Sure you get food, but the prices are outrageous. For two taco plates, two margaritas, and two waters it was $1485 pesos/~$74 USD. The margaritas weren't on the menu, but were $20 each. They target tourists and rush them inside to charge as much as they can. They also only take cash, but lucky you they are right across from an ATM. I appreciate a hustle, but this is ridiculous. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $1–100
DON'T They have two menus and their prices differ according to your language or accent. This is what they themselves told us, as a defence when we realized fake taxes and tip were added to the bill, saying they gave us the menu with cheaper prices as a way to lessen the complaint. Tips are always optional, unless you're are warned, beforehand, there's a service charge, same goes for taxes, if they're not included in the price. Tipping is a must for me, but also not scamming costumers. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch
Honestly if I could give negative stars I would absolutely horrible experience. We had a group of 14 all together they rushed you to sit down then they had a chalkboard that says "fast food tacos" with 4 flavors listed. We didn't even know there was a menu. Well each group got their bill and it was $165 for 4 tacos and 4 drinks. They tried to scam us. What they didn't know was we had a tour guide that called them out on it. She busted them the guy tried ripping the receipt out of her hand and was starting to get physical with her. They tried to tack on a $50 tip and service charge and basically doubled the food prices ontop of it. Absolutely horrible horrible experience. Thank god we had a tour guide that was there for us. I cannot believe that the Ruins allows this resturant to stay in business. It sounds like it's a daily occurrence of them trying to scam people. Absolutely disgusting.

DONT GO THERE!! The guy tried to charge us $500 pesos or $25 USD for 2 iced coffees. A rip off, who wants to take advantage of tourists! He has no menu with prices and will rush to make you what you want, and later tries to charge you ridiculous prices. Don't taste anything until he has confirmed the prices.
No prices are listed for 6 tacos and two cokes and guacamole dip was $70.00 US dollars absolutely not worth that kind of money highly upset

$50.00 us dollar 3 small tacos and 2 cokes Not even good tacos then they want you to pay in pesos only. They said go exchange at the bank right in front of it
Stay away from this place. Added a random amount of tax on the bill, ended up paying a lot for very mediocre chicken tacos and guacamole.

As the other reviews say this is a massive scam. They charged us $75 USD. Don’t come here.
They do this thing where they add tax and service charge which isn’t allowed in Mexico so watch out, I would avoid this place if possible.
