The most disgusting tortilla soup I have ever had. It was boiling water w a piece of chicken breaat and chick-peas on it. Ironically, it didn't even have tortilla let alone any flavor. Rice and beans were tasteless than blend. Decided to be respectful and paid, bit it was a total scam .

We visited the restaurant last weekend for the first time and were disappointed with our experience. The food lacked flavor (very bland), especially the ground beef tacos, which had an odd aftertaste resembling Taco Bell's texture but not its taste. It was borderline gross. My wife isn't picky with her Mexican food but agreed that everything was bland, including her chicken enchiladas with green sauce. The fresh guacamole was mediocre, and overall, everything seemed bland. Additionally, the customer service wasn't that great either. They were not rude, but our waitress was not very friendly. She could have just been having one pf those days. I wouldn't recommend to my friends and family.

Place is too busy with large groups, which affects the quality of the food. The indoor space can't handle multiple groups of 7 plus. We were sitted and ordered, our beers got there quick, but our food took a bit long. The refiried beans were dry from being under a heat lamp, the veggie was mostly black beans with Pico de Gallo. As we ate, more people showed up so, did the large groups. The staff added more tables indoors, granted it was already full. Very over priced for what we had.. Vegetarian options: Very little to no variety of veggies for Vegetarians.

Nice Mexican food restaurant at this strip mall. Food was good. Nothing that I’m going to write home about but the service was exceptional and the restaurant was clean.
