This place has no idea what Mexican food should taste like. The food was disgusting and had no flavor. You could tell that they took picante salsa and poured it in a bowl. No homemade salsa? Really? I asked for sweet tea, they brought me out a bottle of Arizona sweet tea. Really? The chips were not homemade. They were probably chips out of a bag. I would not recommend this place to anyone. Being a Texan, this is not even close to Mexican food.

If I could give them no stars, I would. First of all, there was a vase with rotten roses and moldy water sitting next to our table. Next, the chips were stale and the salsa was from a can, not home made like I'm use to at Mexican restaurants. And reasonably priced? Not hardly. The vast majority of the entrees were $10.99 and above, not the norm for most Mexican restaurants. My wife and I ordered 2 waters, only to get 2 bottles of 16.9 ounce water, $6 for 24 at Walmart. They charged us $1.50 each. So much for free water and refills. After the waters, we ordered fajitas to share. There was no flavor to them, whatsoever, with cheese covering them that resembled sticky tack. I'm pretty sure I could have hung pictures with that stuff. After we got the fajitas, the waitress did not come back out to check on us, so I had to go to the back to find her so we could get lettuce, normal cheese, tomatoes (going bad), and sour cream (more like soup and rotten). Oh, and the beans were more of a liquid and the rice was cold. Need I say more? DO NOT, I REPEAT, DO NOT GO TO THIS PLACE! If I were on foot and this was the last restaurant within 50 miles, I would walk the additional 50 miles to the next restaurant. The bill was over $16 for 1 entree and 2 waters. Do the math. 2 entrees and 2 waters would have been almost $30 for food from this hole in the wall.

My friend and I went to eat there last night. They took forever to come to your table for the order. When I got our Salsa and chips to eat, the chips were bad. Then we ordered our main food. The waitress didn't put my order in so I sat there watching my friend eating her food and I ate Salsa and Chips. I would never go back in there again. Bad rating. I was listening to others there were were there by us and they were upset too.

Great authentic mexican home made food @ reasonable prices. It's not at all like a chain restaurant so you will not be disapointed.
