    The restaurant had a sewerage stench. The stench was so bad that me and party had to leave and find food somewhere else.

    Service was slow. It was seven of us and only four got their food. When we got our food, it was cold. The chips tasted like they had been out for a very long time. It was a packed house and only two people in the kitchen and two waiters. I won’t be back.

    The chips served as we sat were stale and we had to ask for freshly cooked ones. The guacamole we ordered more more along the lines of pico de gallo and we didn’t see any of the jalapeños or cactus that was mentioned in the recipe on the menu. We were the only diners in the place at 7pm and they were “sold out” of the famous Coca-Cola tacos. Lastly, neither bathroom had paper towels. We had high hopes for this restaurant but were disappointed.

    Place was nice, with a nice ambiance. But the food was bad, I’m mean really bad. No flavor, no seasoning. It taste and smelled like the boiled the steak. The corn even tasted plain. The waitress was nice.
