    I got to go Chile, Colorado they didn't give me any tortillas which isn't a big deal because I had them at home. The crazy thing is there was a whole ribeye steak underneath the cut up pieces of steak chili Colorado. I'm going to have the pictures below so after I ate the cut up meat on top there was a whole ribeye underneath for 20 bucks. This is crazy

    I have visited 4 other locations. Panama City, Fla location is the best! Had a party of 12 during dinner hours. We were seated promptly. Orders were cooked to specifications! Delicious food and phenomenal service!
