The restaurant presents a divided experience, with some patrons applauding fresh, flavorful dishes and attentive service, even during peak hours. Diners rave about the generous portions and authenticity, setting it apart in the local landscape. However, others express dissatisfaction with long wait times for food and subpar meals, citing issues like dryness and excessive salt. Concerns also arise over questionable cleanliness and the misleading nature of drink offerings. While some vow to return, others advise against dining here. Overall, it seems this establishment has room for improvement amid glimpses of potential.

Worst Mexican food in the county of Nevada, there wouldn't even be a star.. Not to mention, they have no actual fleet license (only beer and wine) that would be good.. But they advertise A margarita on their menu and serve you a $7.00, practically Virgin Margarita (half a shot of 25% Tequila and the rest Mixer), and not informing you about the served, and questioned. I'm not a snob, but I want to be quite for what I get or order.. Do NOT buy a margarita!!!! I had to ask what I even drank. I'm also sorry people work in this facility. But I never had tasty Mexican food in my life anymore. And the bathrooms were not properly cleaned, the floors were stickers as conceivable. perhaps also on fly paper (i.e. they use the same water over and above). No paper towels, TP was out. And honestly, I recommend that no one else interferes. $70.00 for mediocre services, 3 plates of food (one is a plan beans and cheese burrito,

I 'm not a snob but i want to be charged fairly for what I get or order.. SO DO NOTbuy a margarita!!!!! I had to ask what I was even drinking.. I 'm sorry too the people that work at this establishment. But Ihave never had more tastless Mexican food in my life. And the bathrooms were not cleaned properly, the floors were sticker thanimaginable.. might as well have been walking on fly paper (meaning they use the same water over and over). No paper towels, TPwas out. And honestly, I recommend that nobody even bother. $70.00 for mediocre services, 3 plates of food(one being a planbean and cheese burrito,

Fresh tasting food, quick service despite it being a busy time. Tastes were distinctive, not just canned sauces. Portion was big for Mole, OK for combo plate. Servers were observant and helpful. Better than Maya's, so it's the best Mexican food around here.we will be back, and pretty often.

Awesome food. Service was great. Beer is cold. Not much more you can ask for. Management very friendly

40 minutes from seating to food. Long wait for a tea refill, the waitress was nice but not apologetic at all for the wait (no it want slammed, about 1/3 full in the main room. I got the mixtapes fajitas, shrimp was excellent, steak was tasty but a bit dryand salty, and the chicken was inedible. My significant other will still get the nachos as a tasty takeout but I will notreturn. $40 for 2 people, subpar food, and a 40 minute wait.
