    This place is a hit or miss. With the food and service. One day the food might be delicious and service is what it should be, other days staff tries to add items on your receipt and charge you for things you never ordered or received. But not even in a normal accidental way, I recall when I went to pay, the total the screen showed me I was paying for my to go order was $11.70, that's the amount I had approved my pay for, by the time I got home the charge changed to nearly 15$ , I was refunded for the extra dollars taken, however, that was blatant foul play. For may 5th, I ordered tacos to go, I switched the beans to salad and got charged double for the switch (which should've been free) and didn't even receive my rice. I didn't bother driving back or even calling them about their mistake because with their to go orders its always something wrong if you ask for anything changed. The portions are much smaller than before, chicken quesadillas use to be done with a half of a full chicken breast, now done with 1 tablespoon of shredded chicken . They fail their to go items more than any other places I have frequented. The stealing a tip one and protecting the girl whom did it is what did it for me. I urge everyone to check what they are paying for before they pay. Table service is weird, when I have gone with younger folks , they come by the table often and make sure everything is good, yet the time I went with a much older person, we were ignored , lacked refills and so on. Sometimes food is lacking seasonings these days too. I am writing this to warn those in the area about poor services. Because had I known all of this, I would've never eaten there to begin with, considering there are tons of equally mediocre Mexican restaurants all around us. But only in this one have I been stolen from. This is not all of the staff there, there are like 3 really wonderful, trustworthy decent people there, just careful with the rest .
