| - I've been here twice. Once, I just sat at the bar for lunch and ordered fajitas. Your mileage may vary, but they use the bottled real sugar Mexican Coca-Cola bottles, and I was only charged for one despite receiving three refills. I'm glad I wasn't charged for the extra bottles, because the one I was billed for was $6. The service and the food were great, although dangerously challenging their value with the high prices for most plates.
The high price issue faded a bit when my fiancee and I returned months later for dinner, where the place was packed and had a really cool social-meets-classy ambiance.
The menu needs SEVERE updating: At that meal, I was feeling like eating light, so I ordered the taquitos, which are billed in the menu as "Beef or chicken." It doesn't even say cheese, but every taquito I've ever had in my life is just meat and cheese. When it came, it was covered in slaw, onions, guac and sour cream - things I guess that aren't uncommon in a Mexican restaurant, but things that I'm picky enough of an eater to not want to eat, especially when the menu didn't say that it came with all of that stuff. Fortunately, our server was understanding, took it back, allowed me to select something else from the menu (that still lacked an explanation of its ingredients, but he was able to provide them verbally so that I could be sure of what I was getting this time) and didn't charge me for the taquitos.
I think it's critical that the menu spell out what ingredients are in the item - not only does this usually help you sell the item and keep picky eaters like myself happy, but it also helps those with food allergies avoid certain items without having to pester their server with those types of things.
Considering the menu issue, I'd reduce them to 3 stars, but they recover to 4 on the customer service end on immediately rectifying the issue for me. I just hope they put a more long-term solution in place by rewriting the menu to be more verbose.
