Stayed nearby, so stopped in for happy hour and appetizers. The bartender was great, and served up some delicious margaritas. The chicken nachos were also tasty. The vibe was chill with the front windows open for a nice refreshing breeze, and the music was perfect with great Spanish throwbacks playing!
It was happy hour so we both enjoyed sangrias and margaritas.
The sea bass dinner that my brother had was fantastic and both the chicken dinner and the quesadilla with truffle, mushrooms, cheese and other fantastic items were amazing, as well.

My husband and i went there late in the evening and the front was noisy and warm. I asked for us to be seated in an air-conditioned area... and the back which was huge... was pretty, chill, and had good service. I tried some foods i had never heard of but my husband thought i might like. It was all very good.
We found this restaurant by accident and decided to give it a try. I'm glad we did and i hope to go back.

Food was really great, and service was very nice! The frozen margaritas were very nicely presented and tastes good and strong.
We were seated inside but right next to the entrance so we got some of the heat from outside and there were a few flies around. Otherwise pretty good!

I have been here a couple of times and it has always been a wonderful experience. The tacos are delicious, although ones I had tried a sandwich which was good too. The seating is really good for family or date. On a sunny day there are seats outside as well as conditioned tables inside. I prefer the ones near the entrance, cool AC and open doors.
Reserve last minute for three and not dissapointed. There varied Margharitas with mezcal options was great. Our waitress was very sweet and gave excellent advice. We enjoyed the nachos, street corn was superb, veggie tacos excellent, spicy guacamole excellent. The chips were the only negative as were stale. Atmosphere was lively and decor was very nice. Highly recommend
Drinks and the guac were excellent, tacos just ok. The tacos tasted very plain, and the tortillas were pretty dry. Maduros were too oily. Service was friendly and would def come back for the atmosphere.
Went for taco Tuesday . Service was exceptional. Veggie Nachos were amazing . We took the fish tacos, shrimp tacos and chicken tacos - they comes in threes and you can’t just get one taco of each . The tacos were good. Not the best I had though. The shrimp was probably my favorite. The churros for dessert was not great and we would have skipped it if we had known .
