I’ve ordered the El Grande Asada Burrito three times now and it has been outstanding! Well seasoned beef, with good proportions of rice, beans, and guacamole. Their house made chips and salsa came complimentary with my take out order; adding to the overall value of my meal! If you get the chance, come in for their lunch specials!

This place has been a staple in the area and I go back here every 3 months for a meal maybe it’s the nostalgia but, we grew up eating here for special occasions when living in the area. Margaritas are always great love the tequila selection and the food is always delicious. Price point is good as well so overall 4 out of 5 stars

I love their food, is very generous and fair price.
I wish they always had music in the background, before last time it was way too quiet for my preference.
I think i enjoyed more the mango margarita vs the peach one.
Staff is friendly, food comes out fast and their complementary chips and salsa are delicious!!!

We ordered the Fiesta Mexico mix platter and it was very fulfilling. We had orchatas and flan and it was tasty. Is not a fancy place but we enjoyed our time there. They also have a bar at the front and the restaurant at the back, in addition to a small events room (anniversary was taking place). Our server was a man, top notch!

Great prices and service! Not sure how I never knew of this place and the awesome waiter told me it had been there since 1984. I had a wet vegetarian burrito and it was so filling! Love their two salsas. The green one had a nice kick.

I had been here years ago and was not that impressed, but this time was different. They had a great selection, prices were not bad, food was very tasty, people were friendly, and the only minus was the wait for a table and for the food. It was Father’s day (night) though, so maybe this is not normal.

The food was so tasty that I worry that it must not be very healthy, but so what. 🙂

I came here by accident and it was certainly a mistake. The food was not very good, especially the nachos…My nacho’s were smothered in what tasted and looked like “Taco Bell sauce”. As anyone would figure, the nachos were soggy before they were even halfway finished. Gross! It was extremely disappointing and the carne asada was not even noticeable as a topping amongst the thick layer of refried beans that also smothered the chips on the plate. I’ve included a picture of the mess. The picture below is after two bites/chips were taken from the meal. The whole thing looks more like lasagna than it does nachos. It’s too bad it didn’t taste like lasagna though. Maybe then I would have eaten it all.

Service was mas menos. We were seated quickly and our orders were taken and arrived quickly. After that the service wasn’t great. I asked to split the bill (between me and my coworker) when our orders were being taken. The waitress said “No problem.” After waiting around (being passed by numerous times without being checked on by the waitress) for about 15 minutes after eating, I finally flagged her down to get our checks so that we could get back to work. I gave her my card (for my meal) and she charged everything to my card even though we asked for a split bill at the beginning. The splitting of the check is not such a big deal but it is still part of the “service” experience and we were late at getting back to work.

*Bonus content* I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or not, but about 2 hours after lunch I was in the bathroom with a bad stomach ache that didn’t go away until later that evening. Don’t make the same mistake that I did. There are two Mexican restaurants that have similar names. This one is the wrong place. Go to the “female gender”named restaurant which is:

“La Tapatia”
^^^that’s the right place and you won’t be disappointed or sick to your stomach.

Our first visit and was totally satisfied! My son had the carné asada super burrito smothered with mole and cheese. I had the chilaquiles with scrambled eggs and chorizo. So, so good! The horchata was perfect too.
