We are visiting from Florida and OMGOSH this was a great find. From the service.. our waitress was amazing and couldn’t have asked for any better… to the food which was drool worthy… I have all good things to say. Sangria was delicious, birria tacos top notch, and chicken quesadillas were fantastic!

This place was amazing! The atmosphere was fun and chill, the waitress was very kind and kept up a fun conversation. The food was excellent! I got the ground beef nachos and they were delicious, honestly some of the best I've had! The salsa though was the highlight of meal. It was the perfect balance of sweet and spicy.

I cannot say enough good things about this place. I had a margarita that was very good, cheese dip that was great (of course), and carne asada that was phenomenal. Omkar noticed I was checking the football scores and turned on the game without me even having to ask! The bar chairs are very comfy, and to top it all off, the music selection is just next level - it’s like Mexican Alan Parsons Project!
