    My experience here on 7-10-25 was just okay--definitely not the worst, but not somewhere I'd be in a hurry to return to. We arrived around 2:30 PM to take advantage of the lunch specials, but it took a minute for our server to even come to the table. By the time she got to us, it was just past 2:30, and we were told we'd have to pay an extra dollar to order off the lunch menu. That was disappointing because we were already seated before the cutoff--just hadn't been helped yet. I ordered the Fajita Trio and a Blue Raspberry Margarita. The margarita was tasty and definitely had me feeling good before my entrée came out. My food was good, no real complaints there. My spouse's experience was not as smooth. He has a cheese allergy and asked for no cheese sauce on the El Volcán. expected. The green bell pepper wasn't fried as requested. When the food arrived, it still didn't look appealing to him, and he decided he didn't want it. He didn't eat any of it, just examined the dish, but when we asked to switch, the waitress made it seem like it would be an issue--almost like the request to remove the cheese was the reason they didn't want to take it back. She told us she had to go ask the cook or whoever was in the back before deciding if the switch could happen, which felt unnecessary given that the plate wasn't touched. In the end, they let him switch. He asked to replace it with the lunch special burrito, and to just reuse the same steak from the previous dish to avoid making a big deal. He said the burrito was fine, but next time he knows not to get the red tomato sauce on top because it made the burrito messy and hard to pick up. The guy at the front was nice and professional, but the waitstaff service was uneven. Our original waitress didn't even finish serving us because she went on break in the middle of our meal--which I found strange. In my opinion, good customer service means seeing your table through before stepping away. Thankfully, our second waitress (a lady in a red shirt with a ponytail) was very friendly and attentive. I really wish we had her from the beginning.

    Mexican mariachi music plays thought the restaurant. Fresh chips and salsa to start were good. Server had a great recommendation, Little Mexico. A great sampler of a taco, ,taquito (chicken was amazing), enchilada, sample special nachos. The food was hot and plentiful. Staff was attentive to the table without being overly checking in. My husband ordered the Big Burrito and it was full of shredded chicken (nos scrimping here), rice and beans. Definitely check this place out.

    Friendly service, a large variety of food,room for groups, warm complimentary tortilla chips, nice authentic music in the background, clean restrooms. What's not to like. I had the big burrito which was a wet burrito with tasty white meet chicken, beans, rice, and yes it was big! About a foot long and very filling. Our server (Stephanie) was attentive, helpful and wore a smile like she meant it! Thank you Stephanie. Our first visit was better than expected.

    Typical Mexican fare in a refurbished old Sagebrush location. Seemed like they just opened up; we visited during off hours mid day on a Monday. The staff were extra friendly with frequent albeit not perfectly coordinated service. The menus looked familiar, perhaps what's become a standard Mexican-American menu template. We ordered a bunch of stuff, from burritos to fish tacos. Everything came out tasting good and hot. The teens at our table ranked the seafood tacos and chimichangas top of class! Drinks were kept full, and beer was ice cold in a nice frosty glass. The folks serving seemed genuinely happy to have us as customers, always a nice feeling. We will visit again.

Since the Denver, NC location is closer, I decided to try it instead, and it was a big disappointment. The atmosphere was completely different: very quiet, nearly empty, low energy, and the staff seemed disengaged. I stood at the "please wait to be seated" sign for a few minutes without being acknowledged, and when a waiter finally came over, he acted annoyed--as if I was doing something wrong by waiting where the sign told me to. The food came out quickly, but the quality wasn't even close to what I'm used to. I ordered quesabirria tacos, which I had recently at the other location and couldn't stop thinking about. This version was missing the dipping consommé entirely and came with a bland onion-and-cilantro water instead. The tacos looked similar but clearly weren't prepared the same way, and the flavor just wasn't there. To top it off, the waiter claimed this was the "better location," which made the experience even more frustrating. Between the weak atmosphere, awkward service, and disappointing food, this location doesn't live up to the others. I won't be back to this one.

As we got close I saw it was attached to a gas station and we we a bit sceptical but decided to give it a try. So glad we did because it was delicious. We had 2 orders of chicken fajitas and a chicken quesadilla. To start, the chips we're super fresh and the salsa was delicious. They also served it with a dish of refried beans and melted cheese but the beans weren't completely mushy there were still actual beans in the dish and quite surprised to have something like that but very thankful as it was very good. Very authentic and very friendly staff. The tortillas are definitely handmade in-house and the chicken was very tender and they give you a generous amount. In fact you can probably just order the one person fajitas for two people if you order the two person you better be really hungry. My son had the chicken quesadilla and it was monstrous and size and very good as well. I would definitely come back here and this is a place where you don't judge a book by its cover.
