We came on a Saturday afternoon. It wasn’t too busy but the service was amazing and the food is delicious! The nachos with tomatillo sauce on the side was my absolute favorite. Everything is fresh and the sauces are made in house. We ordered the margarita flight which was not only an amazing spectacle but every flavor was delicious! I would definitely recommend this place! 10/10

This place was awesome! The server was fun and made sure to light the margarita flight sparkler even for the two of us! The food was delicious, sauces are made in house, and margaritas are strong and amazing! The art on the walls is really cool and the bar has a good vibe!

We went in on a thursday night. We waited 20 mins to be seated(that's fine) and then another hour and a half to actually get our food. Place was packed but people who were seated after us got served their food and drinks first. Had to actually flag someone down just to get our order in. Food was great but I wouldn't go back. Also no free chips and salsa:(

I was going to give 5 stars overall, but the 20% service charge on the bill (was thinking it was the tip) gets added onto it and then when I paid with my card, they were asking for more tip WTH!!! So to me service charge is the tip. Paid and left, but their food and service was great. Tasty, filling and enjoyable.

Came here during happy hour on a Tuesday. Really enjoyed the taco specials that came with 2 tacos. Each taco was stacked and 2 tacos were more than filling. The steak was my favorite. The marg specials and nachos were also delicious. Everything was good value. Loved the vibe of the interior as well.

The girl with the short hair was soooo sweet! The best waitress I've had in a while. She made great conversation and was so fast and swift. Definitely love when the food matches the service :) Happy customer right here! :) Definitely lives up to the hype.

I was hoping they save unlimited chips & salsa, but that was not the case. I got the birria nachos. The meat had good flavor, but this was so messy. It was covered in a cheese sauce rather than melted cheese like I thought. The menu does not say it's a cheese sauce. I also got the Misterio burrito. It had way more beans and rice in it than steak. It also came with seasoned fries, but the fries seemed like they were from a bag of Ore-Ida. Not a good flavor. The chairs at the tables were tight, hard to move and barely had a back to them. Not a good sitting experience. I like the look of the place though. The server was great. I don't think the price was worth anything I paid, but I would be interested in trying other items.
