Everything you expect and could want from a great Mexican restaurant! Great atmosphere, friendly staff that is prompt and helpful, and service was very fast. What I loved most about this place is they make there own salsa in house and it comes out warm to the table, my favorite! It was so good! They also hand make there own flour tortillas which were awesome with those steak fajitas. Everything was delicious and service was great. This is a big place so they can seat a lot of folks. They have a soft serve ice cream machine by the door to treat yourself on the way out.

Service was great, greeted immediately as we entered and seated with no wait. Food was ordered swiftly with chips and warm salsa provided. Tacos Al carbon weren’t as flavorful as I would have liked but my wife’s enchiladas were amazing! Our drinks were great and well made.

Classic TexMex from the past that is delicious! This time I had a jalapeno popper wrapped in bacon to start and carne guisada ( both outstanding) with a margarita on the rocks...YUM! Great prices, too. Tia Maria's is a favorite go-to for us. More

Based only on the hot salsa, cool green sauce, chili con queso, and house margarita this is a 5-star joint for sure! Anyone noting them less doesn't deserve theirs hands to write the review! I didn't order too much food but Joshua hooked it up. I will be back probably every single week! Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

Came here for lunch the other day and the food was decent. The place was super busy so service slow which is understandable but we never got drinks refills. The chicken was dry but the beef was tasty. The chips and queso were very good though.
