  Cold food and bad attitudes. Twice I have brought my son there and gotten bad service and served cold food. I politely told our server who said he’d have it remade. When we finally got our food back it was the same food they took and the Birria was splattered all over it where it had been sloshed in transit. Reheating it made its soggy mess. When I mentioned it to our server he got an attitude and said it was the kitchens fault not his problem. Even though he said it would be remade it was the same food. Then he decided to argue with me in a less than pleasant tone. When I informed the girls at the front they thought it was funny and knew exactly who I was talking about. My son was starving and ate most of his so I paid for that. It’s obviously a normal occurrence if they find humor in it.

  Beautiful place. I've been coming for months but today wasn't good. Food took forever, half the food came out room temp, and it wasn't busy. DIssappointed. I will hit other Mexi places before I return.

  We had a great time here and the service was solid, but the food was a bit of a letdown. The flavors just weren't quite there compared to other spots in the area. It’s a fun environment for a night out with a group, but the dishes could definitely use more seasoning.

  The restaurant is a newer building, very clean, and nice. We were there with a group of 20 plus. There was some confusion when it came to ordering as the server's struggled as they had other tables besides ours so not all orders went in at the same time and in return several had to wait longer for their food, leaving a couple very unhappy. However the food was Hot and delicious. This was also Thursday evening and Bingo night, they got busy fast during the time our food orders were placed..If you don't want to wait for your food or a loud atmosphere I suggest you pick a different day. My husband and I will return but earlier or on a different day.

  We were very excited to check out the new building. Went on a Thursday night, which I will NEVER do again though. They have bingo on Thursdays, and beware, it is so loud in there you can't even hear yourself think or have a half decent conversation without trying to lip read or screaming "WHAT?" every few seconds to whomever you are talking to. Besides calling out the bingo numbers, they do have a screen that they post the numbers on, but they also play music at such an extreme volume, then the loudness of the microphone he calls the numbers out on, that it is just a sensory nightmare. Everyone in our group complained and could not wait to get out of there. Besides that, the food was good. I had the birria pizza quesadilla and it was pretty good and the consome was flavorful. They had some decent deals for alcoholic drinks, but paying $4 for a coke is a little extreme. Then the waitress had so many tables that it took a while to get refills (and the tortillas that they did not bring out with any of the fajitas ordered before the plate was almost finished so the food didn't get cold, or to hold up eating, since after being there so long we needed to get away from all the noise). Then we sat waiting for at least another half hour while the waitress got our check to us. I might try going back on a night with no activities, but honestly, there are a bunch of other Mexican Restaurants that I have enjoyed better for the ambiance and value for what you get.
