For our first time here it was a very good experience.
I found it on Google and read most reviews all good.
But in my own opinion it is good BUT...
the tortillas taste like reheated not freshly made meaning they will make the inside stuff example I ordered a flour tortilla w/chorizo, egg & potato and it was good except the tortilla it is as if it was sitting there and when you reheat it gets hard and gives you a ugly taste it kills the taste to the food.
I guess I will order this in as a dish rather in a tortilla.
The size is decent, but that was my only complaint.
Now I really appreciate the fact that they have a buffet, but what makes it even better is that they have someone serving what you would like on your plate.
I personally prefer that technique because many people are not very well-mannered and just make a mess.
Or get more than what they will eat.
And end up throwing away and a eaist of foods.
In this case, keep the buffet bar nice and clean and more appetizing.
If you want more, just go ask, and they will serve you.
That is a plus.
The place is very nice and cozy the staff is very friendly and my waitress was very nice.
I will go back again, but this time, I will order the dish with the tortilla on the side.
Maybe it will be fresh this time and not preheated.
Prices are reasonable and very well served, so I do recommend it here.

Great spot for breakfast they have all you can eat buffet and a la carte too I ordered the flour barbacoa taco it was huuge and delicious .

Every time I come here I'm always amazed on how delicious the food is.
The fajita meat is so tender and juicy that you just want more of it.
The waiters and waitresses are very polite and friendly so you feel very welcomed.
I totally recommend this to anyone who wants delicious Mexican meals for a great price.
It never disappoints so go and give it a try.
