"I had mixed feelings about eating here after reading the reviews. I agree with the negative reviews I'm afraid. If you eat Mexican from multiple places and you love Mexican food this is not good food. If you never eat Mexican and think of it as fast food Mexican is is good food. I eat a lot of Mexican food everywhere I go. Anytime I find a New Mexican restaurant I try it. I always get the same thing. The first reason is because I love chicken fajitas. The second reason is it gives me a good comparison to the flavor of the food from the previous place that I've eaten. The food here the chicken looked like it went through some kind of food chopper. It is hard to tell from the picture. I have never seen such chopped up chicken at any restaurant I've ever eaten. It was not cooked to order which is probably why it lacked flavor. It was brought out within 4 minutes of ordering. It lacked flavor of any kind. I had to add salsa to my fajita to try and add some flavor. The beans were okay. The rice was underwhelming. They also only gave two tortillas and for fajitas you should give three in my opinion. Without pico, sour cream and guacamole it had no way to add flavor. The bathroom was rundown, but clean enough.When I go to a restaurant, I always ask myself a question would I return. With this place the answer is no. However, I am not mad at this place because they have their food appropriately priced for the lack of flavor that it provides."

My wife and I stopped here for our first visit and, despite being a bit unsure about the wait for seating, I can honestly say we are completely satisfied and it was definitely worth it! I would recommend this place 100%. It's a little gem of Mexican cuisine! View menu

Aggressively mediocre food and service. Perhaps it’s because my standard of Mexican food is high being from California, or perhaps it was just because this place failed to deliver quality food. Either way, should have just spent $10 at Taco Bell would have been just as good for a fraction of the cost. Food: 2 Service: 2 Atmosphere: 3 View menu

I drove in, and there was little to no parking. It's pretty typical for a Saturday night. Walked in, waitress led us to our table, and waiter immediately took our drink orders. The salsa they brought was very spicy. Waited roughly 5-10 minutes before he came back. I ordered the Chicken Fajitas, which was roughly $18. The cheapest they had was the Veggie Fajitas, and they were $16. The waiter only checked back on us once throughout the whole time we were there. Waited about 20 minutes or so, and finally got our food. The fajitas came in a sizzling skillet with a big plate of rice, beans, lettuce, tomatoes, and sour cream, which had little to no taste at all. The portion size I felt was a reas...
