  Great place to eat at. I always enjoy going there. They are also BYOB, so you can bring you own choice of wine or beer if you want to. I have been there multiple time and have enjoyed every meal I've ordered.

  I do recall the food being a little bit better. This is my second choice for Mexican restaurants in the area. Don Pedro's is number one, this was closer to where I was coming from, so...Ok, so they only had one waitress, and I think she was helping the people at the carry out counter too. There was a guy sitting at the first table eating soup when we walked in. He looked up long enough to tell us, "sit where u want" with a mouth full of soup. This was only after my mother said aloud, who is gonna seat us?...because there was no one at the front to greet us. After we got our menus, we sat for a good while before our order was taken. At one point my mom told me to close my menu. We think this trick will make the waiter come faster. NOPE! The waitress was friendly, so much so that she spent alot of time talking to customers at at least two other tables. It was obvious she knew them...expected in a neighborhood place. However, we don't know you, but maybe take our order? Refill our drinks? Ask if we need anything? The service sucked, but my enchilada and my tostada were delicious. The rice was bland, beans just ok and the taco nothing to talk about. The salsa for the chips personally made me want to puke...way too thick, more like ketchup. Carryout would be my only return visit, and only if I'm in the immediate area.

  The best steak anything you can get anywhere. They have the most expensive burrito on the south side but its the biggest and the best. I am telling ya , stick with the steak.

  "The El Mariachi "
  The service was just fine . The free chips were old the salsa sweet .This is not a good start . The menu  had pictures of the food good ,now let's see if the plate looks like the picture . Bingo good job guys . The #25  'flautas '' has a little hat nex to it  this is the secret code for Chef  recommended. HA..HA uhhh .The chef double rolled the flauta , then droped it the deep fryer . hard as a rock ,I don't care it was nasty . the rice was fly away dry  The beans were flat no flavor . .one guy walked in and looked at the no smoking  sign and walked out mumbling the tacos are better on ridge . so I will have to say this
  why can't people do a good job on food .   # 1 it is your culture#2 it is your bread and butter,and this is what pays the bill's .If you dont like to cook  and or for some reason  you can't do it get out of the kitchen . and let some one do it that  enjoys the task of seasoning  food ,ar knows when to add some vegtable stock to the rice so it dose not fly off the plate when the server bring's it to my table.
