Overall: Doubt we'll be back again, but a somewhat decent option if you're in a pinch in the high-traffic area.
The good: Prime location with lots of seating, including several outdoor tables. Pretty large menu, including drinks. Reasonably priced.
The not-so-good: Service was extremely slow on all fronts, from getting our order, to getting our food, to getting our receipt. With a 2 year old, it was even more of an eternity. Tacos were average, not great but not terrible. The amount they charge chips and salsa or the other dips is absurd.

Placed a to go order through THEIR OWN website and was given the wrong order (late). Brought the food back a few minutes later untouched and after seeing my confirmation # multiple times they finally made my order. Almost an hour after the original pick up time they brought it out to me and the girl handed me the bag and then asked again for confirmation that I actually paid. This crap experience should have been a refund or at least a free margarita while I waited at the bar. The tacos were soggy only a few minutes later and the steak was fatty. Too many good spots nearby to waste the your Charleston food experience here!

One of our fav places on East Bay. The staff is friendly and proficient. There is a nice happy hour. The real bonus is that Adi always is friendly and remembers our names. The menu is delightfully diverse with something for everyone. Vegas, Baby Vegas (sesame-sear tuna, pickled cabbage, creamy wasbi crema, avocado and cilantro) is one of my favorite tacos. The food comes out quickly and hot. We enjoy the laid back atmosphere and always look forward to seeing everyone there.

The food was delicious but our waitress was horrible she took forever while waiting for us even though there were only 3 other families in the restaurant.
When we were ready to pay we told her and she left to the back sat down and went on her phone. We had to go to the front and ask for our check and get another waitress to help us who was much kinder.

We both enjoy Mexican food and once we started to read the menu we decided we were going to give this place a go. We really enjoyed the tacos. We each got different tacos so we could sample different flavors and each one of them ended up being very flavorful. We went in for a early dinner and the restaurants was pretty quiet and our service was excellent.

We just walked out. Sat ourselves per the sign at the front and a waitress and waiter walked right past us without saying a word. I get that it’s probably a slow night, but that should never affect the quality of service. That is inexcusable but I guess your business is good enough that you don’t need ours. We will not be back.

Walked in here around 7pm on a Tuesday night. Barely any customers present. Sat at a table with my wife for about 10 minutes without any staff acknowledging our existence so we left and went to another restaurant.
I’d say the service was bad but it was non existent. Do better.

Wonderful drinks and tasty food. Highly recommend giving it a try. The margarita pictures is their fruity one and one of the best I have ever had…. And I love a good margarita so I don’t give that compliment lightly.
I loved the bowl I got with the lime crema and everyone enjoyed their food! The ONLY thing I will say is that it is pretty pricey. Our family of 5 with three cocktails, a beer, two kids meals, two tacos, a bowl, and a burrito was $160 with tip. NOT a cheap spot but very few downtown Charleston are.
