Recent Reviews
The grilled chile-lime shrimp taco had great flavor but was pathetic. Three tiny shrimp. The Baja fish taco tasted too fishy. Both were done in less than 3 lady-like bites. They should really consider draft beer too.

Very neat concept , small plates ordered at your fingertips. The Baja fish taco, had an incredible crunch and was pretty delicious. The pork belly taco was in MY belly so fast. Delicious taco I’ll be back for. I also had the ribeye, falafel, roasted duck, shrimp taco as and a couple others. Great place for a first date or to take your already special someone for great conversation and casual eating.

Seated very quickly with only a two minute wait on a Thursday night, servers were very friendly and accommodating including an issue with one of our party's drink orders. We all ordered tacos and not tacos and everything was delicious! It's super nice to be able to order from and pay on your phone without needing to download an app so that definitely made the experience even better.
