Food: Dazzling culinary mixed bag

It was like playing Russian roulette with the menu. One minute you're biting into the comfort of the perfectly seasoned Potato Tacos, the next you're met with the stale taste of ingredients that lack freshness. Even the Chicken Enchilada, which appears promising with its terrific green sauce, can't hide its dry chicken. You can't deny the generous portions, value for money and vast variety, somehow managing to hit and miss in one fell swoop.

Vibe: Depressing, outmoded ambiance

Stepping into the restaurant was like time traveling to an era of outdated decor, juxtaposed by the modern day inconvenience of limited parking. The ambiance felt as stale as some of their ingredients, seemingly untouched by the concept of spring cleaning. Even the excessive crowd seemed more like a horde seeking asylum than a happy bunch of diners.

  • Bad Ambiance

    Outdated decor and sometimes dirty ambiance negatively impacts experience.

Perks: Parking nightmare and slow service

Finding a parking spot near the restaurant was like participating in a mad scavenger hunt where everyone loses. The outdoor conditions matched the chaos of a crowded fish market more than a dining escape. And if the staff's disdain for their job was contagious, everyone would have been ill rather than just discontent.

  • Okay For Groups

    Plenty of seating, though busy at times, still enjoyable.

  • Bad Service

    Rude staff and slow service recurrently tarnish the dining experience.
