    Just found out that they have new corporate owners. They changed the food and it's not the same. None of us were happy with the changes. The food quality has gone down so much that I doubt i will ever go back.

    The new owners of the restaurant made some big mistakes. It was the worst chicken fajita I've ever seen. It look like somebody grilled a plain unseasoned chicken breast and cut it in slices and place it on top of some lightly grilled onions on a cold plate no Peppers at all and no seasoning and the chicken wasn't even moist. I sent it back and got something else. And the refried beans tasted terrible
