Description

Nestled in Brooklyn, this cozy neighborhood spot is known for standout tacos, vibrant frozen margaritas and fresh, flavor-forward dishes like shrimp nachos, burritos and coconut rice bowls. Friendly, quick service and a charming backyard make it ideal for casual dinners, birthdays and summer events. Expect limited indoor seating during outdoor renovations and occasional inconsistency at the counter, but overall it’s a welcoming, flavorful local hangout.

Love this place. The food is a great mix of Mexican and West Indian flavours, and it’s super affordable. The staff are always in great spirits and really welcoming oh, and they make their chips fresh on site. A great option for something quick, easy and tasty.

The frozen margaritas here are fantastic! We sampled the small passionfruit and mango flavors, and both were delicious. The chips and queso are also quite good (7.5/10). The chicken rice bowl was decent; I liked the hint of coconut flavor in the white rice. I would definitely return for the margaritas!

Great little spot. Quality, fresh food. Great service with an open friendliness that was very welcome to this very recent transplant to the city. Try the nachos! The sample I was given was excellent.
