Well. This one looks really nice and the food is good. I know they’re new but an hour wait to sit then another hour for our food is not acceptable. There’s parties being sat before other parties often. I feel bad for the group that had to watch two of our tables get sat before them after they were here 15 minutes before us. Get it together amigo. Mass tables and mass rapido cleaning them. Get the kitchen putting out food faster. You have the ability find the determination to get it done. This can be a five star place if you figure out your problems.

Seriously the most beautiful burrito I’ve ever seen. I was staring at it the whole time and kept telling my boyfriend, “that looks SO good.” He said the steak was well-seasoned. My birria tacos were pretty good and very filling.

The food was tasty, but I have to admit that the service was a little iffy, which was kind of weird since we went around 4:00 on a Monday when it wasn’t busy. We weren’t sure who our sever was since 4 different employees checked in/waited on us throughout our visit. The service didn’t really detract too much from the experience- just something I noticed.

Overall, we had a good meal, and I’ll definitely be back to try their specialty margaritas.

Pretty good place for Mexican food. I had birria tacos and it was on par as other birria in town. Will come again.

Our first time there was Friday 2/22. They were very busy. Our online reservation got lost but they got our group of 7 in quickly. I think the kitchen was having some issues. Our food took quite a long time and one person hadn’t gotten their meal when everyone else was finished. I asked and they happily comped his meal and packed it to go. The food was excellent and plenty! Ana was our server and did a fantastic job. The one star on Service was not because of Ana, but because of how long the food took and the missing order. Ana kept her calm and a smile on her face. We will be back, to try again!

I was in town trying to look for some authentic Mexican food and was pretty disappointed here. Very Americanized so it wasn't the best to be honest. Service was a bit on the slower side. The atmosphere was "ehhh" but clean.
