What I ordered, which were bacon-wrapped shrimp, wasn't good. It seemed like they cooked them and then reheated them. They were a bit dry. But the service was excellent. The people who served us were super friendly.

They don’t have good speaking English waitstaff. It’s hard for them to understand what you’re wanting.

Have been going here intermittently for years. Food is a hit or miss. This time a big MISS. Taco salad had ground beef that tasted VERY old & confirmed by another at the table. Her enchiladas were supposed to be shredded beef, but got ground. The taco shell was over cooked & again, tasted like old oil. There was not much sauce over the enchiladas & more had to be requested.... Service was great!
