One of the blander options for (tex-)mex food but it's hearty and has more flavour and spice than Mad Mex. Can't compare to Guzman though.

Can't say I liked the soft tacos that much but my girlfriend said best quesidilla she's ever had and we eat at Guzmans , Mad Mex and Beach Burritos a bit so I'm giving them a 6 for food.

The food was ok. We had some tacitos, dripping in oil and not much filling, then some quesilladas. The serving was quite big but it was all a bit bland. Reminded me of a store bought Old El Paso meal only not as nice and more expensive. Plastic forks dulled the atmosphere. Service was friendly.

Went there for brunch. Nice food, but the staff acted like they had never seen a customer before. Such a shame, I hope they improve their service so they can be around for years to come.

The food is bland, small and overpriced. Do not eat here if you enjoy spicy food. The service is slow and incompetent.

Great place for a beer and a snack as the ambience is great but have never had a worse margarita. Had to return it for a beer. The quesadilla was the pick of the meals and the salsa was very good. Not sure what they are using instead of avocado and sour cream but it is tasteless and looks terrible. Staff are very friendly but let down by plastic cutlery and poor food.

I can't recommend this place more highly for weekend brunch, I can't believe there weren't more people! Great huevos rancheros (one of my favourites) and the service is always really good.

The atmosphere is quite nice once you're nestled into one of the chunky wooden tables, almost doesn't seem like you're in the Cross! I couldn't get thru my whole meal, was rather massive, but the fresh salsa, huge pile of guacamole, along with the mass of bacon and potato sitting under my eggs, were really tasty.

The only thing I would say is it's a little weird eating such nice food on plastic plates with plastic utensils. Also, their hot sauces are not only hot, but tasty as well, I think I may have to go back and buy a bottle or two.

This place is awesome. Great food at a great price with great friendly service. With your average main costing about $10, you can't go wrong. The food taste very fresh and far better than your average mexican!

Food is fine, nice pleace to go: was horrified by price of the Sangria jug we drank! over $30! Just stick to the food or alcohol by the glass and it's great value.

These guys are the bomb when it comes to Mexican. Ask for Bill the owner. His jokes are corny but it is great service. The food is fresh and there are a tonne of options. I love their range of Mexican beers and Tequilas. We will be back that is for sure.
