The decor is vibrant, the music adds to the energy, and the overall vibe is welcoming and enjoyable. The standout for me was the chicken burrito special--it was huge and packed with flavorful ingredients. You definitely get your money's worth! The fresh guacamole was another highlight. It tasted freshly made, with just the right balance of avocado, lime, and seasoning. The food was delicious overall, but the pickup service was a little slower than expected during my visit when it was crowded, which is why I'm giving it four stars instead of five. Even so, I'd happily come back for the giant burritos and fresh guac. If you're craving satisfying Mexican food in a fun setting, this place is definitely worth checking out.

Decor is nice and this restaurant is clean and well cared for.

Unfortunately, that wasn't the experience we had this time around. The tacos were pretty soggy and lacked the texture that apparently made them stand out before. She even joked that they must've had a different cook working that day. The food wasn't bad, but it also didn't live up to the expectations that were set. The consommé was decent and the portions were generous, but overall the flavor was just average. If I were rating this visit alone, it would probably be closer to a 3/5. That said, I'm giving it a 4/5 because my girlfriend has had a much better experience here before and swears it's usually better than what we received. The other factor is the price. For a restaurant where you order at the counter, grab your number, and seat yourself, it feels a bit expensive for what you get. I'd be willing to give it another shot since it sounds like consistency may be the issue, but based on this visit, it didn't quite live up to the hype.

The portions were ok, and the margarita was large and refreshing and good actually, but I had to ask for it 3x, but the food itself was only okay. Nothing we ordered stood out enough to make us want to return. We sat down and it wasn't busy. 15 min later they came and took our order. The hostess that came to us first was attentive he was really the only one. The biggest disappointment was the customer service. Throughout our entire visit, there was very little attention from all staff. We rarely saw our server, drinks went unrefilled longer than they should have, and there was no effort to check in and see how our meal was. I never once was asked if I would like another margarita. Hospitality can make a huge difference, and unfortunately it was lacking here. This is huge for me in a sit down. The restaurant has a fun sports-bar atmosphere with plenty of TVs, but the restroom also needed attention and wasn't as clean as expected. Overall, not a terrible experience, but not one I'd go out of my way to repeat at all. There are too many great Mexican restaurants in the area for this one to make it back onto my regular rotation. Probably won't be returning at all.

Then I realized I pass it pretty often when leaving work, so when I was in the area with my family, we decided to finally stop in. The place looked pretty run-down when we walked in, and unfortunately the first impression didn't get much better. The person taking our order wasn't particularly welcoming or service-forward, and the table we sat at was noticeably sticky. While we were waiting, a friend of the owners came in and was loudly dropping plenty of profanity, which seemed to be perfectly welcome. Meanwhile, the same person who took our order was now in the back preparing our food. We tried the crunchy homestyle hard-shell tacos that seem to be the big thing online, along with a couple of street tacos. The food itself wasn't terrible. It was definitely on the greasy side, but there was some flavor there. I just wouldn't describe it as particularly authentic or something I would go out of my way for. For me, the bigger issue was the overall experience. The condition of the restaurant, the cleanliness of the table, and the general lack of attention to the customer experience all added up. Maybe we caught them on an off day, but based on this visit, I wouldn't go back or recommend it.

And I thought I'd try a taco since they looked good on the Yelp reviews. I ordered a fish taco. When I got my food, the taco was massive with tons of cabbage piled on, topped with a lot of crème and some salsa. But I liked it cos most places dont even put enough of it. When I bit into it, I was wondering why there were pieces and thought they cut up the fish (?) only to realize it was shrimp. The waitress must have misheard me when I ordered fish taco and gave me a shrimp taco. But I'm not complaining cos it was delicious. The shrimp was lighty battered, so you get the taste of the shrimp right away. You also get a slight crunch from the shrimp and it pairs well with the cabbage and sauce. This is a definite must order if you're craving tacos. Before I ate my taco, I made sure to put some lime on my ceviche to "cook" it a little bit with the acid because the shrimp is a little too "raw" for my liking. It also comes with tostada chips / shells. And I was also given a bottle of crema, hot sauce (?) and some sort of brown sauce (sorry I dont know what this is called but it's delicious!). Halfway thru my meal, I noticed the gentleman was served those Mexican pinwheel shaped chips. As I was paying, I asked the lady what he was eating. She said they're called chicharones de harina. I asked her if it's free or he ordered it. She said it's free and asked me if I wanted some to go. Service needs some improvement. Although the waitress did check on me from time to time, she never asked me for a water refill - and clearly my cup was empty. Also when I arrived, why was I not offered the chicharrones de harina and the gentleman in front of me got some right when he arrived. The ambiance was chill and quiet. There are 4 Tabs which I'm sure this place gets busy on game days. Definitely a place to check out for the ceviche.

When the food arrived, a different employee dropped it off, and the pozole was red pork pozole instead of the green chicken pozole we ordered. We immediately let that employee know the order was incorrect, and she took it back. A few moments later, our original waitress came to the table with an aggressive attitude and asked my wife, "So you want to switch your order from red to green?" This made it seem like we had changed our order rather than acknowledging that the wrong order had been taken in the first place. We explained that we had originally ordered the green pozole. She then told us that since we were "switching" it, it would take a while to make. When the green pozole finally arrived, she dropped the bowl on the table without making eye contact and walked away. The wait was so long that we had already finished the entire taco plate by the time the pozole arrived. We decided to just take the pozole to go. The waitress continued avoiding our table, so we eventually had to get up and walk to the counter to pay. When we asked for limes and onions to go with the green pozole, the owner informed us there would be an additional charge for each side. We paid, but the overall experience had already been soured. I told the owner about our experience, and while I was explaining what happened, the waitress with the neck tattoo walked by and laughed. I even pointed it out to the owner and said, "See, she's laughing about it right now." The owner said she would speak with the employee. After reading other reviews, it seems that poor customer service may be a recurring issue here. Mistakes happen, but the lack of accountability, poor attitude, and dismissive behavior turned a simple order mix-up into a very negative dining experience.
