I am originally from New Mexico so I know good Mexican food and this place is absolutely horrible. Many of my local Columbus friends insist on going there (bless thier hearts they don't know better) and every time I unwilling tag along I REGRET it. The sad thing is they have Mexican's working in the kitchen and they should know better than to serve this stuff. The food has a funny taste and is not prepared in true Mexican style (it is more like Tex-Mex). Sorry El Vaquero I have to give you a big thumbs down.

Cons: Just bad mexican food

Insider Tips

Know Before You Go

The sauces are savory, and generally the spices are medium-strength. If you're looking for something with more kick, reach for the Chalula's on the table.
