PSA- As of 6/3/24, the menu prices listed on their official website are out of date. Expect to pay +10% over the website's listed prices. Expect to pay for extra chips, salsa, etc.
Review- It felt like something was off when I asked for more chips and no salsa was served alongside. I then specifically asked the server if the bean dip and salsa were complimentary along with the chips and, if so, could I get more. The server said "yes" and brought more. Later, when I went to pay and requested a printed receipt, the server/cashier simply walked off after charging my card and never came back. I waited about five minutes before having to flag someone else down to obtain my receipt.
I then discovered that they had charged for the 2nd round of chips, salsa, beans, and the extra tortillas needed for the $24 fajita dinner.

The salsa that comes with chips is very mild but full of flavor. I personally prefer the spicier stuff but they didn’t have the option. I asked for salsa verde and was able to try it. It wasn’t bad but I am used to a heavier tomatillo content. This one seemed lacking tomatillos. The chips were great though!
I loved the service and I think this place is a decent sit down Mexican food in the area. However I much prefer El Favorito for...
Read moreHi I just had the worst experience that I had ever had with restaurants. We went to this place to try it and we were going to order to go. When we got there Google said they we closing at 9:30 and we got there at 9 so the sign in the window said they were open, when we got to the door there was a lady and I nicely with my hands asked her if they were closed, she ignored me then I thought well maybe she didn't see me when she look up again I asked and she did it again she just look at me and didn't nod or anything she just ignored me if they had nod or just with her hands said o yes we are closed then I would just had returned tomorrow but because of what she did I will never try that place I guess they don't need...
