not very "mexican" and not cheap either
any mexican restaurant where you have to pay for the chips is disqualified immediately!

Terrible service and cramped space. Food is average. Never the same since ownership changed hands. Senorita's destroys this place.

Me and my friends go often, for years, and have always enjoyed eating here. Food is good, atmosphere (though loud) is fun and upbeat.

This resturant was once known for delicious food, fair prices, and a friendly atmosphere. Now it is destitute and overpriced. Save your time

Not as good as Jose Tejas or South of the Border. Seems better suited for college students to eat at.

Horrible food! My chicken tacos were soggy and tasteless. How can this place be called Mexican or even Tex-Mex?

Don't be too critical here, expecting good Mexican food in Jersey is like an Italian expecting good pizza in Califronia!

As a true fan of Mexican food - this is very disappointing and unimpressive. Do yourself a favor and go elsewhere and the chips are stale

Stale tortilla on our burritos, flavorless rice and beans, cold quesadillas and orange juice with pulp as the "citrus" dressing. Never again

Standaard Mexican fare is good, but some of the more imaginative dishes are really delicious.
