Nice staff and attentive service with fairly large portion sizes. Quality of the food is just not there. Margarita is disappointing and tastes cheap and more like a juice. Corn tacos are soggy and hard to eat. Overall food is fine but not loaded with flavor.
Restaurant and bathrooms are dirty and the whole place needs a deep clean. Tables have that layers of sticky feel and everything needs cleaned much better. Bathrooms have that smell that indicates they aren’t cleaned well at all.
Parking: Plenty of street parking in area
Kid-friendliness: They have kids options

Delivered hot nachos in a sealed bowl...They arrived soggy,mushy and damp....Condensation is a thing...Bowl of corn mush and cold hard cheese
The asada tacos are literally just flour tortillas and meat...plain bland

I went to pick up an accommodation on site and besides taking almost an hour to get ready, when I asked where the bathroom was, a tall, blonde lady who works there (I don't know if she's the manager or owner of the establishment) said that I just I could use the bathroom if I left it clean afterwards, what does that mean? Embarrassing and ridiculous situation. I will never return to this place again.

The massive waiter decided to call ME fat just because I finished the food I ordered. You could literally fit a 13 year old child in his stomach yet he decided to openly make fun of my appetite in front of me. Very unprofessional. Seems as though this restaurant is going under. (Ps: If you can break a scale by simply standing on it, maybe don’t degrade your guests.)

So good! Came in tonight for an early Mother's Day dinner. Service was friendly and attentive, drinks and food were terrific, prices were fair. Thanks to Charlie, our waiter, for taking great care of us...we'll be back again soon!

Great food, service, location and experience. This restaurant is exceptional, located on beautiful Montana Avenue near 14th Street. There is a nice inside and outside eating area on Montana Avenue near 14th St. You have to check out the food, it's so delicious. The waiters are so nice and make your eating experience so enjoyable. Try it you won't be disappointed.

Sad because I had high hopes. Unfortunately, the meal was essentially flavorless and unauthentic. :(
Great staff though!
