Just a favorite spot to stop. Mt. Adam's and New Richmond.

Awesome little place on Mount Adams. They host the Eggnog job every year, so we spend the morning running the mountain, then come here for food and drinks. Even at 10am their food and drinks are great. Nice indoor seating with a cute outdoor courtyard.

What a find for a great fall evening dinner on the patio. The weather was great. Service was super fast. We had the Barzon Burrito and Sweet Thai wings. Both were yummy. The burrito was massive and very sharable.

Tacos were just ok. I ordered a frozen lime margarita. It was weird. It was blue. It wasn't very good.

I love this place and come here a lot. Chips and salsa hit the spot when I’m hungry after work or waiting for friends to join. Their $2 street tacos on Tuesdays are great (no frills but delicious meats).

The only bummer is minimal vegetarian options (just the cheese quesadilla right now) on an otherwise very large menu. I’d love to see more vegetarian options added but cant beat their current tacos and margs. Took my family here and had a blast. The servers are very kind and when we all got margs except my sister who doesn’t drink, our server was thoughtful enough to put one of the fun lights in her drink too! And sitting out on their covered patio is great for most of the year. Highly recommend.

My food was delicious, can't complain about the taste. But is Americanized Mexican food. The servers could do better.

Overall good sports bar to hit up in one of the best neighborhoods in Cincinnati. Lots of TVs and good Mex food.

Food was decent but didn’t taste like authentic Mexican food. Portion sizes were huge for entrees. I thought they would have more options/flavors for tacos but they didn’t.
