in the last week530 reservation. The hostess called my name at 6. Then she says never mind go sit back down. Calls me again at 615. We are finally seated. Waiter says no more taco Tuesday specials bc they ended at 6. I told him reservation was at 530. He says too late now. They hand me literally pieces of photocopied paper for a menu. Then I tried to order a burrito bowl which they said no more. Tortas? Not available either. I ordered the camarones de mojo Ajo. Completely over cooked and dry. I asked for salt that never came . We asked for the lakers game to be on bc it was playoffs and that was never done either. It was an awful experience. I would not recommend.

3 weeks agoThis is my third time at the restaurant but this time was very disappointing. Food was Bland and tasteless. Environment and atmosphere were still excellent. It's so old, that their menus are fading so you can't even read the descriptions of the food items.
