The margaritas here are phenomenal!
Very nice vibe. It was pretty quiet and I was here on a date. I didn’t take any pictures of food but the service was great. They were fast and attentive. Had a fantastic range of tequila options. I usually have limited options on tequila at most bars or restaurants but they had a good selection. I had to park on the street a couple blocks away but it was an easy walk and very easy to find.

I walked in to order a to-go dish. It's really beautiful inside, very well decorated, nice and quiet with a ton of alcoholic beverages. It was happy hour time but wasn't very busy. I got the tostada with carnitas to go and it was absolutely delicious. The staff was nice too.

Drove an hour on a whim and came to this place since it had good reviews. The chicken nachos were very good and we were excited. But the rest of the food was mediocre at best. Other than the chorizo and cheese, none of the dishes had sufficient salt and the meat was bland.
I wanted to ask the servers for salt but none of them came to our table until they were called. Maybe that was because they automatically charged for gratuity and so didn’t care. There is also a surcharge for using a credit card that is not told ahead of time.

Great atmosphere… horrible service. The staff is very inattentive. We sat at the bar, directly across from the bartenders and had to ask to be served. They literally nickel and dime you for everything. The food is bland and clearly intended for tourists. Will not go back.

The ambience is nice but the food is was too overpriced. The wings was waaaay to spicy to the point with it burned out lips and we could not eat it. Politely gave it back and I had to order something else and they still charged me for the wings. I will never go back.

This place is a hidden gem, the enchiladas are phenomenal, the mole is the best I've had, and the green sauce is delicious. The chicken is perfectly seasoned and cooked perfectly, so it's still juicy. the drinks are delicious. The decor looks like a local dive bar. the food is pricey, but the portions are large, and the leftovers provided a delicious second meal.
