  This has to be by far the worst Mexican food I have ever had. The shredded beef for the tacos were extremely salty to mask the low quality meat. The service was worse than the food. Our waitress saw that we had only taken one bite of our food and she did not bother to ask how the food was. She did not seem shocked as people not eating this food is hardly surprising. PLEASE avoid at all cost. Do not waste you money on this horrible place. The cheesecake factory’s nachios are 100x better than this place and they are 10usd cheaper.

  Friendly, engaging staff and happy hour specials were reasonable priced. Food was a bit bland, but a selection of sauces helped.

  After a considerable wait; after being seated; for our waitress to come and take our order everything was a disappointment. The restroom is located outside the restaurant downstairs; and you need a key to get in, which the staff fail to mention. The menu had several options of mediocre choices. Sour cream/guacamole are an extra you may order to put a little taste to your food for an additional $3 on top of your $20-30 plate of food. I also overheard another table ask our waitress how they could get some of the chips and salsa that every other table had, except ours. She boasted that all YOU have to do is ask. If you don't ask for the FREE chips and salsa she won't bring them to you. Once the food was brought out there was never any follow up or refreshment of our drink orders. I had read the reviews prior to going and it seemed mixed so I took a gamble. Don't make the same mistake.

  This place is terrible. I wouldn’t let my dog eat here if he were starving. Waayyy over priced for one thing, but on top of that, we got no service. Our waiter was all over the place and completely neglected us after our appetizer. We asked for the check and went to Duke’s. In the pouring rain. I’d rather be wet that give more money for bad service. Don’t eat here.

  Went twice on our week long stay. Once for food, once for just drinks. Estelle was WONDERFUL. Sweet, kind, and very funny. She really did a great job of turning around our second experience. The first trip was okay. The waiter was obviously confused and didn’t have the information about specials / happy hours etc. but, the taco bowl was great! The second time we just wanted to pop in for a couple of drinks and head back to the hotel. Right when we said we were just getting drinks the manager? owner? wasn’t very accommodating and almost turned us away. There was a larger group coming (8) and she wanted a place for them. After rearranging the other guests and losing a group of 4, about 10 minutes after she left the entire place cleared out! Estelle got us our drinks and made sure we were comfortable. I’d come back just for her!
