If you aren't in a hurry and don't care about the service or the food, this is your restaurant.

We arrived at 6:00 Sat evening. Very busy. We are told 45 minute wait. It was obvious from the start that this was not to be the case. After an 1 1/2 hour we asked about the status of our table. We were told 3 more people in front us. Unfortunately, they told the same thing to the next 3 people that asked. The hostess was flustered and very tired of answering inquiries about the status of customers wait, and didn't care if you knew that. We were finally seated at 7:50. The waiter was extremely friendly and apologetic. The food was just okay. Honestly, at the point we have been at the restaurant for 2 hours and 40 minutes, the food didn't have a chance of tasting good. Absolutely NOT worth the wait or the price. Even after we were seated, it was another 40 minutes before our food arrived. My only regret is the rating system requires me to give ONE star. Otherwise, it would be Zero.

• Pros: Very festive.
• Cons: You might need an overnight bag.

Good Beef Fajitas

by vq13 at Citysearch

I have to say, I am very picky with beef fajitas. These are just really, really good. They are not chewy or tough, they are tender and just great. Everytime I go there I always get good service and food. I can honestly say I have never had a bad experience. Even when they are packed! The shrimp enchiladas are GREAT. yum. Ok...its not your typical tex-mex food...but its really good. Its a little pricey but worth it. The tortillas are excellent, the salsa that comes with the chips is not very good but oh well. everything else is.

also for dessert, try the chocolate capirotada (like a chocolate bread pudding in the shape of a brownie)! It comes with mexican chocolate ice cream (has cinnamon in it). It is SO GOOD.

• Pros: everything
• Cons: too loud sometimes

Great fajitas

by buffbabes at Citysearch

The beef fajitas are great. the charro beans are good too. The rice is average. If you get the large fajitas it is a good dinner for two with leftovers. I also had my rehearsal dinner here for my wedding and the food came out when they said it would and was delicious. Even when its slammed (which is always) the service is still stand up. Oh yea also- try the spicy beef queso- yum!

• Pros: fajitas, margaritas
• Cons: loud
