Good place for Mexican food. Our family went here during Memorial Day weekend for a late Sunday night dinner. There was no wait and we were quickly seated. The service was friendly and fast. Positives: kid friendly, great candy shop nearby, decent food, fast service, no wait, good atmosphere

Negatives: tables too close together, hard to get in and out without bumping other people's chairs, the supposedly featured live entertainment was non-existent - we didn't see them once, tortillas were a bit tough, the kid's menu very limited and mostly fried food, margaritas did not wow.

Again, the restaurant really needs to list healthy choices on the kids menu. The chicken nuggets we ordered were tiny pieces of fried chicken, in fact - so tiny it was hard to find the chicken among all the fried stuff on top. Not healthy at all. Otherwise, good place in good location.

Authentic Mexican? C'mon San Diego... Can't you do better?. We just had dinner there tonight -- to end our week long trip to SD. What a disappointment. Guess our expectations were too high. We have a better restaurant in Cleveland for Mexican restaurant than this place. First - our server was pathetically slow. He never brought the tortillas for the dinner -- and when we finally asked -- he was shocked we didn't have them -- like he had brought them already. Our drinks were empty for at last 10 minutes until we had to ask for refills. My meal had good flavor -- pretty skimpy on the sour cream. My husband got faijtas-- I have never seen such a small portion in any restaurant we've ever been to. And --the tortillas when we finally got them tasted like flour. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone -- and we will not be back. I hope there are better places in SD for Mexican because this one is really not worth the effort.

Check your reciept. While the food was great i had a problem with the tip being written in by someone after the fact. When i complained to the manager i was basically told i was a liar. As a result of this I have recommended my company no longer do business here. I would suggest if you tip in cash to note that on the reciept. manager cares more about 10 dollars than the lost business it would seem.
