My wife and I went to the bar while waiting for our table. I ordered two margarita's and left a $2 tip. A drunk hispanic man at the bar told me I needed to leave a bigger tip. I smiled and turned away, ignoring his comment. He kept harassing me and I told him politely that it wasn't his business. His friend got in my face and told me that we should step outside. I walked to the front desk and told him that two men in the bar were threatening me. He told me that they were leaving because the bartender had cut them off. They didn't leave and kept harassing us in a crowd of patrons. I went back up front and asked the manager to call the police and he said he would. The two drunks left the bar after paying a $98 bar tab (a concerned patron told me later). They stood out in the parking lot waiting for us to leave. They came back into the restaurant and harassed us at our table. I went back up to the manager and complained, one of the drunks smacked me on the rear end and told me to come outside. The said he called the police (I later found out he was lying). I looked around the corner to see him joking with the two drunks. I called 911 and the police showed up about 1 minute after the drunks finally drove away. I gave the deputy their license number and filled out a police report for battery. The manager never came over to the table to check on us. My wife was so upset she couldn't eat although several patrons that witnessed the incident stopped by our table. When we went up to pay our bill he muttered that he was sorry. I confronted him about not calling the police and letting the drunks back in 3 more times. He said he thought I called the police. I asked him why he told me he called the police and just looked down at the counter and muttered something in Spanish. My wife told him we will never be back. It's a shame. We have probably eaten there 20 times. At least five patrons walked up to our table and told us they would never be back either.
Pros: authentic food
Cons: Horrible, uncaring, lying manager.

Wonderful!!! My wife and I go a lot, with or without the kids. The food is great & very reasonably priced. Their margaritas are tasty & the service is great. Definately try the Yolandas and the Pollo Epanisado.
Pros: Margaritas, reasonably priced
Cons: can get busy..
