- BBBryNov 15, 20253.0Baby Hay Caramba was cold but really tasty. They didn't have Arroz Con Pollo but they did have something similar and it was delicious. The burrito was not very hot when it came out. Some spots were fairly warm and others not so much. If the service wasn't so good and the room temperature burrito didn't taste so damn good it would've gotten less of a rating. That being said if the food was hot and was prepared as ordered it would've gotten a better review. I will give it another try not so close to closing and see if it's any better.
- TCTodd CalderNov 14, 20255.0I picked this restaurant because it looked so good and was literally on our way home. Firstly I watch on occasion eating videos on YouTube . Before I walked in I had no idea they had a challenge or that a personal favorite from YouTube had once been there. Just a fun coincidence. The man in charge talked to my dad about their quesobirria taco he was just so helpful. My father stuffed all that food somehow inside his small frame . He was in a word “Satisfied “. I had their steak fajitas, which were delicious. The meat was so tender. The peppers tasted so good. Lots of delicious seasoning. The tortillas were perfect and came in the best little sombrero tortilla warmer. I just loved it. Before I forget the chips and salsa that come before your meal I have no idea why but my father and I both thought that the salsa just tasted fantastic. Again, the man in charge, friendly, helpful, informative our waitress, super fun, absolutely attentive. I just can’t say enough good things.

- NNnoodlenogginOct 21, 20255.0My wife and I walked down for dinner, and had an enjoyable time and tasty taco plates. First of all, if you're not getting your tacos Mexican-style with onion and cilantro, why aren't you just going to Taco Bell? Anyway. My wife's shrimp tacos were reportedly good enough that she did not offer a bite. Of my three tacos, the carnitas were passable but dry; the al pastor was good but not outstanding; the barbacoa was juicy and bursting with flavor - the clear standout on my plate. The beans and the rice were both solid, the salsa was flavorful, and my wife reported that her margarita did not skimp on the jet fuel. In my opinion, El Mariachi redeemed themselves from my previous visit, when I had a taste for pedestrian American-style tacos, and the ground beef was plain, dry unseasoned hamburger. Just don't do this.
