First impression: an adorable old house! Cute plants, clean and tidy, and nicely decorated. Even the bathrooms were clean! The lady that helped us was so friendly and helpful! The food was de-licious! The bean dip is unlike any Iâve had before, the guacamole was perfect and the even the salsa was perfect. I had the Taco De Pastor, and it was perfect! So much cilantro!! My husband had Taco De Toro, and cleaned his plate. Must try this place if youâre ever around!!

Staff has a musical flare when a birthday is celebrated. They all emerge with tamborines and drum sticks and bring their talents to the table to sing Spanish Happy Birthday.We were celebrating our birthdays as well but as we saw so many other birthdays we decided the staff needed to get the food out too. So we just enjoyed watching them go to the other birthday celebrators.The food came out piping hot and full of great Mexican flavors. Love the hot and spicy so the habenaro oil with a touch of honey and agave syrup and mango sauce was fantastic on my shrimp tacos.The chicken dish my husband had was juicy and the mushroom sauce was perfect on it. My Mom's chimichanga took up the entire plate. Was fully loaded with freshly prepared food. Nothing tasted like it came from a frozen bag or a can.The staff was very polite and helpful on food suggestions.He also explained the ingredients in our margaritas. A splash of red wine..who would have thought but was a great addition to it.Be patient as you wait for your food.Hot tasty food is worth waiting for.

Chili's is one of the best restaurants in town and across the country. There is never a long wait and you can pick from a booth or table. The menu is extensive and the drinks are good. You can get unlimited refills on all soda and lemonades! All their food is great, but my favorites are the chips (only very lightly salted) and any of their salads. The best salads are the Quesadilla Explosion salad or the Caribbean salad. Their portions are large, the tastes always full of flavor and reasonable prices to boot! Nothing not to like!!
