| - Disclaimer: I'm from Texas, where there are Mexican food restaurants everywhere. I tried to ignore giving this place a review because it makes me sad and miss "home". If I could give this place 2.5 stars I would have.
My husband and I were looking for a place to go that we could both feel like we're home. We came here for St. Patrick's Day in the evening with full intentions of sitting at the bar. The bar was unfortunately packed, which was a good sign that maybe the food and/or drinks would be decent. They had a St. Patrick's Day margarita special. I think it was a house margarita for $6. The venue was a lot bigger than I thought it would be. Huge bar in the middle of the restaurant with seating behind it and in front of it.
Since we couldn't sit at the bar, we were seated at a table in the front of the restaurant, near a TV since basketball was on (gotta love March Madness!). Our server was prompt and courteous. We asked her recommendations, and she said the fajitas were extremely popular. That is what we ordered. We decided to try and split it, just in case we didn't like it. When we asked if we could have an extra tortilla, there was going to be an up-charge of 99 cents. We ended up not getting it because the aren't made in house... Have you ever had fresh made tortillas? LIFE CHANGER!!!
We also ordered a small queso for our complimentary chips, which was ok. We definitely killed the whole thing. We got our house margaritas. They were nothing special - green for St. Patty's but I couldn't recommend it to someone I cared about.
Thank goodness we split the fajitas. We ordered the mix up (steak and chicken fajitas). Both tasted teriyaki flavored or like a stir fry. We didn't like it, and I could hardly eat one fajita. It was disappointing. So, in all the restaurant didn't pass our fajitas test, and if I came again I would definitely have to order a margarita with a better quality tequila. I could see this as a spot for drinks and chips - and that's about it.
