"Food was okay, but nothing special. The dishes we had weren't really authentic Mexican food, but I do not believe that's even their claim to fame. The restaurant was substantially larger than I had imagined, and it is probably more suited for larger groups than for a romantic dinner for two."

"It was good, not great. Some items were delicious (cheese appetiser), others just fair (black beans and refried beans that came with meals). Prices were reasonable for a downtown spot. Drinks looked large!Because there was a Cavs game the night we went, the only parking was the valet and it cost $15. Not worth $15 for parking - could deter me from going again. Otherwise, I would eat there again."

"This used to be one of my Mexican restaurants in the Cleveland area. While the food still remains good, the service is weak.

First off we did not receive the appetizer we ordered. Our main course was delivered and it dawned on the server we hadn't received our appetizer. So without asking us if we still wanted it, he bought it out to us. He did not even offer to comp it.

As for the main course, my choice of sauce was placed on my wife's enchilada and vice versa. We didn't complain because the food was still good. But ultimately you want what you ordered. Why, all of a sudden, do servers feel they don't need to write orders down?
