Super happily surprised! Our server Sally was fast and fantastic. All her recommendations were delicious. My husband and I had the asada and fish taco plate. The guacamole was super yummy! Loved it!!

I’m disappointed last night the cover was $30 which was full so partly justified but still high Drinks were avg $16-17 and usually one good drink has me feeling good and 2 real good but I drank 2 like they were water and felt nothing. You could hardly taste the alcohol and at first I thought it was just a great mix but later I realized it has lil to no alcohol

Was not happy with my first and last visit. For one they would not seat us until our whole party was here, it was my aunts 83rd birthday, she should be able to sit considering the restaurant was not busy yet and the tables were empty. The waiter was adamant about not splitting the checks for the party of 19 (we could have even split it into two tables and he would have received the automatic gratuity. Cocktails are weak considering the price. The food was pricier than I prefer for a group setting and we didn't even get complimentary chips and salsa. My steak fajitas came out and the food was cold (beans already starting to dry up)....I've never had a fajita plate come out and not be sizzling with a warning about a hot plate. I returned my food stating it was cold and the plate came back a few minutes later and it was still cold. Some of the table received food while others were waiting on their plates, there was no consistency to making sure hot food came out to everyone about the same time. One of the children ordered a taco plate and what was served wasn't what he ordered....the server proceeded to argue with the mother saying he knows what the child ordered and if he wants something else he could place an additional order which she would be charged for and that it would take an additional 30 minutes for the tacos to come out because they are busy. I have worked in the service industry and never argued with a customer or told them they needed to pay for their mistake and that the time to make it would be 30 minutes...it's tacos, not a steak. Finally when the bill came the waiter accommodated us by taking multiple payments but after each card was swiped he said no tip and then proceeded to give himself a 5 star rating which could not be retracted. I don't believe in the server being able to rate himself more so in this situation when everyone had a complaint about the service. We are known for tipping above and beyond even on top of automatic gratuity but server only received the built in tip. If you want good tacos go down the street to Tios.

I would like to give 3 stars than 4! But in some way I thought it is not fair. Overall I can tell drinks here was good but the food was ok! We ordered chicken and asada tacos chips as starter. Here is good but definitely not very good! They are fast, they serve you quickly and politely. I liked the staff and of course Margaritas here! And it wasn’t cheap, 107 bucks for two! And they add %20 tip in the check!
