We have eaten at this restaurant many times over the years. We stopped going out for Mexican food a while back because my daughter only eats bean burritos or tacos, and I can make that at home. She requested to go out to dinner for Mexican food this past weekend, and we chose Compadres. I don't know about you, but my mind is about made up on how the experience is going to be based on the quality of the chips and salsa. Salsa was perfect, just a little kick, and not watered down. Chips were fresh and yummy. The tone was set, and the rest of the meal and service lived up to my expectations. We will definitely return.
