Can’t recommend this place enough! They have the best happy hour deals with amazing (and very large) margaritas. You get free chips and salsa with entree. My bf and I have gone here a bunch of times now and are always welcomed and treated well by the friendly staff (shout out to Mateo!). Their carnitas quesadilla is wonderful too.

Beyond amazing food. By far the best Mexican food I've ever had. My family had the steak torta, smothered burrito, and chicken fajitas. Every single bite of each was delicious. The guacamole was phenomenal!

the food here was pretty good and our server was nice, but the wait for food... was not worth it for me, especially with the bad DJ with poor mixes and poor musical timing.

Came in for a quick bite and a marg - Lastenia was my server and she did amazing. So sweet and kind. Marg was delicious. The atmosphere is fun - even for lunchtime. Sad to see it's not busier because I think it deserves a little more attention. Highly recommend and will be back!

I usually love this place. Norma, one of the servers, is amazing and she always provides a good experience. However, I went today with a friend and had a terrible experience. Ordered a drink called Caliente Mami and we both hated it. Asked our server, Jimenez, to swap it out for something else and she acted confused. I told her it was nasty and we didn’t like it and she acted like it was a problem. She didn’t take the drinks back and told us she would talk to the bartender. She came back a while later and said that the drinks were good (they were not), basically calling us liars. I didn’t want any trouble so I said we’d pay for the drinks but we didn’t want them and to please take them away. She finally did and got us different drinks. She was talking to the bartender about us while we were there. We were uncomfortable the entire time and decided to leave after a while to get away from the negative atmosphere. We gave the waitress no tip because her attitude was terrible and so was the service. We won’t be going back again unless we get our regular server, Norma.
Update: Went back on 7/29. I called ahead and made sure Norma was there. She heard about our experience and apologized profusely. It wasn’t her fault at all but we appreciated it. She gave us a hug when we came back in and was extra attentive to us. She’s absolutely amazing and deserves a raise for how friendly and awesome she is. Norma is the type of server you’d want at any restaurant/bar!
