  Honestly this place is such a gem. The owner and employees are super sweet. It's very apparent when the tables leaving are telling the staff how much they love them. My 3 staples in a great mexican restaurant are salsa, guacamole, and queso....and they knocked it our of the park on all 3. This might have been the best guac I have ever had. Food came out within FIVE minutes and was really, really good. Definitely recommend!!

  We stopped here on a Saturday night. I have no input or review to post on the quality of the food. I can only note our experience in regards to the staff. The restaurant was busy, but there were several open tables. There was one family of 4 waiting just inside the door near the register. We walked inside and waited to be greeted or seated. Unfortunately after a period of at least 10 minutes there wasn't one staff member that approached us. There were at least 4 staff members that passed us several times while we were waiting.
  The food may be great and they may have all been having a bad day, but I can find several other establishments to visit for a better experience.

  May have just found our new favorite, local Mexican restaurant! Our first experience here was great! We ordered the cheese dip and the Fajitas Chapala- fantastic. We had their margaritas, and they were just as great. The service was also amazing. Really nice staff. When checking out, our waiter apologized if we had waited too long during our visit because they had fewer people working than usual. Honestly, I didn't even notice! We were seated right away, and I feel our service at the table was good as well. But I really appreciated the gesture! I'm excited to go back soon!

  We decided to try this place out tonight. Thoroughly unimpressed.
  First of all, it was $40 for my teenager, my toddler(who ate off the kids menu) and myself. I ordered the fajita salad and it was like soup from the queso and I assume juice from the veggies. There was barely any lettuce and it was completely soggy.
  My teenager ordered chimichangas and they were soggy, not crisp, at all, like they should be from being deep fried. They were supposed to be shredded chicken and it was big chunks of chicken.
  They apparently don't have kids size cups so I had to pay for an adult drink for my 3yr old.
  Definitely not worth the cost. I left irritated that I spent so much for subpar food.
