    Going to complain again about their super cheap cheese dip. Used to love this place when it was moxie taco. We sit at the bar and enjoy their margaritas they got super cheap with their CB wear dip. Wide bowl with 1/4 inch depth of dip. Just charge me more and give me a decent size. Quit cheaping out

    Went here for dinner the other day with my friend, as we were looking for somewhere to go for Taco Tuesday. They have a few select tacos for $3 and two different types of margs for $5, so we couldn't pass it up! The tacos at regular menu price aren't too expensive either, so we could definitely see ourself coming back on any other day as well. We got some of the cheese dip too. All the tacos were so tasty and the cheese dip. Our first marg tasted a little too sweet. Almost like there was no tequila in it. We got a skinny margarita the second time around, and that tasted much better. We came close to closing time, so there were plenty of tables and parking, but I'm sure it gets super packed earlier in the day/evening.

    We had dinner at Green Coyote Cantina on a Friday night recently. It wasn't too busy, so we were able to sit outside their deck seating area is very nice! Our server was friendly and helped us decide what to order. We all ordered margaritas and they were delicious. Strong too! The cheese dip was tasty, and the salsa was kind of spicy. I ordered a shrimp taco and a brisket taco. They were both great. I'd probably order all the same items again next time! I'll definitely be back soon.

    Mary Catherine was our server in the bar area. She is great, and worked the floor and bar area. The drinks were good and she kept the service flowing smoothly and in the order I requested. The rest of the very young staff and there are lots of them need training. The place was flooded with young families, lots of children including screaming babies. Definitely not my cup of tea. Thank God I requested to sit at the bar as they originally offered me a booth in the middle of the open restaurant and within 30 minutes it was flooded with kids. The food was good. My husband loved his fajitas, I did not like my smoked brisket quesadillas so we took them home and he ate them the next day. In all honesty its a great family restaurant but I like to have date night and pay a sitter so on a Friday night I would just choose not to return. Lots of free parking. With so many staff they should have them check the restroom as it was a mess. Location is great.

    I was very impressed with the food at this location and the quick service. We ordered a variety of appetizers and tacos to really get our taste buds popping and it did not disappoint! Our server took great care of us and upon walking in the hostess seated us at their front patio with their best view! They definitely took the best half of the patio where their next door restaurant neighbor doesn't have that good view. My only recommendations would be - 1) make the sweet tea sweeter! It tasted like unsweetened iced tea 2) the empanadas could use a little time longer in the oven, the flour wasn't thoroughly cooked. 3) give flour or corn tortilla options for the tacos 4) less lime on the street corn, they were a bit sour 5) I saw esquite on the menu, it's very popular with the same ingredients as the street corn (noticed it had different toppings from the street corn) maybe offer it as an alternative? 6) It's getting cold outside, I didn't see any patio warmers? The outdoor space wont be maximized once it's cold and people do not want to sit outside. Aside from that, everything else was perfect!

Virgin Miami Vice - It was really good, but it was blended a little thick, so it was hard to drink through the straw. I was also unaware it came topped with whipped cream. That's just a personal preference, and it's an easy fix to remove. Smoked Árbol Ribs - These were the star of the meal for me, which was surprising because when I think Mexican food, ribs aren't the first thing that come to mind. The árbol chili glaze sauce was excellent and really made the dish. Family Platter #2 (Grilled Quail, Beef Fajita, Grilled Chicken & Diablo Shrimp) We had some issues with the platter, but the manager addressed everything without us even having to ask. Because of the mix-up, we ended up getting lamb chops as well, which was a nice surprise. And for the record, this time I didn't request a manager or make a complaint! That level of customer service alone would make me come back. This platter is definitely enough food to feed 3-4 people and is a great option if you're dining with a group.

It's just a normal girls' lunch to catch up and this place has good ambiance for a small get together.

The Fuego dips includes, steak, shrimp, chicken, and chorizo; serve along side pico and tortillas. The proteins were all cooked perfectly!! The cheese has amazing flavor from all the proteins, the pico was extremely fresh, the hot tortilla is a nice touch. Wish there were more tortillas though, but the chips they gave right when you sat down works too. I ordered the Steak Fajitas, I haven't had fajitas in a while and really wanted the sizzle. When the entree arrived, it smelled so amazing and I couldn't wait to dig into it. I'm not really sure if they make their own flour tortillas, but it was fresh and soft and warmed and absolutely delicious. The bed of peppers and onions on the bottom of the steak is nicely cooked and caramelized, the steak is super tender and flavorful. There were some queso left from our appetizer and I added some into my steak fajita which elevated it to another level!! Absolutely love the food and service is on point. Will definitely be back to try something else and for more of that Fuego Dip with that warmed tortilla.

That's when our server - McLovin' - appeared. Not rushed, not flustered, but steady. Assured. A man who knows where the ranch jalapeno dip was and wasn't afraid to use that power. He placed our waters down gently but with purpose. Cold. Clear. Limitless. From that moment on, we trusted him... with everything. The King's Memorial combos arrived like a vow. Enchiladas layered in sauce, rich and unapologetic, as if they had been simmering while thinking about us specifically. Each bite wrapped itself around my expectations and whispered, "You're not leaving the same." My wife and I locked eyes across the table -- the look married people give each other when something very right is happening, and there's no need to narrate it. Then came the burrito. My son's "Big As Yo Face" steak burrito didn't just arrive -- it claimed territory. Massive. Confident. Wrapped tight like it knew its own worth. McLovin' presented it without fear, without commentary, because when something is that powerful, words only get in the way. Throughout the meal, McLovin' moved like a man guided by instinct alone. Our waters refilled before thirst could even form the thought. Chips refilled at the precise moment emotional closure was achieved. He never hovered. He never vanished. He existed in that rare, perfect space between presence and mystery. We didn't order the always-delicious Margaritas. They weren't required. Ours was a sober, fully conscious awakening. When the meal ended, we sat there for a moment. Quiet. Changed. Hydrated. And satisfied beyond reason. We paid the bill reluctantly, knowing some experiences can't be relived -- only honored by returning. Chuy's served food. McLovin' served destiny. We will be back.

This is my second time here and both times have been so good. We came as a party of 3 and left so happy and full. I love Mexican food holy moly We got the queso and octopus shrimp ceviche as starters. The queso was 3 cheeses: American, cotija, and Oaxacan. They heated it up under a salamander so it was nice and crispy on top, while being gooey all throughout. Also came with a couple of nice salsas. The ceviche was not my favorite because I don't prefer raw(ish) octopus, but the squid ink sauce was very flavorful. For our mains the 3 of us shared the red snapper, tuetano with lamb, and the mixteco poblano pepper. Red snapper had a nice charred smoky flavor from being grilled. Was more meaty than flaky in texture. It was our second time getting the mixteco poblano pepper and it hits. Highly recommend eating with some of the salsa as well if you get queso. The duck carnitas in it wasn't particularly duck-y today, but still very good. Best dish is definitely the tuetano. The bone marrow is so incredibly flavorful with the blue corn tortillas. Add some of the pickled onions and it's hard to go wrong with that flavor combo of salt, fat, and acid. if you're going to order one thing, I'd order this and share with a friend and tbh it's enough to be filling. For dessert we got the volcan de chocolate (basically lava cake). The lava cake and coconut ice cream combo is fantastic. You get bits of coconut flakes as you eat! Fair warning it isn't the brownie texture you may be used to, it's a bit more cakey. Amazing service the whole night! Almost got our cars booted because we forgot to validate until 1.5 hours in but luckily we were fine. The staff let us know they have been booting cars though so be wary!
