Best Flautas Ever! I…read morereally enjoy coming here. It's one of our favorite Mexican places now. Most of the things I've gotten here have been excellent. The flautas are just the best and it's my mom's favorite thing, too. Hubby has found his new fav burrito here so we come here often. I'm excited to try more stuff. The mixed drinks are pretty good as well. I don't know why but I cannot stand the corn tortillas here. They have a very off-putting smell to me. We tried the Margaritas Chicken Dip and I felt like there was way too much chicken and not enough queso. I think we will try the version without chicken next time and see if we like it better. I do love that this place has such an extensive menu because I'm always finding something different I want to try. We have both fallen in LOVE with the Gringo Quesadillas here. Joel prefers the chicken option but I am obsessed with the al pastor version. The steak version is meh (we got it by mistake once). The salsa is what really makes it. They bring a salsa for you to dip it in and put a little in the quesadilla itself. It's AMAZING. It's pretty much all we have been getting lately. The Pollo Borracho is good but it's got such a strong flavor that it's best eaten with tortillas to mellow it out a bit. The taco salad was pretty good. I really liked the flavor of the shell. It doesn't reheat that great but it's still decent. The baja taco had no flavor and fell apart to easily to eat. The quesetaco de puerco had too much fat on it. The quesetaco del pollo also had no flavor. The Chimichanga Casera tastes like nothing but tortilla and cheese. You can't even taste the meat. Same with the Fajita Quesadailla. I like the chicken option but the one with all the meats just mainly tastes like cheese. I disliked the Camarones Don Jose because they left the tails on the shrimp and the shrimp itself wasn't flavored, the bacon and cheese were just it. It was meh for me. The Pollo Bravo doesn't have much flavor other than cheese. I like onions and mushrooms but it felt like it needed more veggies. The Anaconda is fun and I would love to eat it with a group. Hubby and I liked it but it had too much rice inside to the point where it was dry. It benefitted from some queso. The shrimp fajitas come with the shells on them??? My sister got it and mentioned you can ask them to deshell it I think. Or she mentioned that she forgot to order something different. IDK but I would never want to eat that and have to fight for me food so I'll never get that.

So maybe my eyes aren't young eyes. But I shouldn't require a flashlight to read the danged menu! We ordered drinks. My son, who has disabilities, was served his drink in a lidded cup while everyone else got a regular open cup. He's 21!!!! If he needed a lid, we wouid have asked for it. I know it's a relatively small thing. I understand the waiter meant no harm. But it's a big pet peeve of mine. He's 21! The food was fine. It scratched my itch. I'm good for a while on the Mexican front.

It's kind of dark inside with dark ceilings and floors and paneling and it does make it slightly difficult to see the menu if you're gettin' up there in years! Not me of course. I'm young and spry. I had a mole de pollo which was quite good. The mole sauce was very good, it had a nice subtle heat. We had our chips and salsa refilled which was nice. Everyone was nice I've only got one real complaint and that is this - my son is 21 years old and has Down syndrome but he is perfectly capable of eating and drinking just like anyone else however when our beverages were brought over his beverage was put in a kids cup with a lid where's the rest of us got regular glasses. I'd prefer places presume competence and if I don't ask for a kids cup just put his beverage in a regular glass like the rest of us at the table got. If nothing else ask me if he is good with a regular cup.

Everyone was full and happy after our meal. The flavors were incredible. The calabacitas were beautifully seasoned in a light tomato based sauce - both my husband and I actually said "wow!" out loud with the first bite. We eat a lot of Mexican food, were from California and travel to Mexico frequently and even so this place stands out for the flavor, quality, and care put into the food. I regret not ordering a wider range of menu items to share because the narrow slice of offerings we tried were heavenly. Beyond the food, I love the warmth of this small restaurant, my kids got lollipops from the waitress while we waited for our takeout order. There were lots of families with kids eating in and it was a really nice relaxed and comfortable atmosphere.

We just wanted dinner. We had no idea there'd be a DJ. But when we saw one setting up, cool, we like music. But immediately it started with a loud siren then into unintelligible talk into a microphone then music way too loud for such a small place. Again, we like music and we enjoy when there's live music at dinner. And DJs are fine. But holy smokes. I asked our server if there was any way to turn it down juuuuuuust a smidge. She asked the DJ. He said we are free to move to a different spot. Well we were already as far from him as you could get in such a small establishment. So I'm sorry, Crazy Cactus, but you are taking the ding for allowing such loud music. Videos for example.

My husband and I ordered the same thing except he added grilled jalapeños to his. My order was brought out in a reasonable time. She said nothing about his food when she dropped mine off. She came back and brought the tortillas she forgot and said his food would be right out. NINE minutes later he got his food. No apologies or explanations given. The food itself was bland. No flavor in the chorizo or chicken. The bell peppers were crunchy, almost raw. Disappointing experience.
