Comfortable place for a quick but delicious meal. Had one of the best Al Pastor burritos I can remember.

Best margarita in town hands down. Their food is superb and might literally be one of the best mexican foods around.

Mexican food with white people flavor. Had three tacos. Crisy chicken - veryyyy mushy no crispy to be found. Vampiro had tomatoes that tasted like they came out of a can. The fish one was alright, just bland. Great place to drink a beer on the patio.
Moral is low, workers dont seem happy to be there.

Was asked if we wanted to order off the Kids Menu when we only wanted 1 Enchilada as my friend and I have Small Appetites.....A First....We
return to try more menu options...and perhaps share a Dish.
Thanks to the very helpful Staff and the Chefs for a Memorable Experience.

They were very busy but the staff didn't make it seem like it. The mole on the enchiladas was a lil different from what I'm used to (it was more red/tomato-y) but it was SO good. I've been thinking about it ever since lol

Cocktails! Scrumptiousness. Laid back, inexpensive for the quality. Update 4/23/25...just as good as ever, and Stacy still at the bar to boot!

This was my second time trying so I kind of knew what I was getting myself into when walking in but the let down was even worse than I expected..
I just have high expectations for Mexican food but I can’t say that anything is truly authentically Mexican about this place. My family and I live in the neighborhood so we decided to go on an evening walk around dinner time. We stopped in on what happened to be taco Tuesday. THIS IS NOT THE PLACE FOR TACO TUESDAY. There were only two options, vegetariano and crispy chicken. The veggie tacos were decent (how can you mess up a veggie taco?) but the crispy chicken.. the only thing crispy about the tacos were the fried ends and the tortilla itself. The shredded chicken was way too soft and had a mushed together texture. Gag worthy. Everything was very bland which made it an easy meal for my toddler to eat. The rice passed but the beans could be spiced up a bit. Also who charges an extra 75¢ for salsa?! Also to mention, the clientele isn’t very diverse. The outside seating is nice and the staff seem friendly enough. Would not be trying again.

Amazing setup, outdoor seating has a tucked away and spacious feeling. Interior seating is very cozy.
The food is delicious. The chicken tacos with pico de gallo are crisped to perfection. If you’re looking for something more basic, the bean and cheese burrito is large and savory. Even the simple chips and tomatillo salsa are salted well.
The only time staff came around was to collect the table number.
