I had nachos with chicken and they were great! Everyone was very friendly. Eating on the enclosed deck area in January was chilly, even with the heaters. But count me in, I’ll be back.

Great atmosphere. Food and drinks are fine but pricey.

4.95 for 1 taco is very over priced. All the photos online showed 3 tacos and said nothing about it only being 1. The price is not worth the food

This place was an easy 10/10. Loved the shrimp tacos the most, but honestly everything was above average amazing! Will be back.

The Pazole soup for 11.18. The soup bowl is smaller than a child's cereal bowl. My husband would not be full from this serving. For the price I'd go elsewhere for the soup. My companion had the tacos 2 for 7.50 or there about- a much better bang for your buck. All flavors were on point, however.

We came here on a UGA game day so it was pretty packed! We got in line to wait to order our food. It took a bit since they were really busy. Once we ordered we found somewhere to sit and wait for our food. Once we got our food, the tacos were really good!! Great flavor and really fresh! We also got a pitch of the house margarita and it was great as well!

After my second time going, I would highly recommend coming here for lunch or an early dinner, but the restaurant’s smaller size and popular location makes it very busy starting even at 6:30. Parking was extremely difficult, but after giving up on the property’s parking I found a place a few building down. At 6:30 the line was nearly 20 minutes and the food took another 25, but after finding a seat inside, the food ended being as good as I hoped.

Food is good, atmosphere good. Service from what seemed to be manager/owner rude rude rude. Will not return.

The service was wonderful, friendly when taking the order and fast and correct. For a place that caters to university Students the food was just fine. I myself personally, will not be bringing friends or family here anytime soon to eat here. I would say it is good bar food but that’s about it. I ordered guacamole with chips and it didn’t have much flavor. Once I added cilantro and Onion from my husbands sides. His tacos were good. I would say yes it is a good place to go and hang out with the gals and guys but really not a date night thing.

Me and my girlfriend had a fantastic experience here. The food was delicious and the atmosphere was very relaxing and inviting. I ordered the empanadas and I highly recommend them! They are full of flavor, the beans and the rice taste great, and the order comes with two of them! I also recommend enjoying the outdoors seating area, it's a perfect spot for a relaxing meal. The service was also very friendly and very helpful in making the right food selection. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my experience here and I'm looking forward to returning

The food is great but the employees solicit. Asking for tips for personal reasons. Very unprofessional.
