Gosh I love this place.  I’ve managed to eat there twice and do take-out once, and the only thing I have not liked has nothing to do with the restaurant – it’s my kids.  They don’t yet appreciate tacos and such, so for now it’s a parents-only restaurant.

Go for lunch and you walk up and order, then go to your table.  Go for dinner (after 5pm) and you’ll get waitress service.  I don’t recall ever going to a restaurant that switched it up like this, but it works really well.  The atmosphere is fun, and there is even a bar (they make great margaritas) and a patio (overlooking the parking lot, but with nice decor).

I’ve had fish tacos (soft shell, with rice on the side) which you can get grilled or fried, and a burrito.  Each time the food has been great, and the dinner service was good as well.  No food photos on this one, my dinner company was quite good and we so busy talking I forgot!

Great spot for kids (assuming they’ll eat the food!) for lunch or dinner.
