I was not impressed by the food at all. To start the chips tasted stall, old grimy, and flat. Salsa was flat and salty. Service was quick and polite with no complaints there. Then the main dishes came fairly quick so that helped feed hungry kids. I never tasted so much salt on shrimp fajitas that it crunched, and the sides for it tasted, well not good. My boys was alright but the fries were undercooked an no salt. My daughters kid plate corn dog was so over done it was split and burnt. Her fries were, cold, undercooked, bland. The facility was clean but could use some updates, painting so chipping peeling areas, and just general up keep. Plenty of parking and it’s easy in and out. Not planning on going back.

Good service from Juan & Magil, The Salsa was very good... Salsa had a Mild New Mexico taste of Red Chili flavor with small chunks in it, Chip were served warm. Good Margarita and they have a small Bar with other bottles of Liquor. I ordered the Lunch Special #1 and it was very good... The Pablos come with Beef and Cheese inside of it. The Front of the Restaurant needs a touch up... Clean up, it had plants and Paint cans lying around and plants needed some love... Good prices. I'm a Top 10 Reviewer for Google Maps for Restaurants and I recommend this place.

Decent Mexican food at reasonable prices. Service is usually great although have had a few times where the waiter disappears or forgets to bring whatever we had asked for. The cheese sauce they put over certain dishes is excellent, just a little heat on it. The salsa for the chips is just so-so. I highly recommend the Pollo Fundido! Overall a great place to eat. It's a smaller restaurant and a bit tight with seating at the tables but nothing earth shattering.

I was really disappointed with this place. We had to request our server's presence for everything we needed: to order, get drink refills, get checks. My friend's tacos were so soaked in grease that they were stuck together in one mass of a mess. My fajitas were 75% tomatoes and over-cooked. After requesting (from another server) fresh tacos as well as some food that never came in the first place, we saw our server one more time. A simple apology would have made things better, but we never saw the server again and the gentlemen who rang us out was probably the most rude person in the restaurant. I'm a relatively easy customer to satisfy, but I was really irritated by the time we left. Perhaps some training in hospitality would...

The food was substandard. There was no cheese on my Carne Asada Quesadilla. My friend recieved someone elses order. She ordered a shredded beef chimi and got a shrimp chimi instead. She is very allergic to sea food, I'm glad we caught that before she ate it. The waitress came to our table twice, once to take the order then again to find out why we returned the shrimp chimi. I had to get my own bill at the cashiers, not delivered to my table. Then the cashier double charged my debt card, I did get the first charge reversed, which took 3 days at my bank. I was surprised that I didn't get anything compt. I will never go back. Honestly I wonder how they are still open. Please save you money, and...
