We eat out quite a bit and enjoy trying places tucked away off the main path. They can be unique and surprisingly good so we love to give them a chance. Sometimes you find a gem but not this time, unfortunately. The lack of other clientele can be a clue, but not always, so we proceeded inside. The place is run down with broken and dirty windows but we still held out hope. As we were seated, the waitress asked what she could get us to drink. Efficient, but we thought we needed a minute to commune with the drink menu. It turns out there just aren 't that many choices. The margarita menu is limited and nondescript. A different server came to take our drink order so we asked for clarity. He was abrupt, waived his hand broadly over the menu and said, Any of those. Hmm, ok. LOL So we chose one and hoped for the best. They were ok, but we didn 't finish them. I got the vegetable enchiladas microwaved Costco mix with no seasoning in a tortilla covered in Velveeta, also with no seasoning, with a side of canned re fried beans. All very bland and lukewarm. I don 't recall exactly which plate my husband got but it was an indistinct and bland mix of things. Neither of us finished our meal because it just wasn 't worth it. Service continued to be bleak; we saw our server one more time when he tried to take my husband 's plate. The two servers stayed out of line of sight but could be heard visiting loudly from somewhere across the building. Bottom line, we can mark this one off of our list.

The food was very delicious, the service was very good, everything was very good. Kid-friendliness: Oh, the children's menu seemed good to me Wheelchair accessibility: There is a ramp for a wheelchair Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner Price per person: $20–30

I'm glad I stopped here! I went after 2pm and my fajitas came out, sizzling, within literal minutes. The man was super nice and the restaurant was spotless. Plenty of parking. I was in and out in 15-20 minutes. Chick Fil A isn't even that fast.

Awesome authentic spot. Service: Dine in Meal type: Lunch Price per person: $20–30 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5 Recommended dishes: Guacamole
