Wonderful food. Well-prepared. Typical atmosphere for this type of restaurant. But the best part was the Pancho Villa cocktail—a must-have (and I learned it was also the favorite of the bartender)—made with mezcal, chili liquor, their homemade tamarind syrup and more, with chili salt on the rim and chili powder swirl stick. All of our meals were excellent, with good flavors.
Started with chips and salsa and a margarita. Chips are made fresh. Salsa had a good flavor but a little spicy for some of our party. The meals are good portion size and come with beans and rice. We felt that they were all a little bland. Several people in the restaurant ordered Ceviche which looked amazing and we will try if we come back. The staff was very friendly and offered good service. Street parking. Casual fun atmosphere.
Had a double dinner date here recently, the restaurant was selected by the other party all we knew is that it was Mexican food and we both love that.\n\nIt's a little restaurant, has a lot of character, the drinks are strong and the food was 90% a hit. I would return again yes.
