We came on a Wednesday evening, so it wasn’t busy. Our waitress was great. Food was delicious. We got the fajitas and some margaritas that were delicious. Enjoyed the fresh fruit in our margaritas. Loved that they asked how well done we wanted our fajitas. They came out perfect! Will definitely go back on our text trip.

I order 1 taco asada just try.. and it was the worst taco I ever tried..it was small , no problem.but on the top of that small tortilla just drop the burn meat , salty and full of oil. , no vigies or salsa . Just that small tortillas and that salty burn meat.. we can’t complain because we’re on the car already..It doesn’t mean that it’s take out .you put that kind of s—.. please ?. It’s not good to treat people like that .. because they don’t check there order….take out …

Great Drinks! Good food; a little expensive for Tex-mex. Great queso. Warning, beans are very spicy.

This is definitely a diamond in the rough. My son was craving mexican food for his birthday while we were in New Orleans so we searched for a place. There were 9 of us who dined there. The food was great. The catch of the day was sea bass which if you're from a landlocked state like us is like hitting the jackpot. I had the tacos. One Shrimp and one sea bass with house made corn tortillas. They were fantastic. As a table we had Margaritas and table side guacamole and chips. All very good. The service was great. We had a great time.

We had an absolutely amazing experience. Johnny went above and beyond to take great care of us, and the food what fantastic. We're from Houston and travel the world trying new restaurants. It's always a pleasure to find an establishment that believes in great food and GREAT customer service! Thanks again!

This was a delight! Tail end of the night and we're all hungry and wandering near the French Market and there this place is, just as we were discussing tacos. Right away we noticed the chips were great, which is a good sign. Then the food came and it was delicious. Better than what we're able to find in Cincinnati anyway. Bathrooms were cool, service was good, but we were pretty much the only people there that time of night. Would not be mad to go here again next visit.

Great food, service, and atmosphere! The service was fast too. There were 7 of us and they were able to seat us quickly. We went around 2 on a Sunday.

We stopped in for a quick bite. The margaritas were good and the steak fajitas were good, but my shrimp burrito that had 3 shrimp and was lacking. The manager comped the burrito, but overall it wasn't good. I think they just missed the mark on this, but I'd patronize them again.

Be careful! If it's not busy, don't order anything seafood. Had a rough night after having crawfish taco. Also, pretty overpriced even for New Orleans. Everything is ala carte. It adds up fast.

Food was so good I didn’t get pictures before we dug in. Ceviche was fresh and made table side. Lots of drink choices. Salsa was more like a tomato sauce but overall a great place to stop if you are tried of fried seafood.
