A Mexican house of horrors. I've never written a bad review about a restaurant before but a couple hours later and I'm still going WTF happened?! Firstly, the waitress breezed by and asked if we wanted chips and salsa. we all paused for a second in confusion because as everyone knows (especially me, a former mexican restaurant waitress and big mexican food fan) that's something that arrives automatically with no fanfare. However, before anyone can respond waitress chirps, OK- Great! and dashes off. Our first indication that she's padding the bill. Chips arrive. It's stale, recycled chips put back in the warmer and a little dish of salsa as in every mexican restaurant. We were charged $16. four dollars per person. Then she takes our order. I ask if we can get a side of avocado, they have no avocado- What?! How do you justify charging 20 bucks for a burrito, $12 for a miniature taco (think smaller and less stuffed than what you might get from taco bell) and not put any guacamole OR tomato in there? Most awesome of all...We were seated right next to the kitchen and could see the goings on in there. A giant box of Franzia was front and center and we watched the waitstaff filling glasses of wine with them. There was no Franzia on the menu. After half an hour of said waitress stopping by to try to get us to buy more drinks and simultaneously telling us "just ten more minutes," my husband and I thought it would be funny to order 'a glass of Franzia.' Waitress takes the order, skips off, talks to the manager (who has been speed walking around the restaurant like a deranged person but doing nothing of importance) then comes back and tells us they don't sell Franzia but they do sell something called Mountain blah blah for $9 a glass. MMMHHHHMMM. I still got it out pf boredom. Over an hour later our one year old is hating the complete lack of atmosphere/ music/non fluorescent lighting as are we. I manage to track down waitress and ask her for the food to go. Since she didn't offer ANY apologies or information about why it took 60 plus minutes to get some obviously pre made tacos on a plate, I thought I'd ask for my own edification- so I said, very non-confrontationally, "Is it usually this backed up around here?" One word answer, "Yes," sashays away. This chick served us $16 dollar used chips we didn't order, lied to our faces and least 5 times over the course of an hour and couldn't even acknowledge that it was crazy that we waited that long for our food. Being a former waitress I'm all about not placating bad customers but we never complained ONCE, not even when we realized was getting a nine dollar glass of Franzia. And finally, a note on the food: The salsa was some kind of ketchup mixture, the rice was old and stale, the chicken in our tacos was exactly the cubed size and consistency of what we feed our cats, the beans were cold (probably not thawed all the way.) There was literally nothing good about the dinner that we finally took home to our hotel that night. read more
