The food is extremely bland and boring. Service was okay, not the best. Just enjoy the chips, salsa, a beer and the scenery outside and you'll be okay.

The sewage pipe burst, but the food was still good... We'll see how I feel tomorrow.

Some of the worst Mexican I've had in a while... horrible salsa, nasty Chile Relleno and yucky enchiladas! Soooooooooooo disheartening- keep walking and sont look back!

Worst garbage mexicrap food ever. They cater to tourists so it’s a one and done situation. Inedible and pathetic.

Pretty pricey. Okay place though as far as service. Don't agree with their gratitude charge though.

refused to give us our reward. Said we had to have a print copy, but how are you suppose to print if you check in on the spot.

Cups were dirty, service poor especially for a slow Wednesday afternoon and the chips were stale. Go across the street to Casa Rio it's way better.

The only redeeming quality of this place is that it is on the river. The food is very bland.

Pretty awful. Other places are worth the wait.

Good margaritas, but food wasn't that great. And they don't give free tortillas. I thought the food was overpriced for the taste and quality.

Don't ask for a lemon or a cosmo.

Drinks are okay, but take your appetite somewhere else

Not great place!! The food took so long and and it wasn't good at all. I have had better. Choose other Mexican restaurant!

Baja fish tacos are banging!

Don't eat here! Food is blander than bland! Service sucks! Done eating and still don't know who the server is!
Ryan McAnallyJune 7, 2013
Don't bother, unless you love bland food and terrible service.
Tricia R.April 20, 2012
Don't eat here. The shrimp enchiladas were not good. Sopapillas were drowning in a syrupy sauce. Go to Boudro's next door.
Courtney VitulloApril 13, 2013
Service was crap. I had to ask if we still had a waiter.
Ryan ReadDecember 26, 2012

Susy StoneSeptember 29, 2010
I didn't like it. I ordered fajitas and got shredded beef.

Worst Mexican food on the river walk!! Nothing redeemable!
Lisa JohnstonSeptember 30, 2012
This place would not let our party of four sit at a 6 chair table that had been empty waiting on a bigger party. There were at least 6 empty tables and they just didn't want to accommodate us!!!
