I had the molcajeteada and an horchata to drink. Everything was delicious from the chips and salsa to my main meal. The waitres was super friendly and since we went at lunch, it wasn't really crowded. Definitely 10/10 would go again!

Service = It was above average...Ambience= Festive, roomy, decorative...Food = Avg...My burrito came out cold...I would have mentioned it, but due to time constraints, I had to keep it moving...It was half steak and half chicken tinga ...The chicken tinga was not spicy at all...Chips were good, but not a fan of the salsa that came with it...The rice that came with the burrito, IMO avg at best ...

Pretty cool spot I randomly checked out. The margaritas are a hit, they have a great price for the flight. Also the steak tacos are seasoned very well.

If you're a vegetarian in the area, this is probably the best Mexican restaurant around. We are always happy with our orders.Vegetarian options: Great vegetarian options that don't feel like afterthoughts. They are as well conceived and prepared as the rest of the menu.

This is some of the worst food I've ever had. No exaggeration. It tasted spoiled, was cold, just awful. Woke up with a stomach ache the next morning. My daughter barely touched hers. We used to go to this place a couple of years ago. I asked them what changed, and they said management/ownership. You can definitely tell it's just someone trying to make a buck, and doesn't care about the quality of the food. We will NEVER return. Would give it 0 stars if I could. Highly recommend not going here.

Terrible communication I came to place a take out order for the first time and asked for steak taco dinner but left with shrimp tacos which I dnt eat and also wasn’t accommodated at all. I will never ever eat there again thanks for the hospitality and care of the customer.

The chips and salsa were of good quality and the salsa a bit spicy but excellent. You can also order custom made guacamole however you want it.The food was a good quality and the service was also good. They have an excellent choice of cocktails both alcoholic and non-alcoholic.They can accommodate a larger party with several large boots. They have both indoor and outdoor seating and the atmosphere of the outdoor seating is quite lovely..The indoor atmosphere is quite bright and it would be great if the lighting were more subdued.

I enjoyed our meal there. 4 went in… 4 full happy-people left. Fresh DosEquis on tap. I had no reservations about tipping 20%.Parking: The street parking pay-booths have you input your vehicle information. No display-on-dashboard expected.

Surprisingly strong drink, delicious food. We'll definitely be coming back here! Child friendly, they had a high chair and kids menu. My picky 3yo ate most of her cheese quesadilla.
