers, onions, and beef to perfection! I ordered the 3 tacos for my husband and he said they were the best he has ever had. The food has a real authentic Mexican taste. Did I also mention my order came with Chips and Salsa, and the salsa had just the right amount of heat. I am definitely coming back.
The food was great- but the service here was incredible from Ms Cynthia - she is a sweet soul and we will be back because of her... and the fajitas
