Food: Generous portions that lack zest

The Cheese Enchilada Plate delivers size over substance, while the Albondigas Soup and Chicken Tortilla Soup have moments of brilliance but often fail to impress with their flavor or freshness, leaving diners wondering if a trip to the grocery store may have sufficed.

  • Great Variety

    Extensive, diverse menu with wide variety of Mexican cuisine and specialties.

  • Okay Portions

    Portions generally large, but perception varies with individual appetite.

  • Low Quality

    Ingredients often not fresh, with frozen meals and bland, tasteless options.

Vibe: Dimly lit and quieter than expected

The ambiance at this establishment leans heavily towards the uncomfortable with dim lighting, making menu navigation a challenge. Honestly, a Saturday night visit can feel like a ghost town, which isn’t the lively vibe patrons typically seek in a dining experience.

  • Okay Buzz

    Busy but not overflowing, appeals to different tastes.

  • Bad Aesthetic

    Dim lighting too extreme, leading to discomfort and practical menu-reading issues.

Perks: Large groups find their spot easily

Service is attentive, and the restaurant caters well to large groups, ensuring everyone feels considered. Despite some parking challenges, the ease of table availability enhances the experience for those dining with family or friends, making the potential wait worth it.

  • Great Speed

  • Okay for Kids

    Nice for families, but can be loud and crowded at times.
