My daughter and I dined here the other night, and I wish we hadn't. The server was alright, but she definitely hurried us along. I had asked for lemons a few different times, to which I did not receive said lemons until my daughter got up and asked her for some. She also sat our bill down as we were taking our first bite. She didn't bother giving my daughter a refill. She also got huffy when we asked for a drink to go and a box. Really?? I felt like we were "bothering her". As for the food, it was atrocious. The chips were the worst I've ever had at a Mexican restaurant. I ordered Arroz Texana, it tasted alright until I ate a few more bites. My daughter had nachos, which were nothing special and really greasy. These dishes are our go-tos at other restaurants and we love them. My daughter was so hungry she ate all of hers, but ended up throwing it all up by the time we got home. (Sorry about sharing, but I think it's worth mentioning.) I didn't eat mine after a few bites, due to it seeming off and my stomach hurting. I got home and fed it to my fur baby. As my daughter was still eating we were approached by another lady who came up and aggressively asked us to pay our bill because "the manager was trying to count down the till." Really my daughter would have been finished if they had given us a few more minutes, and I wouldn't have had that scenario to mention. As we walked out of the restaurant there were five people standing at the counter and NOT ONE of them acknowledged our existence. No thank you, no have a good night, no nothing. I definitely will not return to this establishment. There are far better restaurants to patronize and people that make you feel like your...
Read moreI really don’t understand how this restaurant has so many good reviews. I usually order tacos from any Mexican restaurant I go to and you usually get a little lettuce, cheese and sometimes tomatoes on them. But not here, all you get is a tortilla wrap or hard shell with whatever kind of meat or bean taco you order nothing else on it. I like chicken tacos but do not like the shredded chicken that they serve here, it tastes like it comes out of a can. So I ordered grilled chicken instead. I ended up paying 8 dollars for a 3 dollar chicken taco ala carte. I asked to speak to the manager and he told me that grilled chicken costs more. I said well if that’s the case I am paying 3 dollars for a tortilla shell. Let’s just say I was not a happy camper.
My friends seem to really like to eat here so I usually decline to join them when this is where they want to go eat. On the rare occasions I do go I only eat the chips and salsa and drink water. I would not recommend this...
Read moreFalse advertising on the empanadas. See attached photos, read on for a culinary breakdown rivaling that of a Michelin star reviewer.
As a level 5 local guide, you could say I’ve been around the block, so much that it’s comparable to Tetris. When I arrived here, I was peckish, and decided to indulge in some empanadas, which were advertised as “4 fresh empanadas of your choice”.
When they arrived, my stomach lurched, surely, these small empanadas were not what the doctor ordered! There were 5-6 of them, and they were as small as a salt and pepper shaker.
As I bit into the first one, my optimism faced the grim reality: these tasted bad.
Not inedible, but I would only eat these if I were featured on the hit show Alone, where contestants have to scavenge for food in the woods. If I were scavenging, I would not pass them up, but until that dark post apocalyptic day, I cannot recommend this establishment, lest my honor as a local guide be stained.
Also the soft...
