  Sometimes it can taste really good. I always got shredded beef, enchiladas or burritos. It's seems like about 1/3 of the time it would not be good. I don't want to go in to detail. This is my first food review. I've been thinking about it for a year before writing. After the last time I called and the said I could come back for a free meal which I never went back for. Would eat there 1-2 times a week if the food was consistent, the prices weren't so high, and if they actually seemed concerned about someone calling about a bad meal. Probably had 10 that I didn't call about. No more for me.

  I had a pretty bad experience here last night. I ordered an 'uno plato' (10.95) and chose a Chile rellano as my one item. The header over the whole category says the entrees come with beans and rice and lists the choices of meat. I asked for pork...I repeated my order twice as the waitress said she was new and not familiar with the menu yet. We got our food and started eating and I noticed my Chile rellano didn't have any meat. I told the waitress and she seemed confused and said she hadn't heard me say pork....She flustered around a bit and finally said they would make me another one with pork, but it would be a la carte. Totally fine with me. Someone else came out a little later with a full plate of food including the rice and beans and asked if it was for us. I said they were supposed to be making a new Chile rellano for me, but I didn't think that was it since it was the whole meal and not a la carte. She went back to the kitchen, but came back and said yes, it was for me. Great! The problem came when the waitress brought the check...I was there with 2 friends and we wanted the check split. The waitress said "What, you want it split 3 ways? Don't you have a calculator on your phone? Just divide it by 3, that's what we do." We had to explain we wanted it split based on what each of us ordered. I then asked her why my order amount (10.95) had been crossed out and changed to 13.95 on the bill. She said that the chile rellano didn't come with meat and so she had to charge me the higher amount for something else (I forget what she called it). I said "It says on the top, 'choice of meat' and my friend ordered the dos platos and both of her items included meat" (taco and enchilada I think-chosen from 'above' like the chile rellano is as the menu states)-she proceeded to argue with me that it said 'choicES of meat' (not choice of meat" as if that explained everything-I told her I didn't understand how that was different. I said, "If it doesn't come with meat, your menu is very unclear because it doesn't say that". She argued with me about it for a minute and then left-she came back with a menu and just sat down in our booth with us and said "Ok, let me talk to you about the menu for a minute" in a very defensive and argumentative way. She said the chile rellano doesn't ever come with meat, so they had to charge me that higher price. I was very frustrated at this point-she never gave a good enough reason to charge me more and there was never anything on the menu that said anything about the chile rellano not including meat. Even if that was true, she should have mentioned it when I ordered or when I told her I didn't have meat and she went to get a new one made. To not ever mention that she would be changing it to a higher price until I see it on the check is totally unprofessional and should be something they corrected, not argued with me about. She was argumentative, rude, and unapologetic-she lost out on a tip from all 3 of us because of her behavior. I will not be returning.
