The food it's good, great service and place are good and clean, the only bad thing about this place, nobody tell you need pay on cash if no you pay like $20 extra but it's good place
Carne asada is nicely flavored, tender and not too dry.. one taco is really like two street taco size?? only had onions and cilantroTostada de ceviche con camarones was just okay, the flavors are not memorable and would not come back for this cevicheMy husband ordered a margarita and was disappointedservice is nice, Spanish speaking only but we didn’t have any trouble:)
