Food was good. Our waitress was great. I will be going back again.
Excellent food, fresh, we order steak tacos and we had the order on less than 5 minutes, the server was very polite , when we asked for the check we were surprised with the price, after ordering 17 tacos 4 glases of fresh water and 1 chesecake for dessert we were charged with 42 dollars. We also used our coupon and ended up paying 36 dollars for all that.
The only problem is that only one waitress could speak English. Service was pretty quick; and the portion of fish I got on my order was HUGE ! We'll be going again.
Some more unusual choices on the menu compared to other Mexican in the area. Good sized portions. Neither waitress seemed to speak much English. This led to some confusion. But it is all part of the authentic Mexican experience.
The decor is a bit dayed, but staff and food more than made up for that.
The beans were straight out of a can, no flavor at all. The rice was tasteless as well. The ground beef was very good.
I think there was only one waiter and I took along time to get service
Food was very good, hot to the table, service was good, very attentive, it would have been a 5 but they were out of ice so our water was warm. It would have been helpful to have a cool drink to cool our throats with the spice of the salsa and the warm weather.
