They pretty much doubled the price of a large salsa few weeks ago was 5.25 now its 8.95. I get everything is going up but that's kinda crazy. Chips and salsa are part of the meal for me, not just the one little cup you get with it. Guess it's time to find a new place, no way anyone is going to pay almost 10 after taxes for 16oz of SALSA!! Food is just ok nothing to write home about but it's also inconsistent. I'll spend my money at Camacho Garage way better food.
I've been meaning to try this place for over a year and was not disappointed! The customer service was impeccable, the restaurant was clean and had a lovely ambience, and the bathrooms were well maintained. The prices were competitive. The restaurant was quiet as we arrived an hour before closing (9pm). Our server Neylani was extremely personable, kind, patient & professional. At her recommendation I chose the two taco combination plate with mango habenera chicken black beans, rice & spicy cole slaw. The mango habenero was mildly spicy and delicious! Hub ordered a cheese quesadilla with rice & beans & a beer (Two Roads IPA) and the kids & grandkids each had two ground beef tacos. We had free refill sodas and free nacho chips with red & green sauce, which were fresh and crispy. The portions were slightly smaller than I anticipated, however I did not leave hungry at all. The food was filling, fresh & delicious. Unfortunately I did not get the chef's name but he was smiling and graci
Seems like management or core staff has change. Constantly closing 30 minutes early and their hours are never correct online. I’ve been sitting here for 21 minutes waiting for a burrito in an empty restaurant as 5 employees chat and sit behind the register. Multiple tables need to be cleaned. Unfortunate because this place used to be great a few years ago…no way to contact the owner on the website because they probably have no idea.
