| - My previous review gave them 4, but my experience the other day brings them to a 3.
Came around 6 pm this past Wednesday evening with my two sisters, one of whom is 4 months pregnant. Although I'm a patient person, there was a Mexican guy who was ordering for to-go who was having a conversation in rapid Spanish with the older lady behind the glass and this conversation took over 20 minutes. I don't know how long he was there before we came but THEY knew we were there and didn't ask him to move up so we could be seen until he himself stepped out of the way. He also knew we were there too, so acknowledged us and the other customer behind us after that time. The younger Hispanic woman behind the glass was occupied on the phone, so he had to translate to the older lady whom he was speaking to our order. I had no idea she couldn't speak english. Our fish tacos took over 15 minutes to make, which by that time we had been there 50 minutes and my pregnant sister who was hungry when we came in was nearly faint with hunger. She has fainted before from hunger so this is a problem that's not theirs, but still, that wait time before ordering is entirely their error. Another 10 minutes while they asked us what tortilla we wanted and then our sides and FINALLY over one hour later we got our food and discovered the next problem.
What on earth happened to their delicious flan in tiny ramekins?! Seems these days half the time the flan isn't there and when we finally saw some flan and tried it, it was in a larger pastry plastic shell and sadly tasted like it had been in the fridge for 4+ days (bad refrigerator taste). We at least did not have to pay for it but they said they didn't know how long it had been in there. What???
Overall, tacos were good, pico had a very strong onion taste--stronger than usual, flan, service, & wait time were a huge disappointment. I had been the one to suggest us coming there that night so needless to say we won't be back til after summer probably if we are desperate, or maybe give em a try again next year.
