| - A few months after my first visit, I decided to give this place another try. Yes, their menu is quite vast. It is spacious inside. Yes, this is a very popular local place on John street in Matthews. The food is prepared to cater to local palates. Nothing wrong with that. It is what makes them a neighborhood favorite.
Here is the thing with me- I grew up on Mexican food in Chicago, either home cooked, great hole in the wall mom and pop joints, and some time spent in Mexico. My reviews are written from that point of view. Therefore, despite trying different menu items on my second visit, I still stand by my original review.
However, I will change the stars to reflect this restaurant's efforts to serving the locals with what they love and prefer. No more only because our food was still bland, the server would not check to see if we needed refills or anything else, and the final bill was wrong with unnecessary extra charges that should be a part of an authentic Mexican meal.
Overall, you might love this place or not.
By the way....
As adults, we can decide for ourselves what to take away from the reviews left on here. Low star reviews do not stop you from trying out the place for yourself. Opinions will always differ. Just do not be the type of reader who feels the need to send scathing, border line bullying "compliments" or "messages" to reviewers in response to their authentic experience and opinions left on here. These features on Yelp are designed to foster a sense of community and healthy interactions.
