Food was really good, told waitress I liked it spicy and she made sure to bring out a whole bunch of hot sauces! Had the fish tacos made gluten free with corn tacos and house salad. Meal was amazing, and THAT SALAD DRESSING- OMG! Partner had the Chipotle dinner, he really enjoyed it! Service was really good, waitress really knew all the dishes when we had questions and was very friendly. Will be back again soon!

Long wait and mediocre “Mexican” food. Was excited to see pozole on the soup of the day and was shocked that the hominy was not cooked and other than that sitting in the bottom of a bowl of water there was some spring mix and a ton of onions with a couple crumbles of corn chip on top. The hominy was literally uncooked. I had to send it back. I also mentioned I have a gluten and dairy allergy and my food came out with cheese melted over the top. After waiting almost an hour for food to come, this was super disappointing.

This place has a good view and you always kinda look at it when you drive by too. The service was wonderful and the atmosphere is amazing. Food was under whelming for Mexican flavors, it felt a little bland. It fits for the demographic of the region, but definitely not amazing Mexican food. Also decent Gluten free options, Definitely worth a visit maybe a couple of times to get a real taste their menu offers.
