Really really loud upstairs! Had to leave because we could barely hear each other. Love the downstairs, more laid back. Wish it was open.
Our server didn't check on us after our food was delivered and she wasn't the one to deliver it. I had to flag her down for the check. The restaurant took away their vegan options. When I asked if they had any vegan options the server offered me a cheese quesadilla. That's not vegan. The food was not food. Shrimp tacos were horrible.
Good casual spot. My wife and I love their nachos specifically, and I like going for catching a game if there's something on that we're already in the area for. Drinks are good. They always have a good NA beer so I appreciate that! Otherwise service is good, and it's a cool spot, nice for a good weather day as they have an open rooftop.
If you enjoy staff hovering at your table, silently turning away, and taking your food mid-meal without asking, this is your spot. My first drink tasted like chemicals, the “mojito” tasted like… not a mojito, and the street fries/tacos were aggressively average. Only win was the chips and salsa. The vibe? Imagine dinner with a side of political rally décor. One visit was plenty.

I think it was a very good experience being on a date as a 21 yo intern; however, if I was there any later than what I was (7:30 reservation), I do believe it would've been too loud for 1 on 1 conversation and definitely a group setting environment. In terms of the food, the margaritas/cocktails were 15 dollars each and were okay, but then again I have only been drinking a limited amount of time. I think the tacos flavor was magnificent, especially the Korean BBQ, but for the price I don't know if it was totally worth it. Overall, the experience was great and my date enjoyed the night. We had two margaritas, 3 tacos, I tipped 10 bucks and it ended up being a 70 dollar night.
Ordered a margarita pitcher for $52 and it couldn't even fill up three cups. Each Margarita is $15 so three full would have been $45. Mentioned something to the server and he said that's how it comes. We thought ordering a pitcher would at least get us more value. Server should have given us credit. Cod taco was not good. Guacamole and birria pizza were ok. Atmosphere was not good, no view of the street below and music was ear piercing and annoying. And the bus boys who annoyingly constantly try to remove things from the table.

If I could give 0 stars I would. I was just trying to use the restroom when I heard some woman barge into the bathroom and projectile vomited all over the floor. I was literally in the stall while this occurred. However my friend was waiting for me and witnessed this whole thing take place. The girl that was clearly very drunk didn’t do or say anything she just ran away. Now after I was done doing my business my friend and I were trying to make our way back to our table when the bouncer bombarded us and accused me of being the one who did the vomiting. I will admit I didn’t say anything because I felt like a deer in headlights because as soon as we left the restroom the employee got in my face. When my friend (along with other women that we didn’t know) tried telling this employee that I was in the stall when this happened the bouncer just got more aggressive and still accused me without listening to any reason. Then due to me being nervous and not saying anything he accused me also of being so wasted because I wasn’t saying anything. When he threatened to kick me out we just went back to our table because clearly this man did not want to hear anything from a woman’s side even though there were only women who witnessed it. However we did leave very soon after that because I no longer felt safe or comfortable being there. I will never come back here again.
It was a vibe for sure. The food was excellent but the margs were STRONG! For the service, quality and quantity of food it was well worth the price, which wasn't bad at all
It wasn't terrible it was just over packed and the noise was so loud nobody could hear one another.
Went on a Friday, place was super overcrowded. Kept getting bumped into even when sitting at our table. Food was okay, overpriced.
