We had been going here for over a year and its steadily declined. The chicken and steak used to be very fresh but now it seems like they're reheating it. Menu has been reduced, prices went up and just overall very disappointing.

My first time coming here and I was severely disappointed. I can say with confidence go somewhere else. Not because of their service but the quality of food is lacking especially for the price. I bought a horchata and 4 cheese chicken tacos and it made me depressed. It costs $26 for both of them. $5 and some change for the horchata, $17 for the four mini taco then plus 4% for card. It looked pretty but the taste was not there.

First the chicken looked and tasted like it was boiled, I wish I was joking. Definitely never tossed on a pan or marinated in their sauce that they claim they do.

The tortillas felt old, potentially frozen or reheated from the day before, and close to no cheese on it. The only thing that made it bearable was the fact it came with the sauces and lime.

Horchata was mediocre at best, and loaded with ice.

Whole meal was extremely bland with no flavor. From what I can gather they were once good and I have experienced their food at the worst time.

Will not be going back. Should have seen the red flags when no one was there at lunch on a Friday.

Not worth it anymore. I've been a returning customer for 2 years but today I've came in for nothing but disappointment. I dont know if there's new management now but the prices went up by 10$ and the quality went down. The portions are a lot smaller and the food tastes reheated. I was served a horchata 90% full of ice, that's never happened before. When I asked for no ice the waitress left and RETURNED THE CUP WITH THE SAME LEVEL OF ICE. They lost a regular customer, this new management is horrible.

The highlights are definitely the chipotle chicken. Tried the carne asada and it was alright. The green sauce and lime definitely brought its score up. I wanted to try the short rib but apparently it’s pork. But I hear it’s good. It’s a really cute spot, though a bit pricey.

A rather lackluster atmosphere.
The decor is nice.
The food was bland in the sense that the chicken was not flavorful.
It appears to be more of a delivery clientele based on how empty it was for lunchtime.

Our new favorite restaurant to order Mexican. Seems very authentic and there is so much to choose from in their menu. Our favorites include their burrito bowls and nachos; they have a lot of variations for you to choose from. My picky eater child will even eat their cochinita pibil quesadilla (with no complaints) which is quite impressive when this child normally dislikes meat.

Ordered (2) short rib burritos… all rice and hardly any SHORT RIB… very dissatisfied. Will be the last time we order from here…. $17.00 per burrito!! Ridiculous.

I have been ordering from them for years. The tacos are great but my favorite is the Elote (street corn).

The tacos are just okay. They only use one tortilla so when you bite into it it falls apart quickly. The only confusing part was when I asked the cashier what the difference between the steak and the carne asada was, he said they were the same thing but there is a price difference between the two so there is obviously a difference… I don’t mind paying extra but I just want to know what I’m paying for even if it’s different spices/marinade or cooking method? The churros were delicious and crispy. It came with Dulce de leche or chocolate sauce!

Good food. And everything. I give the one star because the lady who works at the order, is like she no want to work in it. Give you the things like she’s mad and when someone is picking up food it’s the same. Very bad vibes

The food was amazing. They serve the tacos with this chipotle creamy sauce that easily falls into my favorites now. The food was served in like 5 minutes, lightning fast!

Also, the 4 steak tacos were $15 and they were packed with steak

Yummy steak tacos tho a bit overpriced. $16 for 4 steak tacos. Tacos are served on one tortilla instead of a double shell, so they're very thin. Still delicious and hits the spot!
