This is orders of magnitude better than the restaurant that used to be at this location. I decided to try it again after hearing a good review from a colleague. I had the tacos al pastor and they were amazing. I was enchanted with the very first bite and can't wait to go back and have them again.

Decided to try this place after seeing some reviews online. We were seated immediately upon arrival. Free chips & salsa. Salsa had good flavor with a slight kick (not for me but for the kiddo). I got the Chicken burrito fajita. I have not seen this option at any other place. It was pretty good. Actually they were two small ones with rice. Rice was good as well. My friend ordered a half size of chicken fajitas. It was definitely enough that two could have shared. And they have Pepsi so that always wins a star! Our waiter was great and Carlos was super friendly when we paid our bill.

Used to be our “go to” Mexican spot. Now the service is hit or miss, and the food is just ok. The last time we went, I ordered their shaker margarita, which was described on the menu as a margarita made with orange juice. What I got was an orange juice mixed with tequila and a splash of sour mix. I asked a server if it was supposed to be all oj, he just said “yes” and walked away. When our server came to check on us, I asked her, and she took it back to “fix it” but only added a tiny bit more sour mix. It was not a margarita and I didn’t drink it. We probably won’t go back now that viva and the new hacienda location in grimes have patios. It’s too bad, we used to eat here at least once a week.
