Had tacos: beef, chicken, and fish. Fish tacos was yummy, chicken dry....so meh! Beef tacos were terrible in my opinion. Service was awesome though and servers were attentive!

This restaurant used to be the best spot around for authentic Mexican food, but those days are long gone. After three consistently bad experiences, it’s safe to say we won’t be back. Three strikes and you’re out.
The service is just awful—you have to chase people down for even the most basic attention. Tonight we sat with our food for 20 minutes before anyone came over. When I mentioned that my rib eye tacos were mostly fat with almost no rib eye, the server shrugged and said, “So, do you want anything else?” No apology, no effort, just indifference.
The margaritas are nowhere near what they used to be. I watched the bartender, and it seemed like they had no idea how to make one—constantly looking back at the bar menu and still turning out something that tasted completely off. Definitely not the same quality as before.
The food presentation is also a mess—my tacos looked more like slop than a proper meal. The overall quality has gone way down, and it honestly feels like the restaurant has either changed hands or stopped caring.
It’s a real shame. This used to be our favorite place. Now? Buyer beware—there are too many great options out there to waste your time and money here.

Drinks were fine, ceviche was pretty rough honestly and looked like it had been sitting in line juice all day, even basics like enchiladas had dry tough chicken. Disappointing all around

terrible customer service. we eat here all the time but we just made a pickup order, my husband picked it up and came home, and then they called and start yelling at me that he didn’t pay and he had to come back (he did pay) so he goes all the way back to the store, then they called me and said no he doesn’t have to come back they realized he did pay. so now he has to turn around again. i let them know over the phone that that was not okay and now not only did we waste gas but our tacos are soggy due to the whole debacle. their response? they just hung up on me and didn’t even apologize.

This is a hidden gem. Service is friendly and attentive. Food is very good for a reasonable price. Atmosphere is elegant, comfortable and inviting. We have lived in Dedham for years and never tried it. We will go back.

The flavor was top tier 🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾 I went last night before they closed parking was ample that part of dedham was not wicked busy. Just walking in the door I could smell the kitchen’s Smokey flavors and got excited. I ordered my own surf and Turf Taco selection. The Rib eye tacos were truly a treat and sampled a fish taco and a shrimp chipotle number. Truly a Gem

5 stars all around. Good food, quick service, and very family-friendly with our toddler. They provided us with a high chair, a straw cup with a lid, and even served his food as soon as it was ready. Outdoor dining option is available too which is nice.

We’ve been coming here for couple years now - it’s always good. Generous and tasty Margaritas, excellent ceviche and tacos. Always good to grab a seat at the bar and have a pleasant, chill experience with a good food, excellent drinks and side of friendly service.

Today me and my wife came to el centro and we had the most wonderful time! Raul was so personable and really made an effort to express his passion for the food and drinks here. We had his espresso martini special and it was so good! Highly recommend this place. Will definitely be coming back! Prices are good and so is the staff!
