I don’t live near SLO but am up there a few times a year. Finally found a great place for Mexican food. Love that they give both red and green salsa with their chips. Their cocktails and mocktails were great, and the food was delicious. My husband said the chili relleno was the best he’s ever had. Parking can be hard to find in their small lot but they’re half a block from a large parking structure - and they validate.
Everything here is a 10! From the service to the drinks and tacos, no complaints here 🫶 the attentiveness and kindness of the staff is unmatched. And there’s no place that does complimentary chips and salsa anymore. But this place comes in clutch 👌
Simply amazing! 🤍
