Delicious food. Definitely not gentrified white-people tacos. Super cheap happy hour deal too.

This place is closed 99% of the time. I’d recommend they close all together and let someone open that can run a bar and restaurant.

It's Friday night, I'm HANGRY, and I needed to find a place with diabetic friendly options that wouldn't rob me silly.I decided to give this place a try.I ordered two things:1. the $13 Fiesta salad with braised beef. It has lettuce, black beans, salsa, corn, cotija cheese, tortilla chip crumbles, and lime cilantro vinaigrette.2. The $4 sweet potato taco with brussel sprout slaw, pickled red onion, and lime sauce.Both hit every spot and scratched every itch.The hefty salad filled my belly with tender, flavorful, melt in your mouthy beef. It was perfectly complimented by the lime vinaigrette.The real surprise was the sweet potato taco, which to be honest, was a gamble. I admit, I was skeptical. But wowy zowie. A little sweet, a little savory. This tangy, girthy taco didn't just unhungry me, it also satisfied my sweet tooth.Staff and service was the cherry on top.I'm happy now. I'll be back.

The staff is amazing. They are friendly, responsive, and happy.The menu is small, but executed so well that it's impressive.The only problem appears to be whomever owns the place. It lacks identity. You have to enter and ask to even discover what it is.There is nothing but potential here if the owner would invest in the space.

Stopped in for lunch and had a few of the tacos today. Would definitely recommend hitting up this spot. It's been open a few months building a following but the food is delicious, lots of cocktail options and happy hour has deals on both food and drinks. I'll be back to try some other options like the walking taco.

They’ve got to make some major changes if they want to survive. They can’t do much about the bizarre design of the space, but by far the biggest problem is that the food is just plain bad. If you’re going to appropriate a cuisine it had better be good, but you get exactly what you’d expect from a restaurant with this name. The special mushroom tacos weren’t bad but we couldn’t even finish the cauliflower ones. My wife said the chorizo ones weren’t even good… how is it even possible to mess that up?

Expensive tasteless tacos. Nothing authentic about the food - which makes the appropriation of the flags of Mexico hanging outside even more troubling. Taco Bell a block away is a much better culinary choice.

Food was terrible. I get it they only charge $4 or $5 for a taco but they were terrible. I made the mistake of ordering a "walking taco" not knowing what it was and got a 50 cent bag of fritos and a tablespoon of meat and a bunch of sour cream and a plastic spoon to eat it with. This is something that I would do with my girl scouts on a camping trip. ? The margaritas weren't any better. Watered down and no flavor. Will definitely NOT be back. Only good thing was the wait staff was very nice. There are way better places on the same block to eat and drink.

There is no flavor and the salsa tastes as though it was generic jar- prepackaged atrocious. Only the premium margaritas are any good.

The tacos are affordable and super tasty. The drinks are great as well and aesthetically pleasing. Service is good too. I like the limited menu honestly as it reduced decision fatigue. Glad to see their hours have expanded. Recommended!

The people here are really great, but the food is really hit or miss, and plenty of it is just plain bad. The chips are clearly bagged and not good ones at that. The salsa is bland. The queso is just odd. No draft beer at a place that used to be a brew pub. I want it to be good, but it just isn't.
