“ This place makes really good food and excellent margaritas. Using a lot of vegetables with the two dishes i tried, pollo a la parrilla y pollo al guajillo. Both of these plates come with the rice and beans con tortillas. Good, good stuff. The Cancun Margarita is made with fresh lime and orange juice and is a pretty good drink for sure. This place wasn’t too busy the two times i went there. Sat at the bar and had excellent service. ”
“ Great food, good service, awesome waitstaff! The only Mexican restaurant that knows how to cook a rare steak. Will definitely return when we are in the area. ”
“ We went on a Friday. The wait was a tad insane, considering I placed a reservation for 7, and we didn't get seated until about 7:35. The food was great though, and the waiter was very attentive! The alcoholic beverages were really tasty as well. We will definitely be going back at a less prime time hour/day. I didn't picture my Riunite Swirl, but it was delicious. Edit: Friday around 4PM is an awesome time to come ! Added a few more photos. ”
“ They do allow call ahead, which I wish we would have done, but we did get seated quickly. We ate after church this past Sunday, and the food was delicious. The salsa tasted freshly made. We had the family fajitas, which came with a large cheese dip and we ended up taking some home with us. ”
