The tacos by the way are street tacos, quite small. I had the pork tacos I prefer the red sauce to the green sauce that came with them. Husband at the chicken enchiladas rice beans it comes with 2 enchiladas so he just had one packed up to go. The $6 happy hour Margarita was quite small. And if you don't get a margarita it's quite expensive.

We keep coming back for the chicken and rice soup, the asada tacos and our favorite bartender Ruben. He never fails to treat us like family, regardless if it’s a slower Wednesday night or a jamming Friday night. He makes quality tasteful drinks and always keeps us laughing. Highly recommend for a date night, girls night out or happy hour.

We were out on the patio with live music so we wanted noise. That part was great. The service was excellent. The food was good, but not great. Needs a little more seasoning to it. Just a tad bland.
