1st review I've written. My wife and I ducked into this place on a Friday night and were expecting mediocre Mexican food. Instead we got mediocre mexican food plus rude service, plus strange ambiance and no complimentary chips and salsa. What kind of a Mexican restuarant charges $3.00 for chips and salsa when you are ordering entrees and drinks??? To start, we were not greeted as we walked in and we seated ourselves. There was a Kareoke man/employee trying to get people to sing but he was the only one who did any singing - love ballads. Finally a drunk college student put him out of his misery and added to the entertainment. It was the highlight of the night. The people at the table next to us were served meals they didn't order and then we witnessed their waitress, when notified she'd mixed up the order, take the meals behind the bar for a few minutes and then bring the same two meals back out to the correct table. The people at the correct table also witnessed the antics. The owner guy paces back and forth through the restuarant, giving strange glares to the patrons and throwing their receipts at them. After my wife had taken about 6 bites, the waitress came by to try to remove her plate. It was obvious that we just started eating! My wifes shrimp quesadilla was in a huge puddle of grease. I ordered chili verde and it was a super small portion and the rice that came with the meal tasted like Uncle Ben's....so it did live up to our mediocre food expectation. We overheard a lady who walked by who whispered to her friend that this was the weirdest place she had ever been. Boy was she right! The aura of the place was just plain creepy. If you like overpriced (for what you get) mediocre mexican food, rude service, getting hard looks from restuarant owners, kareoke love ballads sung by employees, being rushed out, paying for chips and salsa and pure weidness you MUST GO HERE!!!! I've lived in SF 6 years, freqent diner, worst restuarant I've been to.
Pros: Decor
Cons: Everything else
