Surprised that it was not busy the night we visited. I guess being the off season helped! Quick service and good food. Tacos and nachos ordered tonight and everyone was satisfied. Give it a try!
November 2025
Great drinks and the food was delicious! The staff was very friendly and we received our food and drinks quickly. The birria tacos were so good! The carnitas plate was also very delicious! We sat outside, the weather was nice and it had a nice atmosphere. The price was not bad, a little high but what isn't high right now. Overall, it was a nice dinner and I would recommend visiting this establishment.

Salsa and chips were great. Food was good as well. Service was sub par. Took awhile for someone to even seat us for a restaurant that had not many people there. The server in general was nice but took awhile. She seemed like she had a lot of tables though so it’s fine.
