“Me encanta los lugares latinos y fui la verdad el lugar está muy lindo y limpio al llegar el parqueo me resultó un poco difícil luego entré y atentamente una chica al verme entrar por la puerta me dice deseas para llevar o para aquí le dije prefiero en el lugar así que me senté en una mesa y la chica vino y me decía he deseas tomar y si estaba lista para ordenar y si lo estaba iba por un machete grande 😁 al recibirlo me sorprendí es de 20” muy delicioso 😋 si eres latino y estás pensando en venir hazlo delicioso todo me encantan los lugares así ya que me recuerdan mi nacionalidad 😍”

“Big disappointment with the quesadilla, they are not good, and the cheese they use ends up giving it a terrible taste.”
“It is run of the mill average flavor. For me to want to go back to a Mexican restaurant, it has to be the bomb 💣, and bursting with flavor. They all have the capacity to make it absolutely savory and 🔥 fire, but for some reason, they seem to want to have mediocre flavor. I don't understand why 95% of Mexican restaurants want to be just "meh". The only thing that I love about here is that so far, none of the employees seem to use Gain detergent (itchy) or Gain scent beads in their wash (searing pain in the eyes and shoulders). I hope they keep it that way, and hope the food can be made savory and addictive in the future”
