"I was ready to have some authentic Mexican food. I was very disappointed. The appetizer was suppose to be a sampler, for the main coarse was fajitas and I don’t remember what the dessert was. The sampler had a quesadilla minute cheese or any filling and everything else was fried to the point it was hard. The fajita had flavor but the meat was over done and it was chewy. The dessert was ok but I don’t like the texture because it was a little mushy. A lot of people like that texture so I’m not going to complain. It’s just a preference issue. Overall I was extremely disappointed. I was looking forward to that dinner because it’s something I am familiar with. The people were great! As far as the atmosphere it a table in a room with other tables in a room. I asked to take our dessert back to our room. However, I said can we take that “to” go. It took a second but he realized I wanted to leave with it. So he brought me one dessert for there and two covered. My mom asked if she could get hers”to “go as well so he took the plate added two of both desserts as well as the one to eat there. There was a little misunderstand but it’s just funny."
