Big portions, fast service and great pricing. Try their Magaritas and a Presidente platter! The fajitas were good and enough to share for 2. We liked our waiter Matt.

Reading some of three views I think we expected the food to have more spice and flavor. The waiter was fantastic and made great suggestions for our vegetarian options. The food was good and they kept topping up the chips and salsa.

Service was good as was the food. Rice and beans were tasty. Served a generous amount of chips with a creamy dip which was quite tasty. Everything was fresh and enjoyed by my three guests and myself.

The food and drinks were great, the restaurant allows smoking and that really took away from the meal ( for me anyway), YMMV Friendly staff, great atmosphere.

very good food, ..especially the specials...but they really need to upgrade their gluten free menu to make a better selection for those who have gluten issues... also need to upgrade the chips they serve for those with gluten issues..otherwise a great restaurant!
