Delicious food, huge portions, and great service! My friend and I stopped in for a light lunch on a chilly day. We split the Pozole Sopa because the portion size was huge, and had the Camaron Chipotle and Carne Asada tacos. I highly recommend for a casual lunch.

This place is good, no doubt. Friendly service, nice location, andquality food. Only rating it 4 stars due to value. I thought it was pricy at $5 a taco, and had to be careful - take that chips and guac upsell and you're in for $12! My son like just sides of rice and beans, and for that you're in for $15! Spectacular beer selection, and the prices look fair but geeze it's hard to find a pint serving. And now the tacos are in the $6-$7+ range, no thanks, it's...

My son and I recently moved to Albany. I think I found our favorite spot. The food AND cocktails are delicious. And what stands out even more is the service. Everyone iw super nice and attentive. Neomi has been our server most of our visits and she is so nice and hospitable! Thank you for feeding us delicious food and making us feel so welcome
