| - I want to like this place.... I really do. I have heard the food is pretty good! I like the concept of non gmo and organic. I don't mind paying a little more for that either.
The table guac and salsas are amazing.... However that's all I had after an hour and a half! Not joking. Not even a refill of water. Finally had to leave. No dinner, and my drink that took 30 min to even get ordered never came. When I told the waiter that finally came around to take orders after 1 hour and 25 min being there that my drink never came and that I had to leave because my ride was on their way and couldn't even order now he said "ok" and went to the next person. That's it. Wow.
Instead of being able to order a dinner at that point I asked him for at least more chips and water since our table had our salsas and the whole order of guac just sitting there with nothing to eat it with and all of our glasses empty... And had been for quite a while.... Nope, never showed even after another 15 min. No one ever once came by to refill water, to check on us, no one watching the fact that there was no chips to eat the table guac... Never saw a person to even ask. Watched another table get seated 30 min after we were seated get ordered and served their food before the waiter even came around to take our order. Ride came, Had to leave.
I am beyond disappointed as I was starving both when I got there and also when I left. Service is awful, no staff to be seen. Waiters attitude was beyond terrible.
Btw, this was a party of 20. Special bday celebration. They knew we coming, and this was the service that was provided. Not cool.
Second star is just me being courteous.
***FOOD IS COLD!!!!***** can I take away a star please!?!?
Yep, went back again only because the girls I was meeting chose the place.... Again the salsas and table guac was great. This time our waiter was pretty good.
Party of 3, ordered margaritas and when they came, woah! So much lime juice and "agave nectar" but little to no alcohol. Second one came in a rocks glass instead of margarita glass because they "ran out of glasses" really? I'm certain if I poured the amount of liquid in my glass into a shot glass it would not have even filled it. So much ice and, yep, more lime juice! Ugh my stomach!
Ordered the street tacos. One shrimp, one (spicy)pork. Plate came a la cart. Would have been nice to know that. Shrimp was very strongly fishy smelling (I know better than to eat anything that smells fishy) and cold and my pork taco had exactly 2 pieces of meat in it. One piece was approximately 1/2 inch of actual meat and the other was an equal amount of complete fatty nothingness, inedible. Neither taco was even remotely warm. It is beyond obvious that all food is prepared well, if not days, in advanced and then only partially warmed to order. I'm not sure with how many multiple reviews of this place complaining of the same thing it is not yet rectified. And honestly I'm not sure how the health district is not yet aware of the problem. It's amazing no one has gotten sick yet.
Our party moved to the bar after dinner for one more round and even after asking for "light on the lime juice" was served an extremely acidic margarita again with no alcohol. When I asked for a solution, the bartender handed me a shot glass full of more "agave nectar" as the solution with no explanation. I tried a drop or two of that and then added more ice from my own water glass to try to solve the problem but really it was just way to sour and acidic to drink. As of now, 5 hrs later, my stomach has still not settled either from the "fishy shrimp" or the acid margarita I'm not sure but ugh.
So basically this place just has consistently given me a bad experience. I will not be going back. And I will tell and share my experience with others. Disappointing to say the least. Again I will say the idea of a organic and non gmo would be nice.... But not this place. Save your stomach and go to any other hole in the wall for a better plate to be sure. And guaranteed it will be cheaper too! I didn't even go there, but our bill was $87 for 6 street tacos, table guac, and 6 drinks (little to no alcohol!). Pretty Pricey dontcha think!? Robertos and a six pack would be step up from this experience.
