    Now let me start off by saying I'm not the biggest fan of Mexican food, but goodness gracious. First off, my server, Nancy, was outstanding. Her personality was bouncing off the walls, and she was the most friendly and gracious server I have had in years.

    Not only that, but the food was absolutely magnificent! I ordered the Tamalee and Steak taco, and it was wonderful! The tamalee had this super cream sauce on top, and the chicken was perfectly moist! And the taco with the steak was seasoned beautifully and the quality of the tortilla was amazing. I will definitely be returning to this establishment with my dear grandson, and if I could give this place an 100/10, I would!

    Just went there for lunch and order shrimp.
    The second I cut into them they gave off a smell. The shrimp they gave me were bad.
    Feeding someone smelly expired shrimp is no good. They really smelled bad.

    The food and service is great. You can order just about anything and you can't go wrong.  

    The only negative is the coffee is NOT good, extremely weak. I come for the ambiance and food. We usually bring our instant coffee to add to their watered down coffee water.

    Really good authentic Mexican food. I tried their salsa with chips and then  and their enchiladas de queso, super delicious!! Definitely coming back soon.

    Menudo was in point here loved the flavor and homemade taste everything was great here they just need better creamer for their coffee other than that great place for Sunday brunch.

    Update 2/17/19

    Empty tables still 20 min wait, out of menudo soda and other items, you would think you would know your flow of business after being here all these years.

    Also when your seated they take even 20 minutes to take your drink order then another 10 for food order only to be rushed what to order when they tell you they are out of items as it's your fault.

    This place has went down hill from last time it was here.
