Staff is friendly, and the place seems to see little to no business despite it's size. Prices are a little bit high, but the food is decent quality nonetheless. I think they should work on making the restaurant a little more inviting to customers that are just walking by looking for a potential meal. It had an initially eerie vibe, as the place appears abandoned upon entering.
I decided to try this place after seeing a picture of a large platter of 50 tacos! I'm always looking for the best TJ style tacos out there and this place might just be my favorite. The service was great, the restaurant was clean and tastefully decorated, and of course all the food I tried was great from the tacos to the chips. The tacos run at about $1.50 each or you can order the large platter of 30 tacos for $50. I will definitely be coming back
Food is great!. I typically come here to day drink, play music on the jukebox, and have ceviche de camaron. It is definately a little hole in the wall location, which is perfect for someone who doesn't want to be bothered by a huge crowd. The service is also great. I recently discovered this place, but so far no complaints. Also is clean and bathrooms are also clean which is a plus.
