I've been looking for a good place to eat Mexican food and not being able to find one, I was happy to see a TEX-MEX place with good reviews. Unfortunately it was not to be, but let me start with; the décor was pretty good, they even had cactus (fake) all over the place, the atmosphere was decent and the place had a good crowd. We were happy that we got a table, even though we did not have a reservation. As for the food and drink, it was so unimpressive that I can't remember what I ordered. But it was some sort of sampler plate that had fried jalapeno with cheese that came from a bag, same for the tiny flautas- couldn't tell if they had meat or not, but they were chewy, two corn tortilla cheese enchiladas with some funky sauce that was gooey with no flavor. Follow on with the margarita I ordered, I thought I would get a margarita on the rocks, salted and a lime, but I ended up with margarita slushy with a lemon. I will give credit to the chicken on the fajitas, well seasoned and there was plenty of onions and bell peppers. So this may have been TEX-MEX when it started out, but things have changed since those days. I couldn't make out what area of the RIO-GRAND TEX/MEX their food is supposed to be from, but it isn't from any area I ever visited growing up. I will say that the German clientential seemed to enjoy it, so they are doing something right.
