" Awful experience! The tacos tasted frozen and microwaved. They were flat and lifeless. The service was very off, with staff who didn’t know the menu. I believe the location is fooling people into thinking it'll be good; trust me, it’s not worth it! " (*Curated Review*)

" The atmosphere is the only bright spot of this restaurant. I was looking for authentic Mexican food, but I ended up with lackluster dishes and questionable freshness. My food came out cold, and when I requested a hot salsa, they served me something out of a can. Management seemed dismissive when I mentioned it. " (*Curated Review*)

" You'd think a restaurant in Old Town would offer decent Mexican food, but this place fell flat. The service was nonexistent, and the food felt recycled. My chicken enchiladas were unappetizing, and I had to ask twice for my bill! Save your time and money. " (*Curated Review*)

" Decided to pop in for a quick bite, but seriously regretted it. I ordered the California burrito and it was bland and dry. Extremely overpriced for what you get. Even the guacamole was subpar. The staff seemed overwhelmed and looked like they were arguing with each other. Not worth it. " (*Curated Review*)

" Very disappointed with the quality of food. The tacos tasted like frozen leftovers. Why would anyone want to eat here? I paid too much for the horrible experience. It doesn't help that the staff seemed overwhelmed and unfriendly. I should have listened to the reviews! " (*Curated Review*)

" Don't even consider dining here! The nachos tasted stale, and I can't even call them nachos because there was hardly any cheese. It was just a poorly slapped together plate. There's plenty of good restaurants in Old Town, save yourself the trouble! " (*Curated Review*)

" This restaurant really does not seem to care about the basics of treats customers well. I had a server who lost my order and found it to be an inconvenience to fix. The food was lackluster at best and overpriced for what it was. I can't recommend it. " (*Curated Review*)
