In Short
From the tortilla chips and guacamole to savory sauces and hand-rolled tamales, everything is made fresh and served by an attentive staff. Specialties include beef enchiladas, camarones, and carnitas. The Mexican Riviera-inspired dining room features terrazzo tiles, antique pine tables, hand-blown chandeliers and contemporary Latino art, while the bar offers sumptuous leather sofas for lounging. Margaritas keep the after-work crowd happy, while families show up on weekends for off-the-menu breakfast favorites.

I used to love this place...until I went there last night and found a dead critter underneath my carnitas. I was almost through eating it, and moved the last piece over a bit...there it was, staring me (as much as a squashed cockroch can stare) right in the face...I pretty much freaked out. Worse, they didn't even bother to give me or my boyfriend a free dinner! They just cleared the plate, said "it's hard to keep a restaurant clean...you should see what it's like in the kitchen" and then came back and said "sorry about that" as if it was no big deal. That did it for me...no more Taleo (and maybe off of restaurants for a while).
Pros: usually a tasty meal...
Cons: ...but this time a little something extra.

We had a visiting friend from Australia who wanted to have some good mexican food. We used this website to find a restaurant and chose Taleo from the reviews. It lived up to the writings. The service was outstanding and friendly. We took our two young boys; one whom ordered a meal which he found too spicy. It was replaced with no fuss and no charge. They wanted an extra scoop of ice-cream for their dessert and again, no fuss and no charge. As for the Margaritas and the Canitas; both outstanding. It was the best pork I had ever tasted. My only recommendation is to not fill up on the tortilla chips and salsa before your meal because the servings are very generous. Great value and easily a five star rating.
Pros: Value, Child friendly, great food
Cons: None
