Really good, hit the spot. It was what I was caving and it's what I got, stake tacos was even good the next day cold. Left over salsa and chips became a movie date night with the BF days after!

Birria tacos are great. Margaritas were also very good, and reasonably priced. Our only issue was the service at the bar. Three bartenders working but none of them were greeting customers sitting at the bar. Servers would stop by to take your order, but their focus was clearly on their tables. Despite that we enjoyed ourselves immensely. I felt like I was eating authentic Mexican food, not something dumbed down for Middle America's standards.

This is your classic Mexican food joint that does everything exceedingly well without having to make a trip to South O. They were easy to work with and accommodating with a large lunch order for our executive team. Will be back at dinnertime to try a marg!
