“Super chill hidden spot next to Chase Bank on Bethesda Ave. The space is clean and bright. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. If you like tacos and burritos you definitely should check out this place. They also have a great selection for different kinds of drinks. ( I super recommend checking out the drink menu- fruit drink)
If you are in the city of Bethesda you definitely should check out this place.“

“The food was really good and seasoned. I got the chicken rice bowl and added shrimp. I also couldn’t leave without trying the small steak quesadilla. The bowl was so neatly arranged, and the added shrimp were a nice size and plentiful. The tender steak, was also a big hit. Spent $34.

It was real busy, but the staff looked had it flowing nicely, organized chaos. Its alot to be trying to stand in line and not evading into another patron space while their eating.

Food didn’t take long but they leave it on the food shelf. If you don’t stay they anyone can come up and just grab your food.“

“My wife and I like going there for Taco Tuesday. But there's a woman who sits at the bar. Gets on her cell phone and screams into it to whoever she's talking to for an hour. It is so annoying. That I don't want to go there anymore. Shouldn't be able to sit at the bar and scream into your cell phone while people are trying to enjoy themselves. It is really unnerving.“

“Definitely worth the wait. Took me a while to time a bike ride over to Bethesda as they are only open through (late) lunchtime hours but I am grateful I was able to make it.

I sampled the combo fajitas with steak and chicken, accompanied by peppers and onions, guacamole, sour cream, salsa, and rice and beans. Everything was excellent, really good meat quality and well seasoned and grilled. Rice and beans were superb, authentic Mexican flavor.

I also squeezed in an Al Pastor taco and a Chorizo taco and both were very tasty. The Al Pastor was a lighter flavor, but really solid and nice they include the grilled pineapple as hoped. The chorizo is a chunkier variety, vs ground fine, and rich with flavor as well.

Staff is very polite and friendly, and will make modifications where they can.

Can't wait to return to try more items!“

“I've anticipated the opening of the restaurant. It's authentic mexican ambiance. Friendly staff. Delicious food, best Mexican food I've had since I moved to the DMV. I'll be back. It's Cinco de Mayo and it's my first time here. Catherine was my waitress and she was amazing.“
