The first time I went was awesome. The birria nachos and 5 mini drinks were delicious. Great choice before the MJB concert. Now my 2nd time wasnt that great. I was a little more aware of the surrounding since I was with a bigger group celebrating my bday. I still think the atmosphere and food is great. But Considering i dont really eat beef like i use to.I would've enjoy my birria burrito more if I had chosen another meat. The biggest disappointment was paying for salsa and chips. NO disrespect but I've never been to a Mexican or any descent of the Hispanic culture and there wasn't complimentary chips and also. Guac I get but really. Idk if I'm beingg petty but it was a complete turn off. Being a foodie I just could see myself being ok with thst. I mean come on you gotta have something to chase all the alcohol you want me to buy right...lol

The server was very nice. I didn't know the drink I ordered came in these really tall glasses that cost $20 it was so not worth it.

We stopped in for brunch and we were very pleased. When we got there three buffet didn't have variety. Most of the trays were empty but that's ok, what we had was delicious.I ordered the veggie omelette. Everything had so much flavor. My choice of drink was the agua fresca watermelon flavor. Refreshing!!!We sat outside and the vibe was fun. The music was really good. Our waiter was fun but it took him awhile to get back to us. My suggestion.... When you order your drinks, order your food at the same time. We placed our drink order and still needed time to look over the menu for the entree. He brought it drinks and was gone for quite she time. We weren't in a rush and the ambience was nice so...I Guess not a huge deal. ?We will be back, the food was very good.

First time coming here, and the waiters were rude. They were on the phone. They asked how many and we said 4. We asked what they served and they said we should know. We didn't know because as I said earlier, it was our first time. They were so rude and disrespectful but the valet was kind.

My fiance and I have been going here for more than 2 years now long before we got engaged and every visit gives good food good service good atmosphere. I love Hispanic food and this is my favorite place to get birria tacos, their surf and turf specials are crazy good the food makes good left overs too !!! The DRINKKKKS like I cant tell you how many sangrias, margaritas, mango martinis I order when I’m there. Everytime we go, we go prepared to spend $ because we make the most of the experience and get like 3 orders of our favorite drinks for the night. Amazing place ! I do wish they weren’t stingy on the guacamole or they should make it complimentary instead of charging for such a little amount, and if people want extra then they should pay, other than that I looovvve tempo cantina and this location has been my favorite!

Very bad food, the aguachile smelled bad and the michelada didn't even have clamato, I even asked for one with clamato and they brought another one just like the first one with a taste of Worcestershire sauce and simple, I don't recommend it, if you want to enjoy it, look for another

Food was by OK.literally ok. This is coming from a women that makes authentic tortillas and trully cooks from the heart and scratch.. Drinks were good and strong. Be advised that service takes forever. Takes about 30 min to get service. I dont sugar coat any reviews. Be advised food is dryer than your grandmothers ***** sides are separate at an extra price. No chips and salsa. Over rated place. Lots of followers on ig. Experience is about 3/10.

Horrible service, waiter took 30 minutes to take our order! Place is overrated. Save your time and go somewhere else.

Wouldnt let me order liquor ( i didnt have a physical copy of my id) which i understood i guess I am 24 years old, wings were disgusting, birria taquitos were really good but the shells were super hard, the little table in the middle of the table not a good idea and took forever to find someone to take my payment of apple pay .
