Very disappointing service tonight. We are regular customers and came in to celebrate a friend’s birthday, but our server, Joahn, was unfriendly and inattentive the entire time. He barely checked on us, didn’t refill drinks, and never asked how our food was. The restaurant was not busy, so there was no reason for the lack of service.

The most frustrating part was that he never came back to close us out and didn’t even say thank you when we were finally able to pay through someone else. It really put a damper on what should have been a fun night.

We hope management looks into this, because this level of service is not what we’re used to here

Miserable owner that hates his employees and customers - Spend your money elsewhere.

The food is good but not good enough to be worth the cost. Menu prices are $3 higher than listed on the website, they don't tell you that the chips & salsa aren't complimentary until AFTER it's already on the table, and the $13 margaritas are 90% ice!! When my sister complained about the ice to drink ratio, the server thought she was joking, then when it was made clear that there was no joke, just asked if she wanted to buy ANOTHER $13 glass of ice with a splash of tequila and flavoring in it. Unacceptable. If you're going to be expensive, fine, it's Denver in 2025, but at the very least be up front about it. None of this sneaky nonsense.

Kaela is the best! We stopped by on Saturday night for a drink before a show at the Lost Lake Lounge. She literally made one of the best coin margaritas I have EVER had!! And my boyfriend had a ranch water that he said was one of the best he's ever had!! She was so nice and really kicked off our night in the best way possible. Thank you, Kaela!! We'll be back :)

Sat waiting for 20 minutes. No one came by at all. Got up and headed out, host couldn’t have cared less. With so many Denver restaurants struggling right now it’s crazy to treat patrons poorly.

Always good food but if you need a stiff drink this is your spot. Best margs in the area. Tyler and Kayla were great!

Exceptional! Did not expect the little details that comprises each taco to make such a big difference in flavor. Definitely a must try.
