    The food food and drinks are good and we love the patio area. The food is typical authentic Mexican. We would've liked if they had other options and beans other than refried like Charro or something. The front desk attendant was very friendly and accommodating. The only complaint would be about halfway through our meal they turned the music up really loud on the patio and we could hardly have a conversation with our out-of-town guest. We asked them if they could please turn it down a bit bc it had become significantly louder than we had first and seated. They told us they would have to check first, weird,  because why didn't they have to check before they turned it up? Anyway, we come here when we have friends from out of town and we want a nicer atmosphere for typical Mexican food.

    The waiter was horrible providing service to us. The food was bad but he didn't even bother asking how was everything. Overall the food and the service from the waiter was bad. The runner and the bus boys were providing better service than him. If I have my choice I would give all of the tips (which we were obligated to give 20%) to them instead of the waiter.

    The fajitas came well done steak when we asked for medium rare. There was no pink. They took the meat off the plate and left the shrimp, beans and rice. By the time they brought medium rare meat back the rice beans and shrimp were no longer hot. The shrimp was also way over cooked and tough but edible.

    Food was delicious and came out very fast. We ordered the chicken mole and it was a decent portion. The service was good - felt a little rushed but the server though. Overall, it was good. Beautifully decorated inside for a location at a mall.
