This place is amazing. It’s so lovingly and cleverly executed, and the vibe is comfortable and versatile. Casual dive bar aesthetic quietly shows its underlying class with a mariachi Magritte that’s perfectly on theme, and that subtle excellence is par for the night. The infused tequilas are an artistic masterpiece, and speaking to Chelseana I was impressed by the dedication and attention to detail of every aspect of this must-visit spot. It’s a perfect demonstration of what the corner bar can aspire to be. You should probably try the fish tacos…just sayin…Put it on your list today!

If you come here, you should definitely ask for the bartender Anastasia. She’s great very intensive, conversation was great. She had all the vibes and she gave out great recommendations. I’ve never tried the frozen Margarita drink and I’m just say it was fresh and hitting. Plus I’m a regular because the drinks and food never miss.Wheelchair accessibility: There’s literally a ramp right on the side of the front door

Let me just say, if the bar is empty and all I got was a little drink and maybe chips and queso sitting right here at the bar so WHY IN THE HECK was i charged 20%, when you didnt even walk to bring me anything????? Consumers beaware. Stop spending at these places that include gratuity when it's not earned. ?. I swear, these businesses will close down before I return to patronized them. Its freaking ridiculous. On a good note the margarita was good and strong. Just know theres one hell of an upcharge to pay though. So I'll just make mines at home.

The bartender was amazing. The food was really good. But the manager with the dark hair seemed very drunk and toxic to the employees, to the point it was uncomfortable for the patrons.
