    Great service and a good value too. The Mexican dishes are delicious. I really enjoy the guacamole there.

    This little place really dishes out some amazing food. I visited for the first time last week, and was pleasantly surprised at the authenticity of both the food and the owner/staff. I don't eat dairy (which typically makes my Mexican food orders a bit more bland) but the owner personally came out and asked if he could make my plate better by adding his own personal touch. Enchiladas were spot on, food was delicious, and everyone was very friendly. 10/10 will visit again when I'm in the area!

    Sadly the owner(s) have stopped accepting credit cards here. There has been a sign on the cash register that states "credit card machine is broken" which by now, we all know it's a bunch of BS! It has been there for a few months now. It takes that long to get it fixed? Laughable. Why not just be honest with customers and tell us you're no longer accepting credit cards? I find this sneaky not to mention appalling. Food always delicious and service is excellent! That's why I still gave 3 stars! Oh, they also now have an ATM machine with a $2.50 fee! How "convenient".

    The Point is a great family owned restaurant. The food is good and the plates are full. I have gone just by myself and have met other people here lunch. The staff are always friendly and helpful. On weekends it can get pretty busy and feel a little congested, but once you're at your table you are fine. Highly recommend.

    Food was top notch and they give you a lot of it. The pancakes were great!
