I really really wanted to like this place. But it did not live up to the d hype.
Service - four stars
Server was friendly. She appeared to be the only one around, though, so a few refills went missed. Otherwise she was prompt and courteous.
Food - Two Stars
I was eager to try self-proclaimed "authentic Mexican food" in the nearby Detroit-Shoreway neighborhood. As an appetizer for the table, we ordered "Mexican guacamole." Someone in the back went crazy on the onion that it overwhelmed the dish. That was ok with me bc I don't mind onion but if you hate onion, you'll hate this dish. One in my party ordered fajitas. Flavors were on point there. I wished I had gotten that. It was served with flour tortillas and beans and rice. And another got a guisado bistec which is a steak dish with beans and rice and it was all too salty for her. I ordered a super greasy pork and potato dish with red sauce. It was OK on the flavor, nothing special, but it was heavily greasy.
Value - one star
Compared to other local "authentic Mexican" restaurants, this place is pricy. Pop for two (other had waters) and the dishes above plus tip were $60+. And what we had was not worth $20/person. Additionally, the item which prompted me to write this section is the nickel and diming. To be fair, it's all on the menu but still irked me. Only one refill on fountain drinks and extra cost for chips.
Atmosphere - Two stars
While it has its own lot, it fills up fast. So you have to park on the street if it's full and that area is a little sketchy.
