If you come here for happy hour, get here early. On a Tuesday afternoon, the line was non-stop after 6 PM.

I had the cantina burger several nights...

Their prices are just a bittttt overpriced.

These 2 tacos cost me $13.41. Just a Carne Asada and add avocado…basically $14 for 2 tacos that are slightly bigger than street tacos is crazy...

Inside has limited seating, but there's plenty of room on the outdoor patios. Parking can be a bit rough if it is super busy, suggest...
