| - We used to go there for lunch regularly but hadn't been there for a couple years, so it sounded good. We were sat and after a little waiting and confusion about who our waiter was supposed to be we were brought chips and salsa and beans. They were standard, okay. I used to like this place because they had some spicy items, but zero spice in the salsa. Should have asked for some hot sauce, which I think they used to automatically bring, but maybe not. When ordering I asked if the green or the red burro was hotter. I used to be a waiter in a Mexican restaurant and I realize neither is really hot, but sometimes one might have a little kick. The waiter said the red, so I ordered that. In the picture the lunch green/red burrito was enchilada style, so I thought mine would have the red sauce on top. When he brought it out it was kind of a puny burrito and no sauce. I asked about the topping and he said that was how it comes, but when I said the picture on the lunch special had enchilada sauce he was nonplussed and just said he could bring a side of the sauce if I'd like. It's not the same when it's not baked on top with melted cheese so I said that it wouldn't be necessary. Cutting into my burrito it was immediately apparent that it was a machaca burrito, not red chili. It was lunch and I didn't have time for a re-do so I just ate it. Server brought our check without clearing the table. Also, the table was a bit dirty and one of the knives and a plate had schmeg on them. All in all what I saw was a restaurant in decline, and badly in need of competent management. I really hate giving bad reviews, so I'm hoping they read this and some of the other bad reviews that have been popping up and make some changes for the better. Their hatch chili items are delicious, and there aren't too many Mexican places with good heat in their menu, so I really hope they work things out.
