Just awesome! A restaurant that takes you to Mexico. There was a long line when we arrived, but the service was so efficient that it was worth the wait. Thank you for everything! ?

Someone said best carnitas this side of the Mississippi and I think they might be right. Was not expecting tacos to be that good. Plus it was a vibe.Got the chorizo, carnitas, and bean tostada. All very solid. I haven't had a ton of Mexican food in Vermont but this exceeded my expectations.

Each of us 2 had the Al Pastor and Tinga. And then we had another Al Pastor each - so.good! And some pickled red onions on top; nicely complemented the taste. Paloma cocktail and ginger beer were satisfying.

A hair overpriced but it's hands down the best taco and burrito joint in Burlington. Flavorful food, strong cocktails.

Food is overpriced, but good. A recent frustration, I wanted to order chips and guacamole, but the only way to do that is you have to order chips and salsa ($5.50) PLUS guacamole ($5), which I think is kind of a rip off. You can't just pay for chips and guacamole. For one tostada, chips and guacamole and a drink I paid $38!!! I know prices are going up, but yikes. Not affordable if you want to be a regular. Service is fine, you go and order at the cashier and then your food and drink are brought to you. Some tables inside during the winter are a bit chilly to sit at as they're located a few feet from the double door entrance and because the overall warmth inside isn't very high. No private lot for the restaurant. Street parking can be hard to find and a lot of the streets nearby are one way streets. Best part about the place is coming in the summer and sitting outside at tables which have big umbrellas. They have several drinks available including a spicy margarita. If you don't like REALLY spicy, don't get the spicy margarita (it doesn't just have a spicy rim like many places, the actual drink is very spicy as well).

They didn’t accept my MD virtual id. Sad. I liked the food quite a bit (Al pastor!).My bfs burrito had pineapple, which I enjoyed, but he said it was not great (he’s Hispanic).

I couldn't find a single parking spot, I went around the streets 3 times and nothing.

Brisket taco was super juicy and tasty. Great, friendly service. Super cool calm atmosphere, music.

I’m probably too old for this place. It’s really dark and got pretty loud as it filled up.The Al pastor taco was delicious, the tinga was dry. Tacos are TINY. Also wish I’d known how small they would be because I would have ordered more than two. Salsa was not good. More like taco sauce that you’d put in the meat than anything.Cocktails were good but if you order them this is definitely not a $10-20 meal. I spent $40.Parking: I had to park three blocks away.
