Food is only thing keeping this place alive. Bu8lding is nice food is great but customer service when you manage to finally get it if ever is sub par. Hire help not just family, or keep losing my business. Walked out 2 times before ever getting a server after being seated because of neglectful employees and both times there were only 2 to 3 tables filled at current time. Meaning restaurant was 75 to 80 % empty but they still could not pull it off with that equipment. Very un prepared for a crowd in Athens tx. Maybe that why there's never one.
Our first time dining here and stopped in for lunch on Sunday. The menu is quite large and a ton of options to choose from. Unlike most restaurants, Cinco de Mayo offers their lunch specials on the weekends too. I picked the street taco special. It came with 3 tacos, rice and beans and choice of meats for only $8.99. Barbacoa, carnitas and beef fajita were very tasty. Topped with fresh and grilled onions, cilantro and some incredible green sauce. Chips were fresh and crispy. Salsa was flavorful with just a touch of heat. Service was great and they took great care of us. Was surprised the place wasn't very busy.
Best Mexican/Seafood place in Athens!! Hands down and their margaritas are a plus !! I haven't tasted a house margarita as strong as theirs,I ordered the chicken fajitas and everything we very well cooked as I like and Not to mention the Owner gave me a free margarita for the wait since it was busy night (even though the food didn't take long) highly recommend 10/10.
