Hands down THE BEST food of all types of food! Delicious Margaritas, too! Great service, too! Our server was friendly and did a great job! A man i believed to be the owner came around and visited his guests, he was very friendly and professional. His passion to run a great business and serve amazing food is very apparent, i will be going back again and again for years to come!

What a shame. This restaurant came very highly recommended, but the experience was nothing short of a disappointment. The tacos were below par, the tamales were well below average, and the rice and beans had no flavor at all.
To make matters worse, part of my order was never even delivered. For a place that promotes itself so highly, they failed at every step. I would not recommend wasting your time or money here.

The atmosphere was the best part of dinner. Waitress took order and never checked to see how we were doing. Rice and beans to top come with the meal, never received.

The food was excellent I ordered a store burrito and it was huge which I liked because then I can take home some. There wasn't a food item we didn't like and we will definitely come back.

So we stopped in on a Friday night, it was busy, but nothing crazy. We get a table right inside the door. This is going to sound petty I know, but they have a light in the entry way that must be on a motion sensor. So the light would go on and off a lot... was really annoying and distracting where we were sitting.
The service was severely sub-par. It took nearly 15 minutes after we ordered our drinks to get them to the table. My one rule for judging service quality is was my drink full, and were there chips on the table. These are the two things that the waiter has the control over. I will never take poor food quality or if food takes forever to come out, on the wait staff as they have no control over this. Our waitress never stopped by until our food came out, and then again after we were all done eating... unacceptable.
The food quality was fine, nothing to write home about, but was good. I had a burrito, my wife had some nachos.
All in all, this was a 3 star experience. I know this place is new and they are likely working out all of the kinks. I plan on stopping by again, in the hopes to raise my review. If you have the opportunity stop by and prove my review wrong and let me know.... hopefully I just caught them on a bad night.

The two of us shared a meal and ate it on napkins. We each had one napkin each. It was like we were there but no one saw us.
