Horrible food! There were 2 staff members at 5:30 pm on a Tuesday night. They were busy putting away all bar stools away when we walked in. They pointed to a booth and we sat next to the only other party of 3 in the whole restaurant. The boy and girl staff member were really enamored with each other which made it almost impossible for him to wait on 2 tables. We ordered beers which were on tap. He brought us bottles. We asked for glasses and reminded him of the limes. The salsa was one of the cheaper versions out of a jar from Walmart at best. We asked him if they made it fresh at the restaurant he said he thought so. The chips were worse than bad cheap that were greasy and salty from a bag. Guac had zero flavor...the flavors together, someone's basement party at 16 when their parents were out of town. I asked what kind of chicken came on the street taco, without a thought, he said, "big cubes"...I asked if they had any shredded? He had to go to the kitchen and ask the "girl in the kitchen". It was hard for him to wait on both table at once. He was very distracted with the kitchen girl. We asked how long they had been in business...neither knew but collectively they said and agreed on maybe 2 1/2 yrs..probably! Please...save yourself. We were both slightly nauseous the whole next day!

New gem that I'm so happy I tried. The service is fantastic and food was delicious. The drink selection cannot be beat with such a variety that I'm unused to having at other similar establishments. I will definitely be back and hope to add it as a routine happy hour spot.

Horrible food and the drink prices are insane!! Manager is completely rude!! Never again ever

The service and the food are both great, but the abundance of constantly flashing party lights are distracting and headache inducing. If you are prone to epileptic seizures, you might not want to eat here.

To truly enjoy this restaurant, you have to be in the party mode because it's going to be loud. Loud music will be playing the whole time, and it's going to be hard to hear others at times. But the food is great; the service can be slow and unresponsive, but other than that, it's a great time.

Authentic and reasonably priced. I had a burrito with chorizo and a jalapeno margarita and they were great. My companion said her enchiladas were good. We'll go back.

So loud we and the servers couldn’t hear each other. The food was horrible. For two of us it was $80. Ridiculous.

The food was great. The house guacamole and salsa were excellent. Tequila used for cocktails left a bit to be desired.

The birria tacos here are phenomenal! The consume is delicious & the spice is perfect. Lunch service is quick, the servers have been beyond friendly & efficient. The music was loud at one point - we politely asked if they could turn it down & they nicely obliged. Will definitely be hitting this spot up as a local on the regular!

Went for dinner with my wife and 4 year old son and what a complete disaster it was. Took them 20 minutes to take our order. Once the food finally came I will say it was delicious. As we were eating they were doing karaoke, which isn’t listed that they are doing that and it was 530pm! The music was so loud that, no exaggeration, we had to scream yell to talk. I will never return here and I suggest you go somewhere else. Plenty of restaurants nearby similar that have way better service and atmosphere. -100 do not ever recommend! Also we asked them to turn the music down and they just said sorry it’s part of the experience.
