We stopped here on our way through Lexington. Saw good reviews so figured we’d give it a try. It was absolutely fantastic!! Even better than we expected! Everything about it was wonderful. The ambience is so cool, the hostesses at the front were so nice, our server Sean was absolutely fantastic and the food and drinks were all SO delicious. Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had and the drink i ordered was awesome. Seriously, what a great experience all around!!

We are in town from Tampa, FL & REALLY wish we had one of your restaurant where we are from! From the moment we walked through the door, this was a memorable experience. We told our friends about it, and 20 of us come back again the next day!

An establishment that promises and delivers epic tacos! If that statement wasn’t enough to sell you on eating here the staff is friendly and helpful. Hilarious t-shirts are sold as souvenirs and the drinks from the bar are near perfection!

Best tacos of my LIFE! Shawn helped find a few tacos (Beekeeper and Happy Pappy) which filled me perfectly. Service with a smile. No annoying, loud music. What a perfect atmosphere for a mid afternoon lunch. THANK YOU!

This place is a must-try when in Lexington! The tacos are unreal, huge in proportion and phenomenal in flavors! I loved the seafood options and they had a great variety for Taco Tuesday as well! Two tacos will definitely fill you up. Will definitely be back to try more!

We were traveling through and decided to stop for lunch. Our server, Curtis, was extremely helpful with explaining the menu once he found out it was our first time. This is a unique place to eat. The food was good. My wife really enjoyed her taco and I had one that was very good and one, The Bomb, that lacked flavor. However we would be glad to stop again when back in the area.

Food and drinks were excellent. pineapple jalapeño margs were very fresh. Elote and queso for appetizer were both tasty. Everyone crushed those but the queso stole the show. Pic is of the cheesy amigo which was unreal. Staff was super friendly and accommodating for our group of 7!

Downtown prices but worth it! Definitely recommend the Irish Nachos. Amazing, and enough food for two people. I was almost disappointed to see that the taco prices are for ONE taco, but they are super tasty and high quality ingredients. Get the Sugar Daddy of the Plain Jane if you’re hungry!! The Cheesy Amigo was so good, best pastor I’ve tasted.
