Best WLM Reviews

i love this restaurant, everything O tried here was great! The managers Hector and Stephen were very friendly and made sure I had the best visit for dinner. They brought us all the kinds of dips and chips, they were all very yummy! All the tacos on the menu looked so good, the ones I tried were delicious! The waiters were also very nice and suggested very yummy choices for dinner and dessert. I would have taken a picture of the amazing chocolate brownie dessert, but I ate it all ???? I can't wait to visit here again and try even more tacos oink oink ????????
This was my first time here. Had a pleasant experience from the moment we entered. Service was excellent, food was amazing and the atmosphere was inviting. I ordered the nachos and had a bloody Mary! Both were excellent.
Came here for a business lunch. I thought the food was great. I chose four tacos which was just right for lunch. Fun and unique flavors. Good service, fair prices.
First visit. A short wait on a busy night. Appetizers of chips and our choice of 3 types guacamole. Street tacos had a nice variety of choices. The burrito was loaded with meat and peppers. Enchiladas were also very good! A Churro Ice Cream finished off the night for our grandson. (Looking for a great drink? Try the raspberry-lime margarita...)
Ordered four corn tacos (avocado, cauliflower, grilled fish, and fried shrimp). The cauliflower street taco was the best followed by the avocado taco. The tortillas for the tacos were super small. Also, the fried shrimp (4 pieces) were too large for the small taco size.
I liked the portions of complimentary chips and salsa. We ordered the corn guacamole as a side to go with the chips.
The variety of veggie items is vast, so I liked that. The whole restaurant is pretty contemporary from the waiting area, to the lighting fixtures, down to the table arrangement, wall decorations, bar area, etc.
Prices seem on the border of being reasonable to slightly high, however, I wish the portions were a little bit larger.
Amazing food, service, and atmosphere. Even the chips and salsa were phenomenal!! We got pick 2 fajitas to share and it was plenty for 2.
We recently celebrated my wife’s milestone 40th birthday, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The culinary experience was phenomenal, featuring a mouthwatering array of dishes that left us craving more.
We indulged in a delightful steak and chicken burrito that was bursting with flavor, and the Chicken Asada was a standout, perfectly seasoned and grilled to perfection. The street tacos were a fiesta in every bite, while the soft beef tacos melted in our mouths. The Chicken and Shrimp Enchiladas were a heavenly combination of textures and tastes, and the Steak and Chicken Fajitas sizzled with a savory aroma that made our taste buds dance!
Beyond the food, the service was impeccable. The staff made us feel like family, ensuring our experience was as enjoyable as possible. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, making it a perfect setting for a celebration with loved ones.
We left with full bellies and hearts, eagerly anticipating our next visit. If you’re looking for a place that combines incredible food, exceptional service, and a family-friendly vibe, look no further! Highly recommend! ????!
Our server was amazing, the food was delicious, but we have one issue that happened. My friend told the server she had a severe dairy and wheat allergy. She ordered a burrito bowl and requested no cheese. The server put the order in and did note not to have cheese, but when the food was brought out, my friend didn't notice cheese was added in until she took a few bites. There was no layer of cheese on top, but it was mixed in with the rice where she couldn't see it. Since she had a few bites, she reacted within a few minutes and we needed to leave. The server was generous and did his best to take care of us, but this is a common issue people with allergies have. Restaurant staff NEED to pay attention when notes are put in about food allergies.
