    Had the carne asada, cooked to perfection, seasoned beautifully, the rice has a tasty tang and the veggies complete the dish so well. I loved every bite and I want more.

    Had a great experience here on New Year’s Day. The food was delicious and the service from our waiter, Tyler, was excellent.

    Great food. Try the Guac. Either tableside or made in back is excellent. I had the brisket taco with the spicy avocado dressing on the side, but ended up just putting more guacamole on it instead. Delish! Coworker had a shrimp rice bowl and she loved it. She had a traditional margarita and I had the tropical margarita, both were made perfect. Lots of parking but be aware there is a Chillis restaurant literally next door sharing a parking lot.

    only reason why it’s 3 and not 5 is because they changed the chips. PLEASE ON THE BORDER BRING BACK THE OLD CHIPS IM BEGGING YOU THEY ARE MY LIFE.
