The food is great. Unless you plan to take it home and live as but aways. I do recommend sitting and eating. This is not a typical restaurant, it is a bit more authentic Mexican. They do get busy but it is worth the wait and you may have to sit in the car to eat, if it is too busy. It is a little pricey, but still worth it.
