Do not sleep on these tacos — very traditional & very very good flavors.

The salsa is on point. The drinks are tasty.
While its sibling restaurants get most of the love this casual taco joint punches far above its level.

I wish I knew our servers name because she was sooo amazing! She was so friendly and helpful throughout our meal. And the food was actually incredible. The salsa was like I’ve never had before and the entrees were also so good. We also had cucumber spicy margaritas and they were so big and refreshing. I’ve only been once but this is my new favorite restaurant!!!!

Delicious food that was well worth it! Relaxed dining, many options to pick from, very friendly staff and great place to hang out in. Will definitely be back again! I also recommended the tres leches cake... to die for
