I was there to hear the mariachis for Mexican Independence Day. First and foremost, the mariachis were advertised to perform from 6 to 9 p.m. The times were advertised with a flyer at the restaurant plus on Facebook. They didn't come until 7 p.m. I rushed to get there by 6 p.m. to grab a table. The place wasn't crowded at all. Perhaps it's because it was a Monday. Furthermore, I wanted to take my Dad who's in his 80s and enjoys mariachis. Through Facebook messenger, they had told me they don't reserve tables. When I arrived, a big section was reserved for the family of the owner. I understand that part. But there was a second table on the second row reserved too. I decided to order a pineapple margarita. They cost $9 with house tequila. That's pricey for the small one. And it was nothing to write home about. For my meal, I ordered black bean sopes with no onions. They're ok. They forgot the cilantro. And the sopes tend to be dry. I was craving something sweet and got a tres leches slice. Their cake is delicious. However, it didn't come with the mini Mexican flag nor colored red and green sugar it had been advertised as. My friend did enjoy her tacos thoroughly. She's Mexican and says they're really authentic. The mariachis hired to perform at the restaurant for Mexican holidays always put on a great show.

The food is ok but not phenomenal. The portion sizes are stingy and if you want something it's an up charge. Despite paying the up charge the portion is stingy and not worth paying for. In that case you are better off going elsewhere. How are you going to have a torta that typically comes with beans & cheese without those ingredients and expect the customer to pay for them? Same thing with the flautas they typically come with cream, cheese, lettuce & avocado but charge for those things? It's just not worth the hype you are most definitely better off going to an authentic Mexican restaurant.

Disappointed on how things have turned out with this place it used to be expensive but now it's just ridiculous. Almost $20 for six small tacos with nothing special on them is insane. Got greedy and are banking on the wealth of the locals.

Had the Tacos de carne asada y de pastor. Pretty good and the handmade tortilla had a lot to do with that. Meat quality was better on the asada. People behind the register were very open and friendly. Couldn't care for the decorations but I didn't pull up for the decorations I pulled up for the food and I ate a bunch so that says a lot considering it was pricey. Good vs pricey ratio makes it a 4/5 instead of a 5/5.

Place was really pretty and the staff super helpful the food was ok honestly nothing special, they have some interesting drinks I'd definitely like to try next time. They messed up one of the orders and the beans where not good anymore so we had to exchange them for something else.

Quality has definitely dropped since last time I came here in 2023. The flavor component is missing from all the tacos. We ordered the spicy tinga brisket and Asada beef tacos on flour. The tacos just tasted bland and their flavor was missing from prior years. The only thing that saved the meal was the hot sauce and limes.
