I'm not sure how they did it, but they somehow have managed to make Taco Bell look like fine Mexican cuisine. I take it that this was a fine restuarant 5-10 years ago. As of now, a huge disappointment. Rock bottom, all around.

Pros: If your colon lacks natural bacteria, this could be an excellent place to "germ up".

Cons: Nightmare food quality.

To be concise, the food is horrible and overpriced for the lack of quality...the staff is rude...and the place had a bad smell...I wonder if they even passed a health inspection. It appears they have gone completely downhill reading the other reviews. I guess I am happy I did not get a piece of hair in my food...yuck!

Pros: none

Cons: too many to write here

First, I thought this was a good restaurant until I found a short, curly black hair in my food today. I complained to a staff person, but she was unsympathetic. She stated that it was probably my hair. I am blonde, so short, black curly hairs do not fall from my head. I just hope it was from someone's head and not from somewhere else south of the border. Next time you decide to eat here, ask if they USE hair nets and not just own them as you might lose your appetite pulling a hair out of your mouth. I might have tolerated my experience better if they were willing to apologize. I did not even get my money back for my take-out order. Even the food was below average. There are two other Mexican restaurants near Enchiladas y Mas that are much better...go there for better food without the hair.

Pros: if you need hair in your food, then this is your place!

Cons: if you do not like cheap tex-mex especially with hair, this is not your place

I totally disagree with the 2006 descrition of this place. They completely messed up my order and would not take it back. Even eating what I did not order I could tell the ingredients were cheap. Made me think that you could buy an El Paso taco kit and make a better taco and salad. Who knows, maybe they use a taco kits in their kitchen. Another minu is their horrible salsa. I get better salsa from a jar from the grocery store. Another tip...Asians do not go there...the hostess was very friendly to a Spanish speaking customer but immediately gave me a hard time despite just standing in line for my order. This is just a bad restaurant.

Pros: none

Cons: ingredients, service, bad, very bad food

This place use to be really good. 2-3 years ago. The hot sauce is made from canned tomatoes and taste bad(old). The food was not good, bad cheese and not hot enough. The fajitas use to be great, now they sux. And yes, they started mopping the floor when my party was about to eat, at 3:00 pm. Poor service on refills. Eat elsewhere.

Pros: use to be good a few years back

Cons: now it is not good

I was absolutely disgusted!!! They started cleaning before our food came out and the smell was horrible. This ruined any chance of us enjoying our food. The food wasn't good (or it just could have been altered by the smell in the dining room). I went here because it was recommended here, but after this will not be back.

Cons: Strong cleaning solutions used while we were dining /smelled horrible

I will never be ordering from this restaurant ever again after the awful service I received. I called in for a pick up order, the person was distracted and rude and did not read my order back to me - when I came to pick it up it was wrong and I was actually yelled at!!! They demanded to know who would be paying for the incorrect food and took over an hour to finally produce the correct dishes. This place needs a SERIOUS readjustment!!!

Cons: WORST SERVICE I'VE EVER EXPERIENCED!!!!

If you are looking for some fancy Tex-Mex or you are used to Cal-Mex or some other form of Mexican food(Yankee-Mex?), the this is not the place for you. This is pure Tex-Mex not to be confused with more traditional Mexican food. Their fajitas are just simply the best that I have had in town, although they are not for the weak as they can be pretty spicy. Their salsa is also fresh made and can also vary from fairly hot to scorching. I can't say their margaritas are the best, but they are good enough(sometimes a little too good). It can get very busy so if you go during peak business hours , expect a little wait.

Pros: GRREEAT Fajitas

Cons: Can get crowded.

After hearing people rave about this place my expectations were pretty high. Needless to say, my girlfriend and I were both very disappointed by this place. We ordered combo fajitas for two and they were worse than what you can get at a freakin’ Chili’s. The meat was greasy and way too spicy. Moreover, the margaritas were sub-par, the cheese was terrible, the tortillas were average, the decor was non existent, the service was poor, and the wait was long. In a town bursting at the seams with thoroughbred Tex-Mex joints this place is a dud.

Avoid the cheese enchiladas at all costs unless you are a big fan of Velveeta. The green sauce tastes like it is straight from the can. The only passable thing was the salsa.

Pros: none

Cons: All the worst elements of old school tex-mex and none of the good
