The bartender was great! Very welcoming and attentive. Spoke with the owner while we were there and had a lovely conversation. Food was tasty and drinks were strong! We will be back!

Only negative was that the mimosas weren't too great. But the food wow and the value was amazing.

Decent taco spot! Ordered the chips and guacamole, plus the six-taco platter that came with beans and rice. The chips and guac were very tasty, and the steak taco was my favorite.
We also ordered a few margaritas — they were tasty, but a little pricey for the size in my opinion. If price doesn’t matter to you, go nuts!

Great place! Food is soooo good. Margs are fantastic! Prices are reasonable. One of our new favorite spots! Looking forward to going back for Happy Hour and Brunch.

I live a few blocks away and finally had the chance to try this place. Friendly service, great guacamole and a salsa that had a good smoky taste to it. Got the steak burrito which was delicious. Looking forward to coming back and trying more on the menu.

Short staff, very very slow service. Food made with quality ingredients but our party of 9 , half the food was cold. Reviews said it was moderate noisy but actually is very very noisy- no soft surfaces so all sounds bounce and reverberating. They will need to improve service to be successful in this area with so many restaurants. No planning to go back. Too many places nearby with good food and good service too.

Waited for a person to seat us for 10 minutes, once seated we were forgotten about according to the staff. We ended up walking out with about 30 minutes in with zero service. Don't even think they knew or cared.......DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY HERE!

We were seated quickly, but the overall experience was disappointing. After placing our order, the waitress forgot to bring water and chips and salsa. The water was served at room temperature. The drinks were just okay.
The salsa tasted more like tomato paste mixed with oil—bland and not fresh. The bottled salsa verde was sour and seemed spoiled. The fajitas were not traditional; instead, it was a large plate with just a few chicken strips smothered in cheese, bunch of veggies, paired with flavorless beans and very dry rice.
Service was lacking throughout, and we eventually asked for the check so we can leave. Unfortunately, we left unsatisfied and had to find another place to enjoy a proper meal. I don’t plan on returning anytime soon.
Please make sure you read the fine print on the menu regarding the numerous rules and charges.

Terrible. Would give zero stars if possible. Waited for water. Waited for the for charge chips and salsa which was sour tomato paste and greasy chips. Steak fajitas consisted of four tiny slices of skirt steak so overcooked it was like chewing leather. Left plates almost entire untouched. You're better off going to Mom's on Milwaukee. Truly horrible experience.

This place rocks! Stopped in for dinner with friends. We were expecting typical Mexican food but were really impressed with how they managed to kick things up a notch. We started with the nachos - a generous helping with plenty of toppings was served on a sheet tray. The pickled onions and lime slaw added just the right amount of variety to the tortilla chips. While my friends enjoyed their tacos, I ordered the cheese enchiladas with a dark red sauce. Four enchiladas, spanish rice and refried beans arrived on a large plate, half of which came home with me. The flavors of everything were rich and tasty. Ordinarily, I'd be hard pressed to comment on 'rice,' but in this case, the seasonings really made the rice a flavorful side dish, rather than the usual filler material. The beans, too, were delicious, but the star of the show was definitely the four, nicely filled cheese enchiladas, with cheese, crema, a rich red-sauce, and a nicely cut avocado on top. If you're looking for a very nice restaurant on the Northwest side of Chicago with moderate pricing (e.g., $4.50 to $6.00 for a taco, with lots of variety, or $19 for the enchilada dinner), definitely check this place out!
