Did not like the food, service was worse. They say Mexican food also, but they shouldn't. If you like Mexican, you will not like this place. Salsa is like ketchup and lard mixed together. Oil stands on everything they serve.
Owners need to step up...

We've been going to this place since it opened. They had a live pianist and the sauce was different. It was touted as being Guatemalan food instead of Mexican.
In the last year things at this restaurant have severely declined and we will not return until it turns around, if it ever does.
The food is very salty; overly so, and has gotten greasy. This was one of the reasons we liked it in the beginning; it was not as greasy as the typical Mexican restaurant.
The decor and atmosphere was good too, but now there are light bulbs out, booths are falling apart, and cleanliness has gotten worse.
Probably the most problematic things is the wait staff. They cannot get everyone's order to arrive at the same time. The excuse was that there was only one cook and a very small oven. This was never a problem before. However the wait staff has never been stellar. They are very slow and inefficient.
This seems to suddenly change if the owner appears. We've actually witnessed this occur on more than one occasion. Service is surly and slow, the owner comes in, and presto(!), it is time to hop to it. Proprietor, you need to have someone "in charge" if you are not going to be around to do so yourself. These folks are killing your business when you are not there.
Not mexican flavor

If you are wanting mexican food, don't go here. Everything is greasy and tasteless. The sauce is practically Campbell's tomato soup with less flavor. Weird. We have tried several things on their menu and have been very disappointed each time. The service is slow along with the sad food.
Yum

..if they can get their wait staff up to the level that their food is, they'd be set.
