Great place for Happy Hour. It's LO at its best. I have the rice and beans with a pork taco. 8 bucks...what a deal.

The place to see and be seen in Lake Grove. Food is good. The vegitarino bowl with grilled vegetables black beans and spinach is terrific. Good drinks as well. They have comfortable outdoor seating that isn't next to a road.

Really good food, I got the tortilla soup and chimchurri steak. Two stars off because at the end of my meal (I was sitting at the fire pit bar area) the hostess came up to set a couple next to me and said to me “do you mind moving your stuff over” (I had my Fanny pack next to me on the table) which would have been perfectly fine and I would have been happy to move my stuff… except before she even finished her sentence, she grabs my stuff and moves it over herself. Which was extremely rude and gross. Big No No. don’t touch somebody else’s purse, ESPECIALLY before giving them the chance to do it themselves. It was a really off putting ending to an otherwise nice meal.

Overall, a subpar experience. Terrible food and service (even though our waitress was a sweetheart; it was painful). As for food, rice-undercooked; beans-no flavor; shrimp dish-soaked in oil. Cool atmosphere. Ample parking.

Really good food. You can literally get anything from here. It’s always so good.

Good food, drinks & service. What else do you need? Prices are what you would expect. Of course, ordering margaritas or other alcohol drinks along with your food increases the price per person. This is one of our go-to places. Can get pretty busy at times, so plan ahead and get reservations if you can.

I have a lot of business meetings here for lunch and the place is great. Good margaritas, good food, friendly staff, etc. Have been here a few times now and seems consistent. Will definitely continue to come back.

We had the worst experience here. We’ve ordered the guacamole here several times before and it’s been great. Not this time. It was like they ran out of avocados and ran across the street to Albertsons and squeezed gross super slimy and smooth guac out of a plastic pouch and served it to us! We were then given the wrong order, empty water and drinks all night… finally got our $32 carne asada but couldn’t eat it because it was blue /raw … sent it back and asked for our check a total of three times to three different employees only to sit at our table (empty drinks, empty water, tiny table full of dirty dishes) for 20mins minutes until our server finally decided to come back but only after giving the host our credit card. Wo t be returning … $100 down the drain

Great place. We went for the happy hour menu - great value but still super quality. This place has an elegant atmosphere without being in any way stuffy. Recommended.

Pretty restaurant, busy bar, not for Mexicans looking for Mexican food. The asada tacos and burger on ciabatta were good.
