Kinda trash. Beans tasted like cigarettes. Chicken mole was dry and under-seasoned. Pork taco was pretty good. They also completely forgot about my food until i spoke up about how long it’d been and they immediately saw that my food had been ready for who knows how long.

The staff was really nice to change my food, as i asked it to be replaced. Very nice and curteous. The food is a bit dated and not exciting. But it's good to check out once.Vegetarian options: QuesadillaEnchiladas

The outside was bright and welcoming with sitting outside. It was quiet inside, I was there before 12pm. Inside was decorated with beautiful glass butterflies . The staff was fabulous, especially my sever Jorge. I ordered the chicken taco. The services was fast eventhough I only ordered 1 Taco. It was one of the fresh and delicious taco I have eaten. I was pressed for time and could not enjoy the atmosphere but will be going back. I definitely recommend this place for a quick bite or a full course meal. Enjoy..

Now, I come here for the vibes and drinks. I love their margaritas. I would suggest getting a handmade margarita because it is superior to the others. Now, to the food because if you are going to drink, well, you will eat. The best thing to order when sharing is the Plato Don. If I am stopping in for a drink, I have the Guacamole. The only thing that I am not a fan of is the greasy tortillas. When the place is busy, the service is average, you get your food quickly, and you have to wait a bit before your waiter checks in to see how things are going.

*** 3.5 stars *** We came here after visiting the Brooklyn Botanic Garden and it was crazy fast. Despite a crowd, we got a table for two within minutes and our tacos also came out within minutes. The shrimp taco was okay (would pass next time) but the mole was great. Two were quite filling and a great deal at $5 and $6. Not the most authentic place, but it hit the spot!

Got the chili relleno along with rice and beans. It was perfect!Enchiladas with salsa Verde was also good.

I don't care for the tacos with shredded chicken no sliced lime on side no seasoning Would not buy it again happy hour margarita was nine dollars taste only like the margarita mix so I bought a regular margarita for price $14 should left with the one drink taste like grapefruit juice, service was good atmosphere was nice Very pricey$$$I don't mind paying for certain thing. Give me what I want.

I recommend the cocktails, but I think the restaurant has a small menu.
