The food, service and the energy at Gonza keep us coming back over and over again. Super casual venue where families with babies/small children, and dogs (on the patio) are welcome. The food and service are consistently excellent. The chicken tinga tacos are are my favorite. I've tried making them at home, and mine aren't nearly as good.

Another great evening at Gonza! If you're offered the Special cocktail, something like a Blackberry Spritz, try it! It's an excellent margarita with addition of blackberry fruit compote and a little seltzer to fizz it up some. It was truly delicious and refreshing! We have standbys we love, such as the Mexican Flag Enchiladas or the Mole Enchiladas, the Fajitas Camaron and the Tacos de Pescado, but always one our minds to the Tacos del Chef, which might be anything, but is always delicious!

Our favorite place to eat! Awesome margaritas and great food. Get the queso - it's worth the calories 😀

Wonderful experience amazing atmosphere awesome staff. We love how Gonza talks to everyone at the restaurant. Gonza even remembers us each time we go even if it's 1-2 times a year . Sadly we live 3 hrs away but if we lived closer we would come weekly. Fabulous drinks food and dessert. Everything pairs well with the margaritas !!!! Hope we can come back sooner than later.

Amazing dining experience all around! On a Friday evening they told us 20 minute wait but seated us in 10. Delicious food, wonderful service, fun atmosphere, clean bathrooms. 10/10. We’ll be back here a lot!

I was in the area for a work meeting and decided to grab lunch. So glad I did! The food is delicious and the staff is super nice. I wish I lived closer.

The food was ok. The portion sizes were smaller than other Mexican restaurants that I have been to. The food quality was similar, so it’s not like the quality off set the quantity.

The service was good, but a lot of employees walking around half dressed. Wait staff in booty shorts, or with a ton of skin showing elsewhere. Almost like the hooters of Mexican restaurants.

I wouldn’t go out of my way to go here, but I wouldn’t be opposed to stopping in for food either.

Overall it was decent, but nothing to write home about.

It's always busy and I don't have a clue as to why. Very cute inside. I had the chili relleno it was okay. My husband had the barbacoa quesadilla which he enjoyed. You get chips but they sure don't want to part with their salsa. You get a scant amount in the bottom of a small bowl. No compelling reason to return.

Interesting and delicious menu! This was my first time there. I was with several others. Everyone had good things to say about the food and service. They were out of my first choice (empanta), but they worked to find a satisfactory alternative and complementary appetizer. We happened to be here on Wednesday margaritas special day. Good selection of tequila. Very helpful and friendly bartender. I will return to try some of the other menu choices. Good location.

We typically avoid Mexican cuisine because my wife hates cheese and we both hate cilantro. That said, I have come here now multiple times with friends, family and a former boss and always thoroughly enjoy the food and drinks.
The service is good but not exceptional.
The atmosphere is a bit crowded and loud for my taste and the seating is not super comfortable, but it's okay.
Oh, I should not neglect to mention that the chips and queso are great!
In the picture I am eating the stuffed poblano stuffed with chicken tikka and it was massive. I should have eaten half and taken the other half home as leftovers, but that's not the restaurant's fault. ?
