This place will give you the worst experience you could ever have. I received cold food, I asked for a manager and the waitress tried to pass himself as the manager. This place needs a competent staff.

I had been to one of these restaurants before. This one is a bit fancier than the others however I was very disappointed in the choice of meat they used for the steak picado plate. The meat had a heavy refrigerated taste and was high in chewy fat that i couldnt eat. The wet burrito my father ordered had the same problem as the server said it was the same cuts of meat, but the server exchanged his plate for a chilaquiles plate which he did enjoy very much.

The sauce for the steak picado plate was delicious and the rice and beans were great. The only downside was the low quality meat. There were 10 tables around us that were full and everyone was enjoying their food so try it for yourself and let me know what you thought.

We had a small gathering party at this location it turn out pretty good. The reason I gave them a 4 star because I order camaron de ajo the shrimp smelled like funky didn't taste that good.

Food 5 stars, but service 1 star…. Waiters don’t acknowledge you. I was standing around for several minutes waiting to pick up an order, no one greeted me nor bother to ask if I needed assistance.

The food is good. Second time for me expecting a better margarita and it was the same. The server went to my table two times. One to take the order and one to.give as our check. Not a good experience this time. No a third time.

More of a night club than restaurant. At least the one in Downey. Too crowded n too expensive for what it is. It went from a nice family restaurant to a very out of control restaurant/night club. I gotta say that this was a couple of years ago. Not sure how it is now!

Way overpriced for the amount that is being charged, steak was bland, I thought I was eating tofu instead of being cheese thats placed on the lava bowl. Drinks were ok, but you can get that somewhere else with either the same or better results. The nopal was pretty good and the waiter was on point. I did have it as a one star but then I remembered I had the flan w/ coconut on it, originally ordered just the plain one but somehow they ran out by 1700 so I ate the flan w/ coconut which was pretty good. Other than that I don't believe I will be going again.

The food menu was okay the only thing I didn't like was the prices they're a lot higher but fine. We order fresh aguas and molcajete food was good, the rice was a little hard and overall wasn't bad but I'm not going back again any time soon.

I give this place a star for effort. I went there last night on June 22,2021. I ordered a super burrito and got the carne asada for a dollar more. When the plates were brought to the table they said be careful because it were hot. Well as i dug in the meat insude the burrito was cold along with the rice. On top of that it didnt taste freshly made. The meat was kind of chewy with some nerves. The meat i paid extra for was not carne asada. It was boiled down regular steak meat. The salmon plate they brough my friends son was just 2 small salmon stakes.you kidding me for $22.looked too bland. The costa azul plate also was wortj the 20 dallar plate. A top of that we waited fir the waiter a long time even to give us our check. I will definitely not be coming back unless its with a group of friends to hear the music. As for the food it was a deception just like el torito. I had a to go box when left over. I so wanted to leave that I forgot it. Wasnt worth going back in for.

My first time here and most likely won't be back. The service was excellent, the waiter was ver attentive. But the tostada mixta I ordered, was not good at all! The tomatoes looked like they were chopped a day or 2 earlier. And the seafood was warm. IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE COLD! ‍️‍️
