We had the caldo de res, pastor empanada, and birria taco dinner. The food was delicious and I couldn't put my fork down. Our server, Emilio, was very kind and friendly. He made us feel right at home, and knew what we needed (salsa, to go box, check, to go water) before we asked. The restaurant is a very lively place, you can tell that the regulars love the place. We are so satisfied.

This place ALWAYS hits. Service is excellent, drinks are perfect and very reasonable especially considering they use fresh juice for the cocktails. The food is always perfect! Great vibes great everything. 12/10 recommend.

Always get the Birria tacos when I come here and they're always delicious. Usually come here with work coworkers and it always makes for a really great time. Excellent service and the atmosphere is welcoming and chill.
