Great Tex-Mex joint! The prices were good, and the portions were more than enough for 2 meals for me. Great Happy Hour drink specials 4pm to 7pm. The server was extremely friendly. She brought our margaritas out right away. Once we had ordered, the food followed within 10 or 15 minutes. The food was really good. I got the Laredo combo which is a beef taco, beef & bean cholupa and cheese enchilada with rice and beans and it was more than enough for me. The enchilada was covered in what looked and tasted like nacho cheese sauce (I'm not saying it's good or bad - just depends on how you feel about it I guess). Overall a really good experience. If we are ever in the area again, I'm sure we will be back!
Tex Mex done right! Had the bacon wrapped shrimp for an appetizer and the sour cream chicken enchiladas were delicious. You have to try the mango pineapple salsa, so light and yummy!
Food is amazing and the portions are huge. I'd like the salsa to be a little less spicy but it's great as it is anyway. We celebrated our farewell party here before leaving the US, good memories.
Plenty of parking on a Tuesday evening. We were seated immediately. The table was dirty and we requested it be cleaned. This was done begrudgingly but quickly. Order was prepared and brought out in good time. My tortilla soup was spilled out of the bowl and into the saucer. Chips and salsa was good though half of the chips were crushed. There's a lot of Tex-Mex restaurants to choose from so I'll probably try another before returning.
The service was really great. The facility itself is clean and massive. Nice decor and even a little store where you can buy pinatas. Really recommend going here for dinner. You will really enjoy.
