My boyfriend and I frequent this place often and have loved our experience every single time. Wanted to shout out our most recent waitress, Sarah, who gave 10/10 service and had the bubbliest personality!!

This place is delicious. Great food for very fair prices, portions are huge. It's your local, solid, Mexican spot that doesn't disappoint. The staff is always very friendly, the manager/owner does a great job. To give an example: I ordered takeout and got not even 1 minute down the road and they called to let me know they forgot something. To fix an error before I even knew of it is impressive. Give it a shot!!

nice place to stop by and get a yummy, filling lunch for a really good price. they also have free chips and salsa which is always a plus. they also had some of the best tortillas i have ever tasted, and multiple people in my group agreed. the food came at a timely manner too considering we went during the lunch rush. really nice service too!

Was working close and decided to try this restraunt for lunch. It seemed to be a bit dated inside. Was greeted right away and seated. The service and food were both pretty good. Big menu to choose from. They offer a big lunch menu and combinations to choose from. Also, offer a dinner menu as well. Pretty good Mexican restraunt.

I’ve been to this restaurant multiple times and never had I had a bad experience. I tried something new this time going. Now being that this was something new I was told that all of the topping would be separate from the food. My request was that it put in different container’s because of my tomatoe allergy. The food came out and of course it was all together and had tomatoes on it. I called over the server to get a new order. He left with the food and came right back. The kitchen staff simply picked out the tomatoes and sent the dish back out. I could tell that it was just picked out because some tomatoes pieces were left in the food. I then asked for the manager and explained what took place. He simply removed the dish and apologized and walked away. This was very disappointing for me because after informing them of the tomato allergy it was completely ignored. Thank god I paid close attention or this could have ended much worst. Please get better when your playing with peoples lives after being informed about an allergy. If that was something that they couldn’t do I would have simply ordered something else.

I had ordered a taco salad for lunch pickup. The restaurant is clean and the service was wonderful. The salad was really big and very good with fresh veggies, meat, refried beans.
