One of the very few Mexican restaurants that when I walk down and sit I feel that authentic warm feeling run through my bones. Although I don't have any Mexican Heritage in my blood, every time I take in their enchiladas and a sweet sweet margarita I feel as if these employees are truly trying to give me the best experience based on their own heritage that they can.
I know the restaurant is fairly new and small, but PLEASE put it on your calendar to visit them as soon as possible when you have the chance.
All the employees are super friendly (I believe it's VERY family orientated and run), customer service is great, and the food is top notch with an extremely diverse menu that is put into your hands. It is also a very small space which makes the experience feel more authentic and allows you to interact with other customers which is a plus (at least for me). I love restaurants where you experience not only is based on the restaurant, but the environment and atmosphere. And who doesn't love meeting potential new friends sitting in a seat close to you? Or simply just being able to ask them their opinions on their favorite meals without having to play peek-a-boo over the booths. That's just creepy.
My only strike (and it may be small to some, but why I rated 4 stars) is the pricing. The food is heavily priced and the drinks IMO are overpriced. If you and a friend go and order an appetizer, main meal, and two staple drinks you're going to be looking at a bill in the low $60's. That's a heavy price to pay, at least for me, for a quick and simple sit down meal at the bar. But hey, rent in Fort Collins is not getting...
Read moreMy wife and I had been here a couple times before for breakfast and it was good but our visit today missed the mark. We were seated promptly and our drink orders came soon after as well as the waitress taking our order. My wife ordered an omelette with bacon, spinach, tomatoes and swiss cheese with hash browns, crispy and a pancake in lieu of toast. I ordered eggs Benedict with ham, hash browns also crispy and a pancake in lieu of toast.
Unfortunately the star of the meal were the pancakes. The waitress let us know a bit after taking our order that they were out of swiss for my wife's omelette. No biggie she chose cheddar instead. The order took longer than I had expected to come out to us. It definitely wasn't busy in the dining room but they may have had to go or delivery orders to do so it didn't bother us too much. When the food finally came out there were some disappointing issues. Neither of our orders of hash browns were anything close to crispy. In fact they were soggy and mushy. My wife's omelette was made with ham instead of bacon and was unusually greasy. The poached eggs on my Benedict weren't terrible but seemed to be poached in a microwave as opposed to a pot of water. and the most unfortunate part was the hollandaise sauce was broken when it was served.
All in all disappointing but I'm hoping it was just a one off bad experience. We will most likely try as our past experiences have been okay and as a local restaurant I really want...
Read moreWorst dining experience ever!! My husband and I went for dinner. We first ordered Micheladas to drink. They brought us 2 big chilled mugs with seasoning inside the mugs and 2 bottled beers. When we added the beer to the mugs it only filled the mugs half way so we had to order 2 more beers to fill the mugs. Our food came out ice cold. The chicken was ice cold, the Carne asada was like cardboard and the bacon wrapped around the shrimp was raw. Once we brought this to the waiters attention he treated us horrible, rude towards us. The manager or owner came to our table to tell us he wasn't charging us for that plate. It then took them over 35 minutes to get our ticket to us. We were told that the manager was trying to fix the ticket. Once we got our bill, we were shocked to see it was over $50!!! We figured out that they fudged the bill to where it looked like we weren't charged for that entree, but raised amounts on the other entree and micheladas. We will NEVER go back or recommend to any of our family or friends!! We would give zero stars if we could!...
