    Was excited to bring friends here from out of town and we were let down. Service was dismal, our food came out at different times, and food was not nearly as good as it used to be.

    Cash only. Server will take time letting you know this. As a partial Texan, I wasn't wowed. Queso was thick and carnitas dry.
