Wow. So it looks like these clowns took down my review exposing them as failures! My friend tells me that they will not even respond to their employees messages asking them about the store! She says that there are employees that rely on this job and that the owners are keeping them in the dark. these guys are absolute cowards. terrible people on top of terrible businessmen. they do it all! well, this probably won't be up long as these guys cannot face the truth and the reality of their poor character.

I must say......

A+ from me! I really have no idea why this place has less than excellent reviews. At least from my experience, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. I do get that the restaurant industry probably has a lot of turnover and ... it's probably hard to retain good talent... as most industries on that front. BUT! ... me and my fiancées visit here was fabulous. Katie was an EXCELLENT server. She was timely in greeting us, she brought drinks PROMPTLY (which is one of my pet peeves so good remarks are a plus here) and she was just overall friendly!

Food came out pretty quick. We were here at around 4:30 on a Thursday so it was ... a pretty light crowd. The food itself was absolutely AMAzing! The vegan taco was BOMBBBBBBBBBBBB! I'm not even vegan but it was SO good! LOTS of juicy portabellos! I would def order that again. My fiancé got the El Jefe and really enjoyed them, a bit spicey but very good!

The beers were also good and served at a very desirable chilled temp. Some places slack on the temp, but not disappointing here. The salt+lime lager was REALLY good! Will get that again for sure.

The ambiance is also cute. The exterior has a lot of detail and added touches with the murals along side the interior which is also cute. I WILL say that their patio is the best feature and is SO perfect on a nice warm summer evening.

Overall I am SUPER happy with this visit and would recommend this place to my friends and family! & I will most def be back! Especially for that lager and vagano taco!!!!!

Very good food. We chose to pick our own ingredients for the bowls versus having bowl or tacos that were on the menu. Loved it, very good.

Worst margarita I’ve ever tasted, totally weak, and the mix was premade. Exchanged it for a corona. The table next to us had to send a corona back because it was beyond the expiration date. We walked in around 2:30p. Restaurant was empty We were the second people to be seated yet still took over an hour to get our food. When the food finally arrived, it was bland

You have been warned that friends don't let friends eat crappy tacos. $88 DOLLAR pre tip of disappointment. We still tipped the server as well. That is the last time we step foot in here.

Every taco that came to our table was cold. The corn tortilla is the hall mark of street tacos, cold. Should always be warm. So, they don't tear like paper.

They were aware of the complaint, brought a new one, and it was luke warm at best.

It has got to be one of the most disappointing tacos places, I have ever been too................ the menu is pretty confusing at first, too. My friend completely gave up on the menu.

Gave 3 star for atmosphere and service as we were their to eat.

1 star for food. They got a lot of work to do in the kitchen.

The food was great. Servers were great. It was incredibly hot inside. Some tables were directly in the sun and they wouldn’t sit anyone in those places. Some window shades would have helped a lot.

Dietary restrictions: Menu was clearly labeled with specific dietary needs.

We waited for our food for a hour, and when we received our tacos they were cold. Then was told our tacos would be on the house, and when we were to check out he said the other waitress didn’t know what she was talking about.

The food is as expected, college campus food. The queso is nice but the salsa also stole the show. It had a small kick but still suitable for kids. The food did take awhile along with the bill. It felt quite slow for a late afternoon with few people. However the atmosphere with the wall pictures are amazing and kept me occupied while waiting. The art raps around all the walls and even goes to the bathroom. Overall it’s a good restaurant and I might come again.

Vegetarian options: Have mushroom ‘meat’ and good black bean protein options.

Dietary restrictions: Clearly shows gf and vegetarian options.

This was my first & last time dining here. The experience was unpleasant and the food very was mediocre. The cola marinated steak was not tender or tasty. No one greeted the customers as we were waiting to be seated. We stood in the door for a long time before someone finally decided to acknowledge the long line of people waiting. The restaurant was short staffed, but this is never excuse for poor customer service. The waiter was not very friendly or welcoming. I don’t recommend eating here.
