    Service was excellent. Food was fresh and delicious. Just missing seasoning in the mixed veggies. Kudos for the table side guacamole prep.

    Restaurant is cute with a good vibe. Table side guacamole was excellent and service was friendly and prompt. I also loved the chicken tortilla soup. It was full of chicken and delicious making it hearty enough to be a meal by itself. All in all, a fun night out with great tasting food.

    Disappointed in the service. It was slow and when the meals came out half the food did not match our orders. We then waited another 15 or 20 minutes to have the right meals served. While half the table waited for the other half to be served their meals went cold. Overall the experience was less than expected

    Food was not great. Ending up sending my meal back, as I could not eat it. Only thing that was decent was the salsa.

    We were seated at the time of our reservation. Server greeted us - taking our drink order (unaware of beers on tap) - later correcting order. Appetizer ordered and served quickly. We waited for our meals for approx 45-60 mins. Server did take another drink order. The server did apologize for the delay - thanking us for our patience. The manager stopped by the table shortly after our arrival to welcome us.

    My parents, my daughter and I all enjoyed a delicious dinner. The table side guacamole was fresh and tasty. The fish tacos had a large amount of grouper cooked to perfection. The Tex-Mex tacos had great flavor. The waitress was friendly and the manager stop by to make sure everything was up to our satisfaction. We will come back again.

    Nice place. Good service. Food was just ok. Queso Fundido was bland. Pastor tacos were little off and cold. Someone needs to monitor preparation and quality of food coming out of the kitchen. We will give it a another chance.

    I chose the restaurant for its location. The table side guacamole was fantastic, but the entrees lacked. The meat in the tacos and burrito was a bit dry. Alas, we made the best of it with the sauces and guacamole. Gathering with friends that we rarely see was our priority.

    We ordered margaritas and 3 entrees. The el Diablo margaritas were not spicy at all; all I could taste was the generic sour mix. The Grouper tacos smelled as if the fish had been in the sun for 4 days and then cooked. Manager took it back and brought a different meal. Taco salad was fine however they forgot to bring the dressing. The chicken and shrimp fajitas were not sizzling when they came out and tasted like they were sitting under a heat lamp for a period of time. Everything about our visit was mediocre at best. For the amount paid and the quality of the service and food, we will not be returning.

    Went there for the first time last night, just me and my husband. The food was delicious, the service fast and friendly. The extensive tequila choices was mind blowing. Will go back there again.
