We love this neighborhood gem, the owners are there every day and really love their customers. The food is good and they have plenty of blended drinks and Mexican beers to keep you happy. The Quesadillas and nachos are so good and pair well while drinking and their large tortilla bowl sald is always great.

Meat in burrito was burnt as if it was leftover meat. They've forgotten my drink and had to drive back to get it, they've realized they forgot to add it and had the nerve to charge me the $2 instead of providing it as a courtesy for driving back. The drink cup had some black fuzz. Then my kids' fries had a long strand of hair at the bottom of the fries. Too expensive for this quality and service. First and last time.

We've been coming here for YEARS! always great service, big smiles and great food. Tonight especially showed us how awesome the service was. We went to haciendas waited an hr to be seated after being told for 30 mins we were next. Then to be seat in a got room with flies. Noone asked for our drink order. After 20 mins we left. PANCHOS SAVED THE NIGHT!

Big portions,friendly and attentive staff but there is something .. some type of spice in the shredded beef that they put waaaay too much of ... it overpowers the good taste potential that the shredded beef could have. Also, wish they would make home made spanish rice rather than the frozen bag one.. the rice taste similar to El Pollo Loco type. Homemade would be way better and authentic tasting.

We ordered take out. Got the gigante salad with shredded beef and 3 item combo. They also gave us a bag of chips and salsa. It took longer than the 20 minutes they told us over the phone, but the order was exactly right and delicious! We were very happy. I LOVE their salsa. It's not too spicy, but nice pieces of onion and cilantro in it. Their beans and shredded beef are also great. We will for sure be back. They have "dine in" at their parking lot with some easy ups and foldable chairs and tables as well.
