    I love visiting this restaurant. It's just so sad that they branch near my location closed due to business decisions. Now I need to visit the other location that takes 25-30mins to drive for a glads of Mangonada. 🥰🥲

    Fine eatery. You get allot of food for your money. Not all that unique, but its above average quantity for going out to eat.

    First time trying this place out and it wasn’t anything special compared to other Mexican Restaurants but for me the service wasn’t great at all. The server wasn’t active during are time there and it took a while to get are check as well the tip I gave wasn’t what I saw when the charge went through. I called about this a who I spoke to was nice but the refund never went through.
