We ended up at this place by chance with 6 of us, ranging from teens to a grandma. All of us loved it. The tacos were really delicious. Grandma felt that the guacamole was too salty so the owner came out and apologized, made her a fresh batch to her liking AND removed it from the bill. Both food and service were top notch. The atmosphere was super fun and lively too.

We went inside and asked if we could sit outside and were told, sit where we like. That in itself is reasonable although it would have been appreciated if we could have been given menus. They have a system where you scan a QR code at the table but if the restaurant has WiFi we couldn’t see it (we joined a museum’s WiFi, was very clunky). We are on holiday from the UK and using mobile data is VERY expensive for us. No one came within 5-10 mins so I approached a server (this was a pre-theatre dinner), and at that point another server came & they discussed back and forth who would take our order. I asked for a glass of red wine, was really disappointed and surprised to find they don’t offer wine, so asked if they offer any darker beers. The server mentioned numerous beers none of which I recognised (and my question remained unanswered). I wanted a drink so ordered a margarita, one of my less preferred drinks. I found some of the tacos OK, some a bit stodgy. Again it was a disadvantage that we had no physical menu otherwise we could have focused a bit more on getting the order right. It’s my understanding that if you don’t give 20% tip in the US you are insulting the server so I gave it - but it wasn’t really merited.

These were, quite possibly the worst tacos we’ve ever had. Crappy tortillas, dry flavourless fillings and completely disinterested staff. The margueritas were equally as bad. I wouldn’t bother. Go elsewhere!

They don’t discriminate on the meat you get exactly what you pay for and more! Highly recommend

3 of us shared the nacho plate and 6 different tacos. it was more than enough. the tacos were delicious and interesting. though, the fish taco was a bit greasy, but the rest were great. The horchata was not overly sweet as it is at too many places.

Cool atmosphere with TVs for sports and excellent tacos. You can get a tray with 6 or 12 tacos to share and then mix and match between at least 6 different tacos with different protein. We had the beef and chicken tacos which were both so tasty. Salsas are unique and fresh! We did not have drinks but they have a wide range of cocktails. Will be back for sure

Was craving Mexican food and this hit the spot. Not a huge menu but absolutely enough for us to be happy. It is an ideal place for groups heading out for the night. It sure would put you in the mood to party. Yes, the music's loud. We loved how some other groups sang along with the songs, it really was a fun atmosphere. You MUST try the dessert...chocolate filled churros with pomegranate ice cream....Wow, wow, wow!

Overall excellent taco's and service at a reasonable price. Went here with a group for a pre-theater dinner. We had a total of 7 and they were able to seat us at one large table. Started with drinks, chips and queso. I loved the Rojo Sangria. The margarita was disappointing though, it lacked overall flavor and could barely taste any tequila. Queso was great, was a large portion so ended up asking for 2nd basket of chips. Our group got a variety of taco's and the quesadillas. All were excellent. I especially enjoyed the fried chicken taco, and the fish (cod) taco. Each had the right amount of heat. Service was great. Friendly, helpful and efficient. Only downside to the restaurant is the volume. Is it is REALLY LOUD. The music volume is frankly too high, you have to shout above it - you can't really have a nice conversation with your guests. I'd recommend their patio instead when the weather allows.

Went with my hubby and our three young adults. The music was little loud for my taste. The food was served promptly and was delicious. Server was friendly and attentive.

The food was good but spicy. The nachos are enough for two people. The drinks were strong lol my wife said to strong. The dessert was was so good. I can't forget the good customer service.

We tried 3 different tacos — mix & match 6 tacos for $27; all were fantastic. And the house margarita was great. Will definitely return.

The cauliflower el pastor tacos and the al pastor de pollo tacos, along with chips and salsa, at the Broken English Taco Pub were delicious…even though a touch spicy for us. We just drank a lot of water. :) We were seated quickly upon arrival. Our server and other restaurant staff were attentive to us, checking in to see how our food tasted and refilling our drinks/waters. Our server was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu.

What a wonderful surprise this place was! We were seated immediately (reservations are highly recommended) and ordered chips and queso with the house margarita. All delicious. The restaurant was starting a Dia de Muertos celebration weekend, so very crowded. Service was cheerful and attentive. Crowd was much younger than we are, but we felt very comfortable. We ordered a 6- taco plate. The brisket was fantastic, the fried cod was good and the shrimp, forgettable. The churros we ordered for dessert were the best I’ve ever had.

Stopped for lunch. Great handmade margaritas and the best nachos ever (and we are nacho snobs)!!! Manager named Alan checked in with us as we were leaving and made our day by offering a couple tequilla shots. Highly recommend!
