I hear the margs are great


Negative. Tasting like sugar water. No lime, no tequila

really good guac and salsa


Gauc was browning already. Salsa extremely mild. Chips nothing special but good

quote:

that queso might have just very very closely resembled velveeta


It was velveeta for sure. Hardened into a rock

Overall not impressed by the food or drinks. Decor was good. Waitress/waiter needed to settle in and by a little more calm but nothing big.

I went this past weekend.

Food and Drink menu descriptions were awful and the food was not very good.

Jalapeño margarita was good, but on the small side (celery salt rim was gross)

The salsa was good, but they ran out of green sauce before I got to try it.

They have all you can eat salad (i think this comes with the fajitas someone else ordered) which was soggy and gross shredded iceberg lettuce, corn, tomatoes and pinto beans. Prob had the most flavor out of every thing we ate, which is a very bad thing.

Queso had a strange flavor similar to ranch dressing powder. Plenty of places make a decent queso and use some kind of Velveta like product. This is just a bad queso.

Chicken enchiladas were very bland and dry, side items: refried beans had no seasoning and the mexican rice was very bland, overcooked, and mushy.

They need to fix their menu and food quickly if they want to survive. Way better Mexican and Tex-Mex all over baton rouge
