Description

Overall, the reviews for the restaurant were mixed with some customers being disappointed with the food quality, portion sizes, and service, while others were impressed with the authentic cuisine and friendly staff. Some highlights included fresh guacamole, tasty margaritas, delicious entrees, and accommodating service. However, complaints included small portions, lackluster dishes, slow service, and underseasoned food. The atmosphere was also noted to be loud and cramped by some diners. Although there were some positive aspects, the general consensus seemed to suggest that while the restaurant may be suitable for drinks and appetizers, it may not be the best choice for a full meal.

Very authentic food and place. In true Hispanic style. Every thing we got was absolutely delicious. Servers was kind and worked in a team and timely manners. They had a lot of seating space so reservations on s unday afternoon were not necessary. Would recommend for a date or night out with friends.

A bit pricey for what you get but the place has a really nice atmosphere.The way it was a little pushy with the guac and ended up bring us two extra taco plates that we didn't order. He comp'd just one of them.

Guac was good. Service was awful and there were a bunch of drunk people at the bar on a Tuesday. Weird crowd. Food: 2 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1 Meal type: Dinner

Unfortunately, my experience wasn't that great. Awful Al pastor tacos. The meat smelled. Carne asada steak ordered medium rare. Tasted like shoe sole. I bet it spent all day in sous vide and they didn't bother to pat dry it before putting on grill for 30 secs. Chevy, rubbery well done. Absolutely not worth 38$. Price per person: $30–50 Food: 1 Service: 3 Atmosphere: 3
