UrbanSpoon Mediocre food By RiverrinnerJanuary 18, 2010 - Doesn't like it. I took a few lunches there to realize the food just isn't that great. It's ok, but it's kind of bland. I always have trouble getting good service there too. They seem to forget about you easily. There are many better Mexican places in the valley, so I probably won't be going back. mobile review By Rodney Palmer October 25, 2009 - Doesn't like it. The staff was friendly, it's true. However the food was terrible. The guac was nasty. Fajita steak was more grissel than meat. One redeeming factor was the chips and salsa... But it's not enough to get me to back. mobile review By Tastes So GoodAugust 20, 2009 - Likes it. The food is awesome. Got to get the chuncky salsa. The chileverde burrito is always my favorite. The plating is par for Mexican food. The fries are really good too. And a couple of Dos Equis to go with the meal. The service is top notch...
TripAdvisor Very good Mexican food By TND9350 The chips and salsa they start you out with are very good. Their smothered burritos with green chili sauce are out of this world! The service is pretty good and it's very clean. And its in a good location, next to the movie theatres! Facebook Our office lunch place. Someone is always on their way to La Luna. The lunch specials can't be beat. The smothered burritos and the guacamole are awesome!
CitySearch Save time - go to Taco Bell! By nooneyoudknow This restaurant just didn't do it for me. Our food did make it to our table and it was edible, but it is not an experience I will seek again. The food had NO flavor or spices. If you took a small bite of something you couldn't even tell what it was, consequently. I took a small bite off a co-diner's plate and mistook it for enchilada and it was Chile Verde - NO spice or flavor at all. I mean, c'mon now. The service was mediocre at best. One of those experiences that doesn't warrant saying anything, but definently had us all looking at our watches throughout dinner (and after when waiting for our checks... which came about 10 minutes AFTER our to go boxes....???). I should have taken notice of the biggest sign of bad Mexican food and left before even sitting down: hot sauce in a ketchup bottle. You know what I mean. They call it salsa, you call it tomato paste with taco seasoning. You can tell the tortilla chips came out of a HUGE bulk-sized bag. You will always know what to expect at a Mexican restaurant by the chips and salsa they serve - this was a tomato paste and taco seasoning kind of place. Save a couple bucks, get faster service, and just go to Taco Bell. Best Place for Mexican By JaimeDB I'm always disappointed when I go any where else. Chile Verde is awesome, large combination rocks the party. Yum yumyum.
IgoUgo Nightmare by Dissatisfied Reviewer My girlfriend and I were staying at a Hotel nearby and decided to go out for Mexican Food.We had to wait, but several customers walked in and were seated before us, as we were ignored. When we finally got a table, they brought out some gross chips. We ordered Guacamole... gross.. then our meals. We both got Fajita's but our server told my girlfriend that she couldn't have vageterian fajitas, but they could put the meat on the side. Fine. We ate our mediocre food with tortilla's that broke in half when we folded them, then got our bill. Fajitas w/ steak and Chicken: $10 and some change. Fajitas w/ steak: $9 and some change. Unintelligable chicken scrathc: $5 Wacky (Guacamole) $5. When we asked what the miscelanious charge was, the belligerant manager said it was for having the Steak on the side. We argued this, then she said it's for the drinks. I told her "oh, it didn't say. If you were seriously going to charge me $5 to put some steak on the side of my Steak Fajitas, I would tell you to kiss my a**.” She erupted into violence and foul language, shouting in front of the customers that I could "Kiss HER a**!" I tried to pay but she said "get out!" So I left. She followed us outside, yelling profanities at me and calling me an "abusive a** hole" and my girlfriend a "b***h". My girlfriend tried to defuse the situation, then she got in her face and said she is "used to this verbal abuse" (from the manager?) and again said "b***h I wasn't talking to you, so shut up!" She grabbed a security guard (who has obviously dealt with her nonsense before) and told him we didn't pay. She continued her rants saying that I told her "I wouldn't pay a f**king cent for this s**t.” Don’t eat here. Out of 91 OMG this place is Great! By Evelyn C. Food comes in huge portions, so a great deal for the money. True Mexican flavor, very delicious, and very friendly waiters! Spicy and Affordable By Angela H. The food at this restaurant was good, but it was a little bit too spicy for me. The prices are very affordable. I think I paid around $7 for my meal. It also came with chips and salsa. This restaurant is clean and well run. I would recommend this restaurant.
