The drinks and chips were good. But the food was just not that great and probably won’t be back anytime soon

The place was well ventilated, clean and safety considerations were obvious. With both inside and outside options, they are taking the safety of their employees and their clients seriously. All employees wore their masks at all times and the QR option for menu and payment is appreciated for minimal contact.The food is enjoyable and a bit closer to traditional Mexican than the standard TexMex. The price definitely reflects that as well, both in the food and the alcohol even for the more lowend of the bar, so don't expect a huge amount of food and headsized glasses of booze for little amount of . And be forewarned when they ask if you want chips and guacamole, they charge you for the guac even if they forget to mention it. And like with everything else, its higher than you'd expect or used to seeing in other places.Its hard to say how the ambience or noise level is there, given the restricted seating inside and out due to COVID. However, I can see it being a fairly noisy place with all the booths full, but a vibrant place folks who don't mind the noise level would enjoy.Parking was not too difficult, though it will become a bigger issue as the summer approaches given all the places around there

The burrito and street tacos were great; the beans and rice were meh. I am typically forgiving, but this is the second disappointing visit here in a row where the food was not worth the price.

We had 2 people waiting at our table, they forgot to bring plates and did not clear the empty plates at our table almost the entire dinner. They would bring the food/drinks out but didn't pick up the empty plates even though we stacked them at the end of the table. The restaurant was pretty light and we had to flag them down to order drinks/food. Then the waiter mis-ordered our drinks...it felt like he wasn't really paying attention. Thank goodness, the food orders were correct. In any case, I would grade this place a B on food and C- on service. I would not come back again as I felt the staff was not friendly, especially the hostess. The waiter was nice but he was not paying attention.

The flowers on the tables were lilies but had a bad smell. The service was average, with one of our entrees being really good and the other terrible. The selection of drinks and food was odd. Overall, the restaurant has potential but could benefit from a menu overhaul and improved staff. It gives off the impression that it is unsure of its identity.
