Customer Reviews

"Fastest and best Mexican food in town!"

- 045spdgt

"I thought it was just okay. It probably would have been better had I not been charged $5 for guacamole whenever I just asked to have some guacamole instead of cheese and sour cream on top. So a $7.99 taco salad became over 13.00. I do not appreciate that and I won't be back. I told the guy I just needed a little bit like a spoonful or whatever. He brought out a bowl and it didn't even look good. Had a bunch of stuff in it and tasted okay. Never had guac with that much crap shoved in it. It was a bad experience. The server was nice but it took forever to get a ticket."

"We just ate here for the first time and the food was very good and the tortillas are the best. The prices were fair and the staff are very friendly. We can't wait to try it again."
