Reviews summary
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.
The staff at this restaurant is very welcoming and accommodating. Unfortunately, I couldn't enjoy their guacamole and red sauce due to the cilantro, which I have a bad reaction to. They also included roasted corn in the food, which I don't like, but they were happy to leave it out and replace it with black beans, which added a great flavor. I highly recommend dining on their outdoor patio for lunch or dinner.

One of my favorite places to eat downtown, the cocktails are fantastic and food is always good. Miss the chicken wings, but everything is always good. The only reason I?m giving it a three star is the music, I wish they would play something different. It?s not the type of music that makes you want to hang out and order more cocktails. We finished our food and left for a few more cocktails somewhere else. But the food and service is fantastic, definitely eat here just bring headphones.
You can't hold tables until after your order. Soo can you take my money first, but can you guarantee me a table? If my food is done, can you keep it until a table is available? What a crock!

Awesome!!! the food was great but the bartenders and the drinks put this place over the top for me. We went here twice during our trip and the second time was just to drink. The pineapple margaritas are great but have them spice it up with some muddled jalapenos and it will change your life. The can spice up any of them but the sweet and spicy in the pineapple is my favorite. They also were making special Halloween drinks with dry ice in them . We saw the bartender making a tray full of them for a tour group and had to have one. I don't know what it was called or what was in it but it was gooood!
