This has been our go-to Mexican restaurant for years. It seems as though COVID and staffing shortages have hit them hard so... we?ve been worried and haven?t eaten at the restaurant (they don?t have a liquor license right now). We ordered togo the othernight and it was perfect. Seriously, I usually have a weird order because I?m a vegetarian and they nailed it! Everything wasdelicious. People just need to be patient and kind when eating here, again they don?t have full staff but they are trying!! Read more
Service was good, but food was only ok. I had the number 6 (one taco, one enchilada, with rice and refried beans) the tacos were... very bland, so were the enchiladas, but the beans and rice were good. Read more
I should not have stayed since we got a bad impression walking in; dark, smelly, and very dirty. Food was very expensive for the... small portions, food also took over 45 minutes and the meat was burned I could barely chew it, it was like chicharron and notfresh. No water or refills. Waiter was ok. Read more
Affordable but disappointingly average food. The waitstaff came off unfriendly, the atmosphere was unwelcoming and dark, the... establishment is not romantic and definitely not a place for a date. The bar was closed off by them piling up chairs in front ofit and turning the lights off. It was disturbing. I had the burrito Cancun which was filled with crab meat and overcooked shrimpand scallops, the nacho cheese sauce was tasty and hit the spot, but the burrito was suppose to have a ranch sauce on it, butinstead came out with a brown fajita type sauce on it. The dish also came with no sides besides the guacamole and lettuce, so ifyou want rice and beans that will need to be ordered seperately. The food was small, disappointing, and didn't come out asordered. The combo #6 had a small enchilada that was like a 6-in tortilla and not very stuffed, the taco was average, had nosour cream or tomato and was just substandard. There are plenty of other better restaurants to order from. Read more
This was just your every day Mexican restaurant. The menu items were confusing even though there were descriptions. And many of... the entrees did not come with beans and rice, which I thought was weird. I ordered the fajitas and the meat was served flat andthin and not pre-cut. It was very difficult to cut with the butter knife that was provided. Service was poor and our waiterovercharged me for food I didn't ask for. Read more
Good service , free chip refill and horchata refill. Food came out hot and delicious, not too long of a wait with the beautiful... outdoor seating. Lovely Mexican place for a great place Read more
Not sure about some of the negative reviews on here at all. This place was amazing. Stopped in for lunch with my wife while in... Charleston for a VA appointment. The place was very clean, the server was amazing and very attentive. Food was great along withthe prices and portions. Not sure where else you can get the Texas Fajitas for only $16 anymore! Wonderful experience and willbe back Read more
