We had a wonderful experience.Posted on Google Zach FouselTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wow!! First time for "us" wife and I. I'm a native of this state. Finally made it!! Seen and heard the "hype" of this restaurant. First off chips and salsa. 3 kinds of salsa. Pico,Chipotle and my favorite of the 3 mango-habanero-spicy. Food- wife had the carne asada chimi. Huge portion. It can out to the table, "not hot". Had to seen back to back to warm up. Only negative issue. I got the stuffed sopaipilla. Huge portion, could only eat a quarter of the sopaipilla. YUMMY.. Same with the wife. Service- our waiter did a nice job being that it was his first day working for restaurant. Atmosphere- pleasantly comfortable. The usual decorations of a restaurant that serves this style of food. Huge portions, pallet pleasing flavors all around. Good service. Comfortable atmosphere.
