Excellent food at a good price and if you come right after the lunch rush you get lots of attention. Despite the late lunch, all of the chips were very fresh with a fresh salsa that still had a little crunch to the onions. The jalapeno salsa is a little on the spicy side for those that don't go that route. The regular salsa did not have much spiciness, so should be good for most tastes. The Fajita Bowl looked a lot better before I dug in, sorry. Was really hungry and forgot to get this pic at the beginning. The rice, beans, and all other components are not layered, but massed around. You have to stir it up a little if you want a good combination of flavors. The sauteed, whole, mushrooms made for a great addition in place of traditional proteins. For a lunch portion, this was quite generous. The "fried" ice cream is not fried, but was freshly rolled in sweetened corn flakes so had a nice crispiness. The cinnamon and sugar on the tortilla bowl was perfect and also freshly fried.

The service, food and ambiance are always amazing. Yesterday we enjoyed the Tacos Al Pastor platters and mimosas. They were on special for the day. Associates are considerate, knowledgeable and personable. It's always a great vibe.

Great place for lunch/dinner overlooking Boardwalk pond. The food was delicious and they offer many vegetarian options. I tried the Bombay Chimichanga. It was loaded with veggies and the sauce was great! The staff is very patient, polite and we had a lovely lunch experience.

Love this place. The view of the lake is to die for. They have the best margaritas also. The food is excellent. I love getting lunch here with my partner. Just moved to Charlotte and couldn't be happier or more satisfied.

We love the food it was so delicious we will come back. Everything was perfect food, service great.

Mexican food and ambiance exactly as you would expect, except so much better. There was even a mariachi band playing around the restaurant while we were there adding to the wonderful atmosphere. The wait staff worked as a team to make sure that our needs were met without skipping a beat. The food was excellent and the atmosphere warm and cozy. Highly recommended.

This restaurant was a short drive from our hotel and had good reviews, so we were excited to try it out. They gave our table chips and salsa to start with, and the chips were nice and warm. We were given a mild salsa, so my mom asked for the hotter one. For my meal, I got the quesadillas, which were two quesadillas with cheddar cheese and chicken. It came with lettuce, sour cream, and guacamole. It also is supposed to come with tomatoes and onions, but I asked for it without them. The presentation was lovely and the quesadilla was really tasty and savory. The service was also really good! The people working were super nice and welcoming. We also mentioned we were in town for my sister's birthday, so they sang for her which was super nice.

Came in with a party of six and they were able to accommodate us immediately! The restaurant atmosphere was super nice and welcoming. The staff were all very attentive. I don’t know if the photo conveys how large this portion size was but it was HUGE. I ordered the carne asada. Food was flavorful and came out piping hot. One of us got the top shelf marg and it was delicious and you could definitely taste the alcohol.
