  I also have been eating in this restaurant for at least 20 years. I have always loved the people and the food. Unfortunately I have been disappointed the last few times. Salsa as a sauce is lazy, the evening manager is more attentive to chatting with his staff than the restaurant. The friendly attentive manager and family recipes are missing. I understand covid caused horrible harm to these independent family run businesses. It may take a while to bring back the customers, but changing what worked and was a favorite in Hemet is not the way to do it.

  This used to be a great restaurant it used to be family owned. My husband and I have been going to this particular place for many years. We were astounded when all of a sudden, the quality of everything just hit the floor and after today’s visit has remained on the floor and we will never go back. I am sorry to say this we know the people and we’ve known them for years. Very sad day for that restaurant dated today.

  This is a preliminary evaluation, as it's my first time here. Ok I was there for a karaoke night n it is also is taco night. I had a duet Pepsi not sure about the flavor in the lg. Plastic cup for 4. and 2.00 taco which was the worst taco 🌮 ever to me. I was asked if I wanted tomato on it I said yes. Here is what I received ( sadly I ordered 2) hard 🐚, it was shredded beef that look like a table 🥄 worth of chewed gray meat, water lettuce filled to just about the top of the shell, a sprinkle of Mexican cheese, and oh the tomato was places gently on top in the middle it was the size of, as if you, sliced a cherry tomato 🍅. I requested sour cream and I ate. My body then proceeded to become a gas factory for about a hour. The customers enjoyed all the free entertainment of the singers. Several family groups were in attendance. I don't know how the rest of the food is. Most of the staff didn't look happy to be there except for just the one female waitress who smiled when greeting customer. I might go back one day as our karaoke options r limited in our area, sadly. ( Good karaoke 🎤 I mean ).
