Nothing happened to warrant the attitude, so not sure what the issue there was. The woman who greeted us, and brought our chips/salsa and took our drink order, was very pleasant, but our actual server, he seemed less than pleased to be working the table. The Flautas were great, white meat, not dry and fried perfectly crisp the Taco was very good and the Enchiladas were filled with cheese and the sauce was great! The rice and beans were also pretty tasty and the salsa had a bite, but it wasn't too hot! These plates were overflowing, so the prices being reasonable, you definitely get your monies worth. So we could have a sampling, we ordered Flautas and a dinner plate with Taco and Enchiladas. The food here is EXCEPTIONAL!! We had their Queso, which was not as thick as some I've had, but the taste ranked way high by comparison. There we some other tables in an adjoining room, but not very many. It isn't a large restaurant, so in the main room there were only about 7/8 tables. Tables were spaced out for social distancing. To their timeline, we were seated right at an hour after we got there. During our wait outside, we saw a significant amount of take-away, so they do appear to be a popular restaurant. We got there around 7 pm and, due to capacity limits, there was an hour wait. This Tex-Mex restaurant is definitely local, and not a tourist destination, unless your a tourist who looks for off the beaten path.
