The service was pretty good, but the food not so much! I had a ribeye and so did my friend. We both came to the same conclusion that this place doesn't know how to cook a steak. If you don't like salt on your steak this place is for you, but everyone knows that a generous amount of salt on a steak takes it to the next level. I always get a ribeye, because I like all the flavor you get from that cut of meat, but it seemed to have the best part of the ribeye trimmed off. I don't even think they gave us a ribeye to be honest. Very disappointed after all the good reviews, but not surprising considering that I'm used to good southern cooking. Adding salt after the meat is cooked just isn't the same!! I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone.

Well...the "staff" doesn't speak English and the one that does is choppy, at best. There were no drinks on the menu, most of it is in Spanish, no chips and salsa. The place, itself, is not the best as the decor is seriously lacking. Other customers were getting drinks but no one offered one to us. I think there were 3 people working the night we went...1 waiting tables, 2 cooking. The menu offers burritos, tacos authenticos, gorditas, tortas and other dishes. The meat options were chicken, pastor barbacoa, lengua (yum!) and chorizo...all very tasty...and did I mention the pupusas? AWESOME SAUCE!! Give them a try!

My family and I were invited to a party. We got there early before the restaurant opened. I took a photo of the outside patio where the party was going to be. Nothing prepared us for the wonderful experience. The food was great, the portions were generous, and the pricing was fantastic. We enjoyed the party and the service along with the food. It was great visiting this Mexican restaurant.

We were in town for 2 days and ate here twice. We got our food to go and of course found out when we got back to our room that our food was not prepared as it was ordered. We took it back, as we were in the hotel across the street and they did fix the order. The next morning it took almost an hour to get a to go order. Needless to say the food could have been better and a waffle is always better when it's not burnt. Overall, just not real pleased with this Waffle House and we eat at a lot of Waffle Houses!

We went with a large group of our family and had to split into two hibachi tables. Our chef told us it was his first day, but he was obviously very experienced. We had a variety of orders including children with special diets, and he accommodated everyone's needs. My son said he wants to go back every day.

Okay what happened? This use to have fantastic Chinese food. Even the fresh Chinese mustard was bad. I always get the boneless ribs this time it was covered in some shinny sweet sauce. Please go back to the old way. Will we try it again. Yes they deserve another shot

We enjoyed a burger at the place and it was just great. Food quality is good as the service is fast.
I wanted a brisket but this was not available that day - will return for that.
The interior was clean all good. Big parking available outside - you should not have a problem getting a spot.
Will certainly return here.

The consistently great food and service keeps me and my wife coming back at least weekly.
They make us feel welcome and know our drink and usual guacamole and queso order. I do explore the menu though and have never been disappointed. I have learned that some of the best steaks you can get are at Mexican Restaurants.
Tacos de Carne Asada, Burritos galore, and a new found fave Chiliquilas all satisfy regularly.
Anybody we take with us is amazed at this hidden treasure.

Stopped here on our way back from Florida because we were CRAVING some pho. Their appetizers (shrimp blankets?) were really good. The steam dumplings were also really good. My pho was NOT the best. I don't quite like the broth because it seems watered down but regardless, I finished it. Decent price for decent food. The waiter doesn't talk much but seemed friendly.

If you love funnel cakes and deli sandwiches, you should try it! It's like the two had a baby and thus, the Monte Cristo was born! So delicious! I can share it with my husband and it's enough to feed the both of us!
