| - This is one of those places you "root" for and hope they stay in business.
This is a family owned and run place. Dad is your host, Mom usually takes your order, and their daughters try and anticipate your needs for refreshment and other services that make dinning enjoyable.
The food is almost "authenitic Mexican". It's a little bit Gringo, and I attribute that to the area. They don't want to scare off the Gringos in the area, and orient themselves to Mexican Beers and a Margarita, that they try and talk you into ordering. After all, there lies the profit in this business.
I did find the food good, and I have visited it some six times. I finally had to give them up. Not because of the food or the service. It is certainly better than Pancho's, Macyos, or any of the other Gringo oriented chains, but it is very pricey.
I find for the price of a decent house special burrito, I can go to other places and get a higher quality meal. If you can stick to the Daily Lunch specials priced around $8, and fill up on the chips, this is a good find.
I wish the family well and hope they succeed. I just wish they would bring their prices more in line with other Gringo Oriented Mexican places, so I could afford to take others there, not simply eat alone, and look like a loser who just got dumped by his girlfriend.
