Anyone tried?

I have just found this place, and I cant stop thinking about it.
It is as good as the hype?
Cost is about 20.00 buffett style mexican resturant.

It's on Siegen and it is good. I've been surprised how much I enjoyed it the 3-4 times we've been.

It's been about a year since I've been. Obviously it's a buffet so you can try everything you want.

The difference that I found is that they don't just leave things under a heat lamp. They'll bring out maybe 4 burritos etc so everything is pretty fresh.

They had some sort of burrito topped with queso that was delicious.

Lunch buffet is mid, but dinner buffet is seriously good.

Went once many years ago and literally had bugs crawling out of my food. Never had the desire to go back.

Haven't been in 25 years, but have a few friends that say it's still solid. Need to try it again soon.

Just got lost in the shuffle as BR taquerias became plentiful.

Well, to be fair, BR streets that change names when you go through an intersection is confusing if you don't live here.

Why would I make this up? It was many years ago and there were bugs crawling in the food. Little small roach/beetle type bugs.

Plenty of health violations listed Click here and search el magey.

And yes, I know all restaurants have violations. I’m not saying don’t go there but for those who think I made up a story, there are plenty of violations listed.

Part of that BR charm. Can live on North Acadian and tell everyone you live on LSU Avenue

The next time you go, try their melon drink. It is insanely good, especially on a hot summer day.

Sixth you need to check yourself again, you're becoming a turd.

Why? Because I told the facts of what happened when I dined there? I didn’t bash them. I didn’t claim they have bugs now. I didn’t say don’t go there. And I’m a turd who is making up stories?

I said years ago, there were bugs and I haven’t been back. Then I get a response saying I’m lying. What’s wrong with that?

Whent for lunch Saturday.
I really enjoyed it.
Not saying it was amazing.
But it was good for buffett food.

Im wanting to go back.
I want to try the melon drink, like people are saying.

Dinner might be to try, the next hitch up there.
