A casual spot to enjoy Mexican inspired food. I was here with a friend and my 9 year old. We all had the enchiladas with beef. Very delicious and the beef was tender. Yum! I liked the freshness of the margarita (regular) I could taste the lime. My daughter had a guava lemonade. The servers were friendly and attentive. We had a good relaxing time; there is a time limit of 90 minutes for dining, but we were not rushed and left when we were ready. I look forward to going back.

Everything we got was great! According to my mom, not many places have elote, so she was thrilled to eat that (and it was yummy :)) In my opinion, the pastor tacos were the best – would definitely recommend to pastor taco enthusiasts.

Fantastic Mexican food with a really friendly laid back atmosphere. Delicious tacos (had fish and shrimp) with reasonably priced beers. Servers were helpful and attentive. They have a few tables outside and a covered seating area however inside is air conditioned and exactly what we were looking for. Would defiantly come again!

I was skeptical about going here for dinner because the pictures of the food on Yelp and Google did not look so good. But I’m glad that I went! I loved the food, and the service was amazing. Definitely recommend this place, it also has good outdoor space for the summer months!

This place was an absolute slam dunk! Amazing Spanish food for good prices and when I went the atmosphere was super laid back. Unbelievable service, got our food in probably less than 15 minutes and the staff was very nice. Highly recommend!

Liked some of the old school music but found that the tables were way too close together. The carnitas tacos I ordered were good in flavor but the meat was a little tough. It needed a lot longer cooking. It was also greasy. The oil left my fingers orange. They also need to put an actual light fixture with an actual light in the bathroom. It was so dark. I couldn’t believe it. When I asked to speak to a manager I was told that they weren’t on the premises. Don’t know if I’d go back
