Customer Review Summary

Fajitas and other combo plates draw repeat praise, with reviewers singling out steak and shrimp and chicken fajitas, the Alambres with added pineapple, and chimichangas as standouts, alongside friendly, welcoming staff and one mention of a manager stopping by the table. Several also call out the drinks and Marquitas favorably. Close behind, service pacing splits opinion: some find it prompt, others describe it as slow, including one account of waiting five minutes unattended near the restroom with several other guests. Complaints recur around the cheese dip and salsa, one reviewer describing hard, unmelted cheese dip, another calling the salsa bland and jarred, and a third finding the salsa and a strawberry margarita oversalted. A couple of diners flag high prices relative to portions or food arriving lukewarm when parties are large, and one mentions the interior lighting and decor needing updating. Even so, several say they will return.

Featured reviews

  • James S
    “Food was very good and the meat actually had flavor. The interior of the restaurant needs some work as the lighting is pretty poor, needs a revamp and the place could use some more "Mexican flair" but the star of the show is the food. Will definitely be back.”
  • Bread MEDIA
    “Me and my wife are avid Mexican restaurant goers and we’ve been to almost every Mexican restaurant from here to Pensacola FL and this was by far the worst one, my wife ordered a “strawberry”margarita that tasted like nothing but salt the salsa was bland and tasted like it came from a jar the only redeeming factor of our 20 minute visit was my bottled modelo and the mediocre cheese dip. We did not stay long enough to dare ourselves to try the food but god bless your souls if you did.”
  • Todd Krayne
    “Great small town joint. Service was extremely friendly but not fast. We were not in a hurry no bother to us. Food was decent but the price was high. Drinks were good. Will stop again if we are in town.”
  • Griffin Meyer
    “Walked into a front door located directly next to the bathroom where I then proceed to wait 5 minutes for nobody to greet me or the 6 other guest waiting next to where people are relieving themselves.”
  • Madasha Billiot
    “Got cheese dip tonight that was straight hard cheese not even melted they never ever ask if you need a refill takes forever in this place food isint the best”
