"Took someone out for their birthday (daughter) had a great waiter, food ( tacos) was amazing , clean inside and good place for the family. The tip was added into bill , our waiter was so nice, had to give a extra tip."

"One of my go-to places for Mexican food with my sisters. We had fajitas (steak & shrimp), beef enchiladas, calamari, cheese dip and guacamole. Everything this was pretty good. However I was a little disappointed with the guacamole. It didn't taste as good as the other times we've visited. Which is the only reason for rating it 4 stars on the food."

- ML M.

"The food was delicious very favorable but I ordered the 3 meat fajitas chicken, steak and shrimp as you see in the pictures where is the steak. Now the Flautas was great my first time having it. The refried beans and rice was real good and favorable. The drinks was ok but I love the Atmosphere and the service was wonderful."

"This restaurant has always provided me great service, whether I am dining in or taking out. It's also on the ambient side of design and decor. This was my f irst time having Chimichanga. My order was filled with beef, beans and cheese. It was quite good ... yum! I also love a good Chile Relleno and Asada always gets it right! My husband enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa."

- Beverly C.

"The food and drinks were very good..! We had a couple of appetizers, the tortilla soup and the ceviche. The Rumrita was weak and mostly ice, do not recommend. The blue curacao margarita and the pina colada drinks were excellent. The flan was very good. Our server was a bit lacking, kept forgetting and ignoring us, flagged down a different server and they brought out our requests asap..."
