We decided to embark on a little culinary adventure and stopped by this lively spot for happy hour,…read moreeager to sample what this location had to offer. As soon as we entered, we were greeted by the warm and inviting ambiance that's common in many Midwest restaurants, with rustic charm and a welcoming vibe. We were promptly checked in and seated at a cozy table that gave us a perfect view of the bustling restaurant. Our server, Monica, immediately made an impression with her friendly demeanor and genuine enthusiasm for the menu. With so many tempting options, we took a little time to peruse, and she patiently guided us through the extensive selections, recommending some of her personal favorites. We decided to kick things off with a couple of refreshing drinks; I chose the rich and robust Negra Modelo while my girlfriend opted for the smooth and crisp Victoria. Both drinks perfectly set the tone for a fantastic evening ahead. As for the food, it surpassed our expectations. I ordered the carne asada, and let me tell you, it was absolutely divine--a medley of flavors that danced on my palate! The steak was perfectly grilled, tender, and well-seasoned, served with a side that complemented it beautifully. My girlfriend chose the chimichangas, which were nothing short of a culinary masterpiece. Crisp on the outside and bursting with savory goodness on the inside, she was more than pleased with her choice. The portion sizes were nothing short of gigantic, and the generous helpings made it clear that this place doesn't hold back when it comes to satisfying their guests. We quickly filled our plates and savored every last bite, knowing we might have to roll ourselves out of there by the end of our meal! Throughout our time there, Monica continued to shine. She was remarkably attentive, ensuring that our drinks were refilled promptly and checking in to make sure we were enjoying everything. Her warm service added a personal touch that made our experience even more enjoyable. One of the great bonuses is the ample parking available in front of the restaurant, which is always a plus. Additionally, there's a shopping center next door where you can pick up groceries at Aldi or grab some liquor at Merwin's. It's the perfect spot to round off the evening or stock up on essentials. Overall, our visit was a delightful experience filled with delicious food, refreshing drinks, and outstanding service. This place has certainly earned a spot on our go-to list for future outings!

We had to ask for multiple times before we got them, and it seemed like the staff just kept forgetting us. Prices are OK.

This is located in a strip mall with tons of free parking! Walking up there were a few tables that were outside, in the shade!

No. I like a good meaty taco, but these had some fatty bits, just not my preference. The consume, was very tasty and I liked the lime wedge and onions/cilantro on the side so I could add as much or as little as I wanted. They had 3 spicy sauces and they all had a good flavor!

The salsa here was very garlicky which I don't mind, but others may. I got the lunch fajitas. The chicken was very rubbery and had a lot of very hard, inedible chunks. There weren't any spices on the chicken or fajita veggies which made it taste charred from sitting on the hot dish. Service 4/5: there only seemed to be one person working, so it took him awhile to get to us. The food came out relatively quick, but if you're in a rush this may not be the best lunch spot. Ambiance 3/5: we sat on the side that was more open and it was cold, it felt like we were sitting outside. We all kept our jackets on. Overall, this place could use some improvements.

It was cold and the cheese was still shredded pieces. They didn't even bother to melt the cheese. I called and they asked me to bring it back. I have flown in from out of state and exhausted so I wasn't about to go back. I'm hoping it's a one off. I will try again with just the taco and see if it was just a bad cook.
