    So as one of the other reviewers stated, this is just a mom and pop, local restaurant.  I have had better, and defiantly had worse.  

    The caso comes and is put in a bowl over a warming tea candle.  the cheese is not just the white Mexican cheese, but also has melted cheddar.  seasoned well.

    The bad - The wife had a chicken quesadilla.  It was barley warm and was on corn tortilla.  She was not pleased.

    The good - I had two cheese enchiladas and two crispy tacos.  So a couple of little tweaks and they would be great.  Need onion on the enchiladas and salt in the taco.

    So we had the Caso, the two mains, drinks and the total bill with tip was less then $20.00.

    Only giving one star because the server was very friendly.
    But as far as the food. It was by far the worst Mexican food we have ever eaten.
    Went with a party of four.

    The cheese dip was bland and tasted odd. Like mashed beans and cheddar with chili powder.

    The three combo fajita was a skimpy portion and covered in hot salsa.

    Rice was hard/no flavor
    Beans were dried and over cooked.

    Chimichanga was plain dry shredded chicken with cheese melted on top.

    Guacamole.. was just smashed Alvarado with lime added.

    Nothing had flavor other than the free table salsa. Everything else we had to salt and pepper for it to have any flavor what so ever.
    Will never eat there again and will NOT recommend to anyone.

    Should of just went for pizza down the toad. Least you get your money's worth and can taste your food.

    Friendly service is the only thing this place has going for it. This isn't a Mexican restaurant it's Mexicant. Food has no flavor.

    I'm a lifelong resident who grew up eating here, it used to be enjoyably bad food.  Now it's just plain nasty, rancid tasting and I felt sick afterwards.

    This place is a dive.
    Ordered a seafood taco and they took the fake cold intimation crab sticks and tore them up with some lettuce.I was done with eating here at that point.

    Now they are trying to advertise meatloaf and American crap.
    Mexican food is cheap to make but you need a cook that knows how to cook Mexican.
