Hands down my favorite casual restaurant in the valley. I've found everything to be really good but my favorites are tacos , jalapeño relenos and any Margarita on the menu.

Being from the California, where there are lots of different kinds of Mexican restaurants , I found that the wait staff was great, food not.

The refried beans used to be vegetarian . The refried beans are apparently no longer vegetarian . This is displeasing. Please bring back the vegetarian refried beans !

Expansion is now open. Still busy though. Early on Monday seems like a slow time if you don't want to wait.

Wait is always long (ie. don't expect to wait less than 30 minutes ever), but worth it.
