The food was bussin’!
They’ve got free tortilla chips and salsa when you get seated.
The tacos Roberto that I ordered was very tasty, with a generous amount of spice on it. The taco shell was also crunchy!

Worthwhile for sure 🥰

My Family and I stopped here for a late Dinner while we were out of town. We are glad we did! Not only was the food delicious 🤤 but the staff was incredible. From the fresh guacamole to our desserts we couldn't stop talking about how delicious every bite was. The staff really was the cherry on top. They were extremely interactive with my 1 year old son and boy did he love every minute of it. He was laughing and wanting high fives from everyone that walked by. We didn't...
