• Salsa.
• Everything else.

“Just drive on by! I should have listened to the reviews. I was extremely disappointed with the whole restaurant overall. If it wasn't for the salsa I would have left. It's the only thing that restaurant has going for them, and when I say only I mean it. The stale chips should have been the first sign of disaster. The actual meal was horrible. I've never been so upset with the outcome of my meal. I've been to a lot of Mexican restaurants and it's just about the worst of the worst. The food was very basic. You can't even add enough salsa to give it taste. Thrown together, no flavor or spice. Absolutely no care was taken in preparing the meal. You truly are better off going down the street to "taco bell" or "taco time" you'll save money and have a better meal. If you don't believe me, do what I did and find out for yourself. I guarantee you'll thank me if you take my advice.”

• Beautiful tile throughout.
• Bad service, bad food.

“Unfortunately, the best part of our meal was the home-made salsa, only to be served with stale and cold tortilla chips. The beef enchilada (ground not shredded as stated on the menu) was tasteless. There was no seasoning in the meat at all; same for the taco. The tomato was a slice placed on top of the tostada, a and a wedge on the taco. The refried beans were obviously hastily put together, as there were whole beans throughout the dish. The cheese enchiladas my companion ordered were bland (no onions or seasoning of any kind), completely without enchilada sauce; just covered with cheese. My advice: save your money! Taco bell is right down the street!”
