In Short – A do-it-yourself menu offers up everything Tex-Mex in a casual setting. Burritos, tacos and killer margaritas are all made to order. Both locations offer up prime people-watching with ample outdoor seating. Low prices make students and other frugal diners happy.

Decent Food but RUDE WORKERS
by mdixon86
They act like they are doing some strenuous activity to get me a pack of sour cream from the fridge below! They don't think twice of getting an attitude and having a smart comment as well. Good luck getting the fatass bartender from leaning on the wall to get you a drink! The food isn't good enough for me to go back and deal with such poor customer service!
- Pros: Food isn't bad
- Cons: Employees are RUDE!

Taco Bell is more authentic
by mkathrynp
I'll give it to them--it's a great location, and it's pretty clean with some cool decor, but that's about where the pro's stop. The food is mediocre at best. I don't know how you can mess up something as simple as Queso dip, but they've managed to do that. Do NOT eat the enchiladas. Prepare for some real disappointment if you do. The big dark haired male bartender is a TERRIBLE BRUTE! I ordered a Long Island Ice Tea, and he served it to me in little margarita glass, not the standard pint glass, but I still paid the standard $10+ cost. I don't see what all the hoopla about this restaurant is all about. Save your money and go to Dos Taquitos for some real Mexican food, or just head over to Taco Bell.
- Pros: Cool looking restaurant, but you don't go to a restaurant to look at stuff
- Cons: Not much parking, bad food, confusing ordering with terrible service--don't hold your breath for them to explain how to order

Great Food for the price. Best People Watching on Glenwood.
by jm18668
This is not a full service restaurant and does not bill itself as such. You wait in line and order you food just as you would any other fast food place. That being said I've never had a bad experience and I've been eating here about once a week since moving downtown about 3 years ago. The staff is friendly and parking is available next to the building. They have an excellent selection of tequilas and have lots of different margarita options. I'm a fan of the Horny Margarita made with Sauza Hornitos. If your looking for a more upscale restaurant or authentic Mexican cuisine I'd suggest trying somewhere else. I think Jabarra shoud be open at the Depot soon.
- Pros: Good food at a Great Price, Great Patio Seating
- Cons: If you into Full Service, This isn't the place for you
