As a prior restaurant owner, and manager I really understand the complexities of running a successful restaurant. However, it takes actual management, who knows and cares. And the understanding that in a restaurant the only smells you want are from food! We were celebrating our anniversary and decided to go to a "nice" place. This was on October 22, 2019. I guess going with an hour till closing was cutting it too close to the shutting-down time, because they seemed way more interested in cleaning up, sweeping, moving chairs, and MOPPING THE FLOORS WITH BLEACH, than waiting on the customers. The food is, at best, average. I had a chili relleno that was embarrassing to be called that. Along with dried refried beans and old rice. My wife had a Charly Burrito, which was again, pretty average. We both had a margarita to start the meal, and those were fine. Service was spotty, as everyone was interested in pre-closing. To get a soda refill, I had to go find a server! But, the absolutely worst thing was the BLEACH!!! They said the kitchen employees must be scrubbing the floor, and somehow the door has opened. No one made an attempt to CLOSE THE DOOR!! It was SO strong, I wondered how the employees didn't pass out! I actually threw some money on the table and we left! Allergic to such strong bleach, I was chocking in the parking lot for several minutes before I could get in the car. And, remember, I have worked much of my life in restaurants and foodservice. This place was absolutely terrible that night!! We planned to have a nice dining experience, knowing we're paying more than most other Mexican places, but it turned into a CRAPPY experience. NO WAY can I recommend this place to anyone. I've been there before, but it was a while ago. This is not the same place as before. Stay away!

My husband and I just left there, and as usual we were totally happy with our service there as well as the food.We live here in Cape Coral and although we have lots of other Mexican Restaurants around here, we keep coming back because here w know what we're going to get. We've never had unfriendly wait staff, the food has always been hot and fresh and what I appreciate very much during the rare times we go out to eat, it's always consistent. So keep up the good work folks and I'll keep sending vacation people your way :).Thank you so much for allowing us to serve you, Sandra. Till next time!

First visit here and glad we came. It is about 20 minutes from our home so not too bad a drive. I made reservations since this was large group and we were seated immediately when we arrived.The staff did an excellent job throughout the meal. We had chips, salsa and guacamole which was excellent. I love their salsa. I ordered the cheese enchiladas with rice and beans. Loved it. Lots of flavor. Our daughters had the quesadillas. They ate all of it.The drinks are excellent s well especially the Margaritas. This is now our favorite Mexican restaurant. We will be back soon.
