Best tacos in Poughkeepsie! The owners are the sweetest most welcoming people. It feels like we were eating at someone’s home.

Ordered the chorizo enchiladas. Took one bite and realized it was definitely Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage. It genuinely made me laugh.

That said, the service was great. The bartender was super friendly, great energy, and you can tell the locals love the place. The whole spot has a nice, welcoming vibe.

Would I come back? Not for the food but for a drink since good vibes go a long way.

Very good food. To start off server took a little while to get to us so he kindly gave us some of their very good homemade guacamole, our entrees were great and very large amount of food, the server also kindly gave us his apple tea to try free of charge. Great restaurant and we walked out spending under $50 for the both of us after tip.

The best food option around and it ain't even close; came with the family after we needed to stop in our way out of NYC - our server was so sweet and the food options were fantastic (I'm vegetarian and even I had a roledex of choices).

Very good food. Prices a little steep but comparable with other places in the area. Food is made to order so I would call ahead if you're in a rush. Staff is very friendly.

I’ll start by saying this spot is straight-up dope! The food is amazing, and Ruby always hooks me up with the best drinks.
Half the time I walk in not even knowing what I want, and I just tell him to make me something sweet, spicy, or whatever I’m in the mood for and he delivers every single time!! If you’re looking for good vibes, laughs, excellent food, and top of the line drinks, this is the place to be.🫶

Great home made Mexican food. Large portions. Birria Tacos were fresh and delicious. Margaritas were wonderful. Nice outdoor patio too.

This place seems to boast a lot of pride and tradition, so I was excited to try it. I ordered a burrito to go, and once I was on the train and opened it up, I realized there was nothing but rice in there, with like a tablespoon of beans and cheese—no pico de gallo, no guacamole, no nothing to make it an actual burrito. It was basically a tortilla filled with rice. :S
