The steak was very good. The chile verde was just okay -- sauce had a little flavor and the pork was a little fatty.

The food has been going down hill. It used to be a cut above the average mexican fare in Watsonville, with a Peruvian twist. Now thier menu, pics and all, is just like all the rest of the restaurants in the area. Even the lettuce has been reduced to Iceberg rather then Romaine.

Food was good. Was very cold inside. They could have closed the doors. It seemed like this was the first time they've seen a restaurant.com certificate. We'll go back another fime.
