  Have been here several times, but we came with a large party last night.  I hate that I don't remember our server's name - she was funny and efficient.  She was training another girl - and I hope the trainee adopts the same easy-going style of our server.  There were several substitutions with our orders, and the servers did not get cranky at all about that.  All the food was brought out at the same time and tasted great.  Drinks were refilled promptly.  This was the best food/service I have received here in a long time.

  Had a lunch meeting here.  The chips and salsa were great, and the waitress made sure we did not run out if salsa.  Ordered a salad, it tasted decent, nothing bad or really fantastic.

  I've had great Tex-Mex, I've had so-so Tex-Mex, I've even had gross Tex-Mex. I've never had bland Tex-Mex. That's what Fort Wayne's Bandido's gave me.
  
  My youngest daughter is sensitive to spicy food so when she ordered a dish called Spicy Chicken Caliente I, being a good padre, ordered something not so caliente. I gave it a 90% chance that something labeled Spicy and Caliente would be too hot for her. Nope. She was just fine with it. When I asked her how it was she said, 'Boring'. This is from a 10 year old spice adverse kid.
  
  My toned down order was a beef burrito that looked like browned ground chuck in a tortilla. I also had a chorizo up-side-down taco. What's an up-side-down taco? Well, if you don't know you must be an idiot. At least that's the conclusion my waiter reached when I asked him. Anyway, in an up-side-down taco they put the cheese in the shell first, followed by the lettuce then the meat. I'm not sure how your tongue is suppose to perceive the difference in order but..oh, well.  Wait, not oh, well. It's stupid.
  
  The burrito and up-side-down taco were, as my daughter said, boring. My wife who was at a different table (this was a two table party/get-together) reported blandness also.
  
  My waiter, aside from the look of idiocy he gave me when I asked about the inverted taco, was on the spot and pleasant otherwise.
  
  The rest of the staff lived up to pleasant. Like most not-so-good restaurants, there was a game room for the kids near the front. I went to check on my daughter twice and had to use the restroom once. Each time on my return I met another server at a choke point in the restaurant. One of us had to stop to get by. It sure as heck wasn't going to the servers.
  
  Our reservation was for Saturday night at 6:30 and we left at 9ish and there were plenty of tables all around. I have a feeling I'm not the only one feeling like there's better places to hit. My only question is why are there 6 of these joints in that town?
