a month ago1st time visiting this restaurant and the service and atmosphere were very unnerving, to say the least. I wasn’t greeted, and it took a full 3–4 minutes just to receive a menu — and the place wasn’t even busy. Nevertheless, I still placed an order, and for my food to cost $31.90, the entire meal was incorrect. I called last night and was told someone would contact me — never received a call. Today, I spoke with a very rude female (twice) who said the manager, Brandon, would call me back. Once again, I never received a call. I then called back three additional times and no one answered. Worst experience I’ve had so far in Tuscaloosa. Thank God for Amex, because I’m sure they wouldn’t have refunded me. Poor management and very disappointing customer service. I highly recommend y’all get it together.

a month agoEnded up stopping in on a whim and we had the best food and service. We will definitely be back. The chorizo queso was amazing and our entrees were as well. We had birria tacos, Mahi bowl, chicken and rice, and a chimichanga.
