It has a spacious interior with a large bar and offers fantastic specialty drinks every evening. The menu is quite extensive, and I highly recommend trying the ceviche, fajitas, chimichangas, and quesadillas. Their margaritas may be small, but they pack a punch! You’ll find booth seating at the front and individual chairs towards the back. There’s plenty of parking available when you arrive, and the staff is friendly, attentive, and the food is served quickly. They often show baseball or football games on TV. It’s a family-friendly, quiet place perfect for any occasion.

The food is excellent! They offer a vegetarian option on the menu. The staff is very friendly, and the atmosphere is cozy. The margaritas are fantastic! read more The food is excellent!

Our waitress was friendly and provided great service, even managing separate checks with ease. The food came out exactly as ordered—hot and exceptionally tasty. I tried the chicken tacos, which were tender and packed with flavor, complemented by very fresh toppings. The rice was also delicious. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meals, making for another enjoyable visit.

No flavor at all. Refried beans were old very dry crusty on top of beans. The rice was also old or way over cooked. The tortilla wrap was also old. Actually it was hard all around the edges. I was not expecting any of this. It’s a shame to offer lunch when no one really else in the building and not provide quality food. Felt like everything was stale and leftover. Thought we would get a good experience because it was slow, but just not the case.
