This is a small chain of restaurants in North Texas. We've eaten at their Gainesville, TX location many times & really like it, but this was our first time at this location. I was not as impressed although the food that I had was delicious. First, the waiter misunderstood my order & instead of bringing me one fajita taco as I had requested, he brought me a whole order of fajitas. I didn't want to make a big deal since I figured I could eat the leftovers later. However, I specifically ordered Corn tortillas (in Spanish, to be sure I was understood) & yet I was initially brought Flour tortillas. He eventually brought me some corn ones, but, tired of waiting, I'd begun eating using the corn tortilla chips that were leftover from the basket initially placed on the table when we sat down. The restaurant wasn't that busy that it should have taken him as long as it did. The corn tortillas that he did eventually bring me were the store bought white corn kind that are not very good or authentic, & are usually very thin & mushy & tear easily. I decided the chips were the better option at that point.
Food was great! Service was a lil choppy but I'm pretty sure the waitress was new. All in all, I'll probably be back next time I'm in the area!
I was fortunate not to suffer the indigestion but after the tortillas fiasco, I don't think I'll be going back anytime soon - at least to this location.
The staff is very prompt to serve you, the environment is clean and the food is great!
This is authentic Mexican with plenty of Tex Mex options. Server was very prompt and attentive and had no problem taking an order for a dish that wasn't on the menu (although the menu was pretty lengthy, so it might have been). Salsa was a little on the sweet side, but the rest of our meal was top notch. We'll be coming back!
I wanted to give 5 stars because they serve Amazing food! Fresh and delicious. The salsa is on point and the Fajita Nachos are the best nachos I've ever had! I travel here from Texas occasionally and I always get excited to eat here. This time we did not get good service. Wrong order & charged for things mentioned in the description of the food. Will come again but watch closely for inaccuracies.
It's a great place to come for lunch or dinner with friends or family!
My husband had ordered a chicken with green sauce dish that he really enjoyed at first, but it gave him really bad indigestion that kept him awake pretty much all night because he didn't have & couldn't find any antacids at the hotel due to the very late hour.
I'm big on chips and salsa and this is the first time in a while that I haven't had to add salt to either thing.
