I find the service to be very friendly, and the food is delicious. An added bonus to this restaurant is the margaritas are awesome.

Me and my family went there to eat for the first time. We had a huge wait time to be greeted and get our drinks ordered. When the waiter was taking the order for the drinks, I asked about a dessert tres leches and the availability. He assured me they had it available tonight. We also ordered guacamole and cheese sauce. The drinks took quite awhile to get there. My husband ordered the El pollo special, my son 2 cheese enchiladas with rice and beans, and I ordered a taco, chile relleno, and rice and beans. Me and my husband have shellfish allergies and I have fish allergies too. So my husband stops eating and says something doesn't taste right. My son who eats this same meal everywhere we go, didn't want to finish it. I could tell, just as my husband that our meals were prepared and then put in a freezer and then re-heated. When I asked for the tres leches dessert he left and came back to tell me I couldn't have it because it was it frozen solid. He offered me to try another dessert. I ordered the deep fried cheesecake chimichanga (which he brought out not as described on the menu-it had a bunch of strawberry topping -which I'm glad I didn't have an allergy to.) It was also, on top of that soggy, and not warm at at all. About this time my husband is having anaphylactic shock to seafood cross contamination. We get a (Manager) to our table, I ask him to touch my dessert.



He says they don't go through enough to make it fresh. I ask about the cross contamination, he said we (customers) should disclose all their allergies. They use one grill to cook everything on. So, I explained the dessert was gross and I had to take my husband to the hospital. By the way when a customer is asking questions and you are yelling and arguing with them, don't expect repeat business. we also saw the waiters, ect standinding around talking in crowds, on cell phones, texting while people had to wait and we did too.
