The Scene – It's modeled after the great matriarchal Mexican home kitchens of yore, though it's unlikely any home kitchen ever got this crowded.

Fast food service/ restaurant quality food

by mgmtcu at Citysearch

Inattentive service and a language barrier causes slow service and confusion. Need to hire more English/Spanish speakers, not only the large number of Spanish speakers they currently have. They need to be a bit more diverse in who they hire so messages don't need to be translated/explained and or repeated. Things can be misunderstood and/or this process will only add time to processing and serving the customer. Leaving the hungry patron, impatient and starved and with an unhappy experience. Although Sit down service isn't quite as bad as their to go service where they don't even answer there phone; so don't bother ever calling.

  • Pros: Good food
  • Cons: Bad service
