Since the first thing you get at a Mexican restaurant is chips and salsa, I'll start there. The chips were warm and the salsa was spicy and good.

Our party of four ordered:
* cheese quesadillas
* quesadilla with chicken and spinach
* mixed fajita dinner
* tacos de carne Asada

I got the tacos, and they were only so-so. A bit too dry. If I was rating based just on my lunch, the food would have been a 3.0, but I tried a bite of the chicken quesadilla, which was very good, and the other meals got positive reviews, as well. Service was good.

We are visiting Clarksville for a week and decided to try this restaurant We were seated promptly and were given a basket of chips and salsa. Chips were good, they were served warm. Salsa tasted like it came out of the jar. Not fresh at all. Two of us had the frajitas and they were fine. Nothing spectacular. Two of us had a combination plate. Mixed reviews again. Tacos were OK. Tostitos were awful. Plate filled with runny refried beans. Neither one of us ate them. Margaritas were OK but thought the 7.75 price tag was a little steep. Probably would not return to this restaurant.

My family and I stopped here for lunch on Sunday Sep. 25 after visiting Baby land general / cabbage patch land. It was ok but not the best mexican food we've had during our travels. My family loves mexican food and we eat mexican food often, and this place was average. The service was poor. We got in quickly and sat down quickly (no wait) but it took awhile for us to even get acknowledged by a server and then longer to get our simple drinks (water, lemonade, and soft drinks -> nothing complicated). He finally took our order and the food came within a reasonable time afterwards. It took awhile to get refills as well during the meal and twice another waitress actually refilled our drinks while our male server was walking around doing whatever. The restrooms also need a very good cleaning as well and to be stocked.
