Nestled in a charming locale, this restaurant offers a mixed experience for diners seeking a taste of Mexican cuisine. While the food garners positive nods, especially for tacos and handmade corn tortillas, the ordering process and service leave much to be desired. Many patrons have encountered order mix-ups and slow delivery, which dampens the overall enjoyment. However, the vibrant atmosphere, refreshing margaritas, and outdoor seating charm guests, making it a popular choice for gatherings. With potential for improvement in service and portion sizes, this restaurant stands as a promising, albeit imperfect, dining destination.
I decided to try this restaurant on a whim. The food was decent, but the ordering process was a bit strange. There isn't much table service here. Overall, I would give the food a rating of 4 out of 5.
Tacos are solid. I really like the shrimp taco. The sauce on them was great, it was a chipotle mayo like sauce that really goes well with the shrimp. I also recommend ordering some nachos.Food: 4/5
I wouldn't consider this to be authentic Mexican cuisine. It was the worst I have ever tasted. The salsa seemed to be just tomato sauce mixed with a small amount of hot sauce. If I were the owner, I would feel ashamed of the quality of the food.
It's definitely a favorite for me! The food is so tasty and the drinks are litty ????????????
You can?t hold tables until after you order. Soo you can take my money first but can?t guarantee me a table? Once my food is done you can ?hold it? until a table is Available? What a crock ! DO NOT COME HERE ! Disorganized, rude staff full of attitude,absolutely ridiculous! ZERO I REPEAT ZERO STARS !!!
