Appeared to be a fun place for a last minute stop. Service was a tad slow for what appeared to be medium capacity. Food was okay. Carne asada was seasoned albeit a different flavor than expected and somewhat unique. Salsa and dip was served with chips but the salsa lacked flavor. The portions were very generous.

Always amazing. Always hits the spot. Prices are great but even if they weren't I would still come. The inside is nice and the music is great and happy. We always have the same server, Oscar, and he is just our favorite ever. He is always smiling and kind. The queso dip with chorizo is only $9 is so heavenly. I love the poblanos enchiladas because the sauce is just so delicious. My boyfriend swears these are the best coronas he's ever had. We also love the poblano soup and the Mero Mero Chicken Burrito and the Chimichanga.

My husband and I went Friday as I've been craving some Mexican food! We loved that they brought out chips and three different types of dip. The chips were great; all dips lacked flavor and were generally bland. I did La Tradicional for a margarita and was surprised by how it lacked any flavor whatsoever. Never have I had a margarita that tasted like nothing, not even a hint of lime. We both got fajitas. I did chicken and my husband chicken and steak. Maybe because we're picky, but these were such tiny pieces of meat, not what we would normally get in fajitas. They were flavorful, but not what we expected. The guacamole served with my husbands fajitas was brown as can be and should not have been given to anyone. We would have said something, but our waitress never came by to check on us and just dropped the check off after we were waiting for it. Never asked if we wanted dessert either. Overall, just disappointed in the general blandness of the food and not sure we'll be back.

My wife ordered food for our Anniversary tonight on her way home from work. She had an issue with picking up the take out order at the restaurant. She gets home and we sat down to enjoy our meals. Well, at least the rice and the chips & cheese were edible. Our chicken chimichangas were loaded with onions, peppers, and tomatoes (which I do have an allergy to). It tastes like it was cooked in the scraps from the bottom of the garbage disposal (yes I tried to eat some). This was the worst meal I've ever had from Mexican restaurant, due to my allergy to tomatoes and dislike of peppers and onions my go to is Chicken Chimichangas.

The vibe is fun and festive with a twist on the traditional Mexican decor being the Day of the Deaf celebration. The gluten free options are wide and plentiful, as it typically is with authentic Mexican food. Free corn chips with a three dipping options are served on arrival. The green salsa is delicious! They made me a jalapeño Margarita from scratch with an upgrade request instead of the premixed house Margarita.The steak fajita was good with a sauce that was different from what I've had in the past but it worked. I will return the staff and service, food and environment are all great and with so many gluten free options it's easy to try different dishes.

The best Mexican food in the area. The staff were great and the place was clean. We highly recommend getting their guacamole because it is made right by your table! You can choose what ingredients to put in (tomato, cilantro, onions and/or jalapeños).

We went there with a large group of women. We were seated promptly, after setting up a reservation.We are ordered drinks, one app, and order main dishes as well. The food came really quickly. The drinks did too. We had everything from a glass of red wine to a frozen pomegranate margarita. All the drinks were great as well.It was a busy Friday night, and we noticed just a tad of service lacking. Our waters weren't refilled, nobody came to the table until almost the very end of the meal to ask if we needed anything else, but we did order some dessert as well.The food was great. Amble portions, they didn't skimp on the right stuff, and nothing taste processed.I definitely will be back.

This was great find on a Saturday night. Didn't expect it to be in a plaza, but low and behold ... the plaza has other cuisine options, just in case.Tequila is small, modern, yet flashes of culture decorate this establishment. But don't expect the traditional chips and salsa, no. You get a trio of dips: tomatillo, Chipotle, and a roasted house blend. None are too think, save the chipotle; and the chips are not salty either. So, a great start to the evening.We sat at the bar (which I personally love), so drinks were prompt and delicious. We order the Espresso Martini, for her, and I asked for an extra spicy margarita to start. The martini was on point, and the spicy margarita hit those notes that I adore, just the right amount of punch to get my taste buds going.I wasn't hungry, so she ordered the Diego Tacos, based off the recommendation of the bartender. The chicken was good, but if you're used to grilled, make sure you ask. It came with Mexican rice and refried beans, but you can sub in black beans and white rice (we later discovered). To finish off the night I order the margaritas flight - 3 of their choices, which all had their own unique taste. One was guaca, one had maple syrup (don't knock it til you try it), and one had mezcal (another favorite of mine, the smokiness is just killer). The guava was too sweet, but I'd hit up the mezcal margarita eight days a week.4 out of 5 stars, only because I had to keep flagging down the bartender to order.

Came here on a Saturday night with one other person and had an overall good experience. The service was great and so was the atmosphere. Very causal place. The menu was decent but nothing super impress stood out. I ordered fajitas, and they were mediocre, which is the main reason for the 4 stars. Portions were generous, and I definitely left full.
