  I was reading Donna's bad review as I was waiting on food. I thought to myself, "cant be that bad". It was...I ordered a few tacos for me and another guy, ended up ordering 2 beef fajita tacos, 1 carne guisada and 2 tripa tacos. I was only supposed to order one fajita taco but decided two just incase the tripas were bad.
  If you have tripas on your menu you better know how to do it right, sadly, they didnt. I opened them up and the tripas looked grey, took a bite of one and immediately threw them away. I've never tasted anything like that, even bad tripas taste like tripas, these taste like they had them in the fridge for over a week and they looked grey. Beef fajitas were OK, nothing to rave about. Seemed as though they were just a seasoned sliced sirloin cut, instead of being a marinated skirt steak. Overall, I didnt taste anything that was worth the money I spent. Enter at your own risk.

  Wow, this was by FAR the worst Mexican food I have EVER had.  The chips tasted almost chewy and were not good at all.  My friends ordered the iced tea and were dumping buckets of sugar into it trying to make it passable because it was so strong.  But the worst was the meal...ick.
  
  A bunch of us ordered cheese enchiladas and I couldn't figure out why they tasted odd but familiar.  Finally, I figured it out....Cheez Whiz!  They tasted like Velveeta or Cheez Whiz!  I asked the waitress what kind of cheese were in them and when she asked me what I thought it tasted like, I told her that it tasted like Velveeta.  She said that might be right because that's what they sprinkled on the top of them.  So...."cheese" enchiladas stuffed with pasteurized processed cheese spread.  Yum!  NOT!
  
  The shell on my chalupa was also that weird chewy texture and the refried beans were bad and the Mexican rice had this oily residue under them, too.  The beef enchiladas were passable, not good, but not nearly as bad as the cheese ones.
  
  The service was bad, too.  My friend asked for more guacamole for her nachos and the waitress brought her out a bowl of avocado slices and said they were all out of guacamole.  Really???  Wow, yeah.  We'd hate to put you out by asking you to do your job and give us already prepared food!  So my friend had to mash the avocado slices herself with her fork to make it into guacamole.  
  
  I will agree with one thing the previous reviewer said, this place is cheap.  Almost everything was $5.99-6.99 and you got decent portions for that money; however, you definitely get what you pay for in this case.  I would rather pay a little more and get something I will actually eat.  
  
  I would NEVER eat here again.
