If you are OK with $36 pitchers of margaritas you will get over the mediocre food. Great service and great atmosphere.

A friend asked me to meet him there, so I looked up the reviews. When I arrived, I wasn't too impressed by the outside, but when I went in, I found it had excellent ambiance and that it was extremely clean. The floors looked like you could eat off of them! The service was some of the best and most attentive I've experienced in the area... yes, I want more salsa... yes I would like more cola.
The menu was disappointing, the salsa did taste a bit like ketchup, and the only spice came when I asked for a bottle of hot sauce. However, my chicken chimichanga was excellent and was more than a meal. Also, the chips were good and plentiful. So yes, I'll eat there again.

Ordered shrimp fajitas. Absolutely no seasoning, not even lime juice. Very overcooked as well. And this is the first time I've ever had greasy guacamole. I was disappointed since this was one of ny husband's favorite restaurants when he lived in Florida.

Had dinner there last night. The salsa was absolutely disgusting. It tasted like a mix between ketchup and cocktail sauce with a pinch of nutmeg. The albondigas soup tasted putrid and I think it may have been. The fajitas came out on a plate that smelled as if a thousand cats had peed on it, which pretty much ruined everyone's appetite. The carne asada at $17, was an incredibly small portion - I would estimate about 4oz. Everything tasted as if it came out of a can... no love coming from the food. In addition, the service was sub-par. I will absolutely not return.

Have been going her for years..it's nice to see the friendly staff there ALWAYS.
Make sure you say Hi to Gustavo!

Have tried many other Mexican restaurants in town over the years and we keep coming back to the "dobe".

The fajitas are the best around!
