  I'm not a complainer, but after we had a few times prior and each time was great, this is the only time I was truest saddened by the food here. Our server was great!! She did a wonderful job but I think I confused her when I said I didn't like my meal and my husband was attempting to eat it, she had nodded and said she was sorry and then walked off. I wasn't very clear...I never really know how to say what I mean.
  I ordered the Fajita nachos, hubs ordered Fajitas.
  The first basket of chips were all small pieces except four a couple of whole chips. I asked for a new basket, leaving all the little bits there and she brought another with the same issue. I ordered nachos, I didn't need more chips. First world problems.
  Margarita was fantastic!! But then I got the nachos and it was chips, layered with so much beans you couldn't taste the steak or cheese.
  When I think of a Fajita nacho I expected what you would get on fajitas...but with chips and nacho stuff....
  It's was a whole can of refried beans on soggy chips.
  I was very put off by that meal. Plus, we had so much gas after that bean-fest that I just didn't not feel good afterwards.
  
  I wouldn't say 'don't go there'...just don't order nachos.
  And order a large cheese dip, the small is not enough for two.

  Food was ok.  Not the greatest Mexican food.  I had the enchiladas and for the red sauce it was more like molé sauce and really thick.  My husband had the carne asada tacos and the corn tortillas were yellow corn so they were thicker and not as soft.  The appetizer plater was good and had a variety.

  Went in tonight to the another place another chance.  Our waiter was the worst.  Our food, the pork and pineapple was almost 60% fat.  Each piece of what was supposed to be meat was mostly fat.  Very very disappointing.  We told our waiter and he said he would go talk to a manger.  I watched him walk to the end the boothes where he stopped and watched tv and never spoke to a sole.   I watched him the entire time stand there and do nothing.  We paid our bill, I wrote a book about the poor food quality on the ticket and did not leave a tip.  We will not be back.  Not sure what happened to your service, staff, food products but you have failed miserably.  It does not deserve a 1 but cannot give a zero.

  We, party of 5, visited the location on Plantation road on a Saturday late afternoon around 4 and couldn't have been any less unimpressed. Between the 2 parties we spent over $100 and service was HORRIBLE!!! Elena our server was out of sight after we ordered our drinks. We had to FIND her for everything else after that. The girl that was standing near our booth was even on her phone the whole time.
  
  Now, I'm not someone that is closed minded, so I can understand when a server is stretched thin, but there was only 1 other table and 4 people at the bar so I'm not being petty. Me being optimistic, I'm thinking that the food would be great...nope, far from it. We all ordered the Baja Mahi tacos and Tacos Americanos with shredded chicken and none of the meat was seasoned, ZERO flavor. The refried beans tasted old and burnt, even the cheese queso was cold and congealing. The 2 for 1 margaritas tasted mostly like margarita mix. I ordered bean dip and didn't even get that, I would've reminded her, but I was tired of trying to find her after the 4th time, it wasn't worth the trip...and I'm not sure she could understand my English.
  
  Cons:
  -bad service
  -bland Mexican food
  -watered down alcoholic beverages on special
  -overpriced
  -extremely slow and floors were greasy/slick
  
  Pros:
  -got seated quickly (it was empty)
  -bathrooms were clean and updated
  
  In conclusion, unless you're looking for clean bathrooms to use, this establishment isn't worth your time or money.
