I am sad to say that I would not reccomend this place to anyone. The staff was friendly, and I am not typically one to complain... but wow. Our dishes were absolutely terrible. Please do not go here. I hope they can fix their ways or make way for a better restaurant on main street.

I would give it a 0 but it doesn't allow you to do that been going to this restaurant for years and every time the owner takes our order he messes it up don't know if it's because he doesn't understand doesn't speak good English or just doesn't care but because he had to redo our order because he doesn't understand now he refuses our service and told us not to come back And we have never been rude or Out of line we have even paid extra for our re orders an this man has literally mess up our order every time we've call if anyone else takes our order it's fine I guess the worst part about the whole experiences it's the owner that is treating us this way

We went for our daughter-in-laws birthday. I had what I call a cross-eyed cranberry. It's the huge cranberry margarita. Loved it. Oh and we had fajitas and they were so good.

The servers were nice and friendly. I got the enchiladas supremas which included four enchiladas with various fillings. The ground beef felt cheap and the chicken felt good but different. For the price I think it was an excellent meal. The atmosphere was definitely cheap Mexican restaurant, however I could tell that the staff put in their own decorations that come straight from the heart so I felt that the atmosphere was better than the average low cost restaurant. All in all I will definitely come here again.

I must say I won't be ordering from here again. 40$ carryout order. The "beef" enchilada with 0 spice or sauce pretty much grey boiled hamburger in a soggy corn tortilla with a gross thinned out cheese sauce. My fajitas were literally steamed (should be flash grilled and semi charred) and flavorless impossible to eat. Side boxes were packed with lettuce (with fajitas?) so as the lettuce wilted everything ended up wet and drenched so no I couldn't even eat the beans and rice. This place was a lot better under the old ownership.

I celebrated my PhD last night in this fine place. Well we enjoyed a incredible evening and the venue was no doubt the reason for that happy event. The waiters contributed in a splendid way, the meals were extremely good and my buddies were so joyful. We shall definitely return for more celebrations. Thank you very much.

The food was hot and delicious, the staff was friendly. The only cons were: getting in and out of the parking lot (and a big truck blocked us in while we were inside), our carry out order sat on the counter ready to go for at least 20 minutes while the cashier chatted with others, some of the order was incorrect or missing, and out of the 3 times we ordered there (all the same food) we were charged a different amount each time.

Use to love this place but tonight I ordered to go, I ordered large white cheese it was $11.00 which was fine but I get home there is a small thing of white cheese that salsa comes in and a large salsa called he said he would credit me next time I come in which was fine. Then I was eating a toco loco took a bite felt something in my mouth pulled out someone’s fake nail. I called he said there was no way he doesn’t have females in kitchen. I don’t wear fake nails I know it didn’t come from me. I will not be back there I will fine another place for sure.

Place was packed and there was a line. Several people in front of us left which made our wait only 7 or so minutes. The drinks and chips arrived quickly but after waiting 45 minutes we still didn't have any menus. They were packed, as I said earlier. One of the members of our party got some menus and when we were asked if we wanted refills we let the young man know that we wanted to order. Our food arrived quickly and was hot and delicious! I got the steak fajita burrito which was fantastic. We were there for about 2 hours eating and visiting and had a wonderful time. There are 3 stalls in the women's restroom and only one had toilet paper, just a little at that! I do recommend Three Compas but beware: they might be slammed.
