I ordered the half-pound mushroom cheeseburger with fries and chicken tortilla soup, while my friend had the Carne asada plate; overall, the meal was good with great service, though the soup had too much cilantro for my taste. The burgers are big and flavorful, and the chips and salsa are exceptional, making it a solid choice when in town. The staff is friendly and attentive, creating a welcoming atmosphere that makes me want to return and try more from the diverse menu.

I ordered a 1/2 lb mushroom cheeseburger with fries and chicken tortilla soup, while my friend opted for the Carne asada plate. The meal was satisfying and the service was friendly, although the soup had an overwhelming amount of cilantro. The atmosphere was decent with sports TVs, and I'll definitely return to explore more menu options, as the food was good overall, and the chips and salsa were exceptional.

We've been coming here since I was a kid. The atmosphere is great. Their Margaritas are the very best ..... and I know my Margaritas ;-) The portions are great and we never leave hungry. Service is always friendly. We've had a few less than perfect experiences there, but nothing more than you'd encounter anywhere else. Servers are human and everyone has an off day once in a while. They decorate for the holidays and my son loves going around Christmas just for that. Everything is priced reasonably. Taco Tuesday is awesome and.I frequently go there with friends on Tuesdays to get a nice night out with friends for just a few $. Their jalapeño poppers are great too fyi. And we buy their chips and salsa to use for our home events like BBQs and birthday parties. It's consistently a hit.

I don't think I've ever had a bad meal there and my family and I eat there quite a bit. Love the fish tacos! The Street tacos and the carnitas are good as well. One of my favorites is the chicken enchiladas verde. The wait staff has always been efficient and friendly.

Wow this was bad.

At any given moment, there was no one avalible on the floor, they would just seem to disapear.

Add bad service, burned food, and dishsoap flavored lemonade that actually gave my daughter the runs........

I was unfortunatelly in a bit of a hurry, so I didn't have time to wait around to complain, besides the issues that I brought to the waitstaff didn't seem to matter to them.

BTW if you still go here, don't order the Chicken Bites app. it is nothing more than a couple of chicken strips and fries (like a fng kids meal!) and arrived after the main meal was served.

The sirlon was overcooked, fatty and tough.

The fahitas were burned.

no one in my party actually finished the food, we started to take it home for leftovers, but ended up pulling over at a 7-11 to buy candy bars to get the flavor out of our mouth. (we threw the containers out at 7-11)

As for price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I spent a $140 dollars (including a 10 percent tip...don't even know why I left it) for 5.........I could have gone to Outback for that.

When I called the manager the next day to complain (I didn't have the time to spend that night) she said sorry, and stated that she would take care of us if we came back.......like that was going to happen.

She offered no real compensation, even after bieng informed of my daughters condition.
