“ By far the busiest of all their locations and by far the busiest Mexican restaurant in the whole town. The margarita specials are so popular they have a time limit on the tables. The food is great and super super fast. It's incredible how they pump out consistently great food and such a huge amount of it as fast as they do! Also I really I love the employees. If I was dealing with that environment I would lose my mind. They deserve some great tips. ”
