Rule #1 to remember, NEVER go to this restaurant 20 minutes before closing time as it will upset the staff so much to see customers coming through the door this close to closing time they will make sure you feel their ire the entire time you are there. When we walked in the door the employees behind the counter were looking at their watches as if to signal that we were coming in too late. The person behind the counter told us they were only doing "to go" orders because it was 20 minutes to closing. The first person to start taking our order had a hard time understanding English, all 3 of our orders were made incorrectly, when we tried to stop them from putting the wrong ingredients on our burritos they started getting visibly agitated, so we walked out with the wrong food order and were made to feel completely unwelcome. Some of the ingredients I wanted on my burrito were already put up for the night, even though they were not closed, the employee was unwilling to bring them back out for my order, and again this was BEFORE closing time. The men's restroom was GROSS, it didn't look like it had been cleaned the entire day, just the thought that the employees were using that gross restroom then making our food made me feel sick. Needless to say, avoid this restaurant, especially when it's 20 minutes before closing!

Pictures say 1,000 words, look at the photos I uploaded here. The dining room was filthy, the drink and condiment station was disgusting, dirty and the employees could care less. The teenager manning the cash register was very rude and copped an attitude when we tried to use a Qdoba coupon, he questioned the validity of it and displayed an aggressive and combative demeanor. If you want to eat in a digusting dining room and be waited on by rude employees not worthy of your time, eat at Qdoba in Apex, NC. Again, look at my photos as they tell you what this Qdoba thinks cleanliness means.

Never again. Hubs, 12yr old son and I went to Tacos Mexico for lunch after finding a Groupon for it and seeing all the good reviews. Boy were we sorry we did. Disappointed is an understatement. My son had the #1 lunch special (with beef) and I could tell by the look on his face it was not good. He said the meat was so dry and very tasteless. I had the chicken Burrito and I echo my son's sentiment. Chicken was dry and the burrito was as tasteless as an old shoe. The refried beans and rice were bland and tasteless too. Hubby had fajitas and after tasting mine said they were more flavorful, but still bland. The salsa was watery and again, no flavor. Even the chips were blah, no salt and cold. I'm so glad we decided not to get an appetizer. I would have hated to spend even more money for garbage food. I've had better at Taco Bell. Worst Mexican food we've EVER had, anywhere. I can't understand where all the glowing reviews come from. Save your money and find someplace, anyplace, than here to spend it. Oh, and the service was not that great either. Our server had the personality of a rock.

Just went to La Cocina for the first time for a business meeting. The service was incredibly fast! Did have a few small problems with my order. Ordered a chicken with spinach quesadilla. When I got the quesadilla, OOPS, no spinach. Hmm... I decided to try one of their desserts...the sopapillo. Ended up having to remind the waitress I had ordered the sopapillo. Maybe I shouldn't have. Their version seems to be a regular tortilla that was fried, drizzled with some honey and topped with three mounds of whipped cream and maraschino cherries. I was expecting the deep-fried light and puffy sopapillo, not a tortilla disguised as one. Granted I'm kind a picky about Mexican food, but I was hoping for something more from this restaurant.

I had lunch at Aranda's last week. I had the Carne Asada, the steak was well prepared, the salad was very fresh and the beens were good. I was surprised they serve sirloin steak instead of a flank or fajita steak. The steak was prepared correctly and tasty. They have full bar service and the service was excellent. The food came out quick, so if you are in a hurry for lunch this is the place to go.

La Rancherita has always been our go-to Mexican restaurant.At our last visit we noticed some changes. My daughter complained that the "white shredded cheese" was not the Land of Lakes brand that she was use to. All of us noticed the rice was more orange than before. I found it tasty, but other family members were put off by the change.We will definitely return and reevaluate.
