"It was in the evening of the National Margarita Day when my partner and I came here around 8pm. When you walked in, the place was packed full of people and you can hear everyone chatting away, laughing, and just having a great time. The vibe was great, you can just feel the love and the warmth walking in and greeted by smiles. We received nothing short of great service here with a friendly intimate atmosphere.Luckily there were two seats at the bar, we were happily greeted and so well taken care of right away. We received waters, chips and salsa while we perused the many great authentic menu offerings. The chips were thick and you can tell they were homemade (can't stand those chips that can't handle a dip and just break off), not overly salted, and the salsa was thick, very bright and flavorful. Of course we ordered the house margaritas right away first and they are up there with the best. Great mix of slightly sweet and not overpowering, good amount of alcohol content, just a gentle rim of salt, served in beautiful glass with a proper straw that isn't paper and a lime wedge.I settled on the Chile Relleno stuffed with steak. It came out in no time at all. They seem very efficient and have everything down to a science. the Chile still had its spice which paired so well to the thick and tender steak inside. I probably could have eaten two more at least it was beyond delicious. The black beans were so flavorful compared to other places where they can fall flat and be bland. The beans and guac come in these homemade tortilla cup bowls. It was very unique, something I've never seen before, and it makes sense not only for easier clean up but it adds a special touch to the presentation of the dish that highlights each portion and its not just all hodge podged together with ladels on a plate. Lots of care and love went into this dish and every dish, which is rare now a days in an age where things just get cranked out and they lose their quality and lack luster.This is definitely one of my new favorite spots and I look forward to coming here more often! I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a real authentic Mexican food restaurant experience that will take your taste buds on a journey from beginning to end!"

"Some reviews claim that this place is authentic , however, that 's not even close. They (the restaurant) must assume that most people don 't know any better. There are far better places than this one. The food here is mediocre at best. There is another location on Rt. 6, near the lake, that in my opinion, is far superior than this place, but I 'll leave that up to other reviewers. I won 't disclose what took place during our experience, but I will state that it was my second time coming here in quite some time because other reviews have made claim how good they are. I 'm sorry to say this but, those that have made such a claim, are incorrect, and even may not have had the experience of good, true Mexican cuisine. However, in time, you 'll discover that this place can not hold a candle to others. I don 't want to come to a restaurant to drop $100+ and not get what I was expecting due to the claim of other reviewers. This restaurant needs to step their game up, especially for what they 're charging. I had a few tequilas, straight up, and they charged me $15 each. GTFOH!!!! I could have bought the whole bottle for just under $40. You want to hit me with $10, I get it, but $15!?!?! Things are not getting any better out here, and places like this take the joy of going out. To other patrons, choose wisely!! For those that like to get ripped off, and have ok food at best; knock yourself out!! It 's your buck, not mine."
