What happened?

by AJD10

We've gone to this restaurant for a number of years, usually for special occasions with groups of friends. This time, it was a different experience.

The menu has no vegetarian entrees listed ; though they do note they have one upon request. At least I knew you could get a nice chile rellenos.

For a Mexican restaurant, the spice was missing. We felt like they're losing their authenticity to catering to a blander, common palette. The tilapia was nice, but lacked lemon. The rice was bland and served with steamed broccoli. The salad lacked seasoning too! The chicken mole got thumbs up, but the steaks were average. The other night we weren't even impressed with magaritas as normally we were.

I don't know if the management or chefs have changed, but it's not the same "wow" we used to have for it. (Ambiance is the same - great!)

Not worth the drive or the money.

I love Mexican food and have dined in numerous Mexican restaurants, here and in Mexico. We dined here a year ago and enjoyed it, especially the free margaritas. On our recent visit, we were very dissapointed, The prices are higher, and the portions smaller and not as tasty. The piece of red sanpper was very small for a $21 entree, and the accompanying vegetables were bland. The "Eduardo" sauce on the fish was nothing but some stewed tomatoes with some green olives, and no distanct taste. The chicken mole was unremarkable. The rice was tasteless and the refried beans tasted burnt. The mole sauce was watery, and there wasn't much of it. When we asked for more, we were served about 2 spoonfulls and were charged extra! That was insulting, considering the price of the entrees. Wait staff is pleasant and competent. Overall, a disapointing experience.

• Pros: Pleasant atmosphere and good staff. Free margaritas.
• Cons: Overpriced. Food is mediocre.

By far, the best Mexican food in the area!

The whole red snapper is fantastic. I go there at least once a week! The food is great along with the service and the music. It is a BYOB but they give away the best Maragritas! This is a family restaurant and a great place to go on the weekends or during the week. This is definatly my favorite mexican restauarnt!

• Pros: food
• Cons: the wait on the weekends.
