Slow service; order took one hour. The food was bland at best. Threw most of it away. Way too expensive. Wont be returning any time soon.…

In my opinion, one of Lexington's strongest cuisines is Tex-Mex, and so we typically venture elsewhere for it, such as El Rancho or Durango's. El Mari…

Worst ever!. Horrible service. Brought out the adults food and had to wait 10 more minutes for my kids food. Forgot half of my husbands combo. Then the kids pizza was still partially frozen. Never took away dirty plates. Will never come back.
Simply amazing food!!!. Great staff, huge portions, low price, GREAT DRINKS!!!!!!!! LOOOVE IT!!!!!
Worst I’ve had in a long time. I stopped in because I was close by and traffic was bad, I wish I’d kept driving. The burrito included nothing but unseasoned poorly cooked beef, nothing else at all, and was covered in an awful red sauce and cheap cheese. The rice was bland and over cooked, and the beans were equally lack luster. I tried a taco with similar results. Bad meat with a sprinkling of old lettuce and bad cheese. Even the salsa tasted and looked like pureed canned products. I can finish about anything when I’m hungry, but I sent the majority of the food back uneaten.Adding to my disappointment, the service matched the food. Not a single offer for refills of either drink or chips and salsa in over and hour. After asking me if my food was okay the server proceeded to walk away before allowing me to comment. I rarely comment on restaurants unless they truly shine or are a complete disappointment. This experience falls into the later category. Maybe the cook had an off day, or maybe I ordered a particularly poor menu item. Either way it’s enough to keep me from returning. On the plus side the beer was relatively cheap.
No Thank You!. I have eaten here a handful of times and each time I have got take out. I never like it and only try again because of convenience to where I live. There seems to be an issue every time I order and of course when I get home something is wrong. Yesterday I ordered food and when I got home the chicken was burnt, to the point that we had to throw half of it away. Other times it either didn’t taste good or they forgot important things in our bag, like soft tacos to go with fajitas. On top of all of this they are more expensive than other Mexican places in town that are a heck of a lot better. I will NOT eat here again!
I’ve eaten here at least 5 times, and each time the quality is less then prior visit. This visit was no different. The refried beans were without flavor. They tasted like the can they came out of.
I had the chipotle camarones and they were very good. Portions were ample. Service was friendly and fast but the gentleman who sat me could be more welcoming and show some personality. The free chips and salsa was very good too. Reasonable prices too.
Not Very Friendly. I have eaten here three times since they have opened. First time to try it out and twice because others have wanted to go. The tamales tasted like microwaved frozen food. My main issue is the service. The last time the host seated us and never said a single word. We just followed him to the table as he walked away. then the server took our order and was looking away from the table toward the kitchen like she had something else to do. She didn’t even write down the order, and guess what? I got the wrong entree. Three strikes…
