Really great food, just took quite a while to get to us. Had some classic rock playing on the speakers, and one gal running around to the 3-4 tables plus doing what seemed to be numerous take-out orders. But, the drinks were cold and the chips & salsa nice and fresh. Enchiladas were delish, rice & beans on point. No complaints.

Very good drinks. The Miller light was in a frosty mug and super cold and fresh. We had enchiladas and nachos which were very good.

GRACE WAS AMAZING, even in the face of absolutely chaos. She prevailed. Went with a very large group and they didn't have the staff to handle it but the did it. We have been there ateast 3 times the past week. Food is great, all the servers are friendly and quick. Love it here. We will be back.

Damn good Mexican food and really good prices. This is like my favorite cheap place to eat! Pablo Salad is gluten free and paleo too (I think) simple salad, but really good! Update: The pizza is really good. Over the years, this has become my favorite pizza place. I like thin crispy/crunchy crusts and good toppings. I especially like sausage and garlic pizza. So good from here. The sausage is so flavorful and the garlic muat be fresh chopped. It smells so good to walk in and smell the garlic on the pizza cooking. Tastes even better!
