A fantastic place to eat for lunch or dinner. It’s a little noisy on the inside. Be aware of where you’re sitting. Everything was super delicious! The mofongo was awesome! Portions seem large. Next time I will get a la carte.

Very cool downtown tex-mex cantina a few blocks removed from Central Ave in St Pete. Nice outdoor courtyard seating with a fountain but we opted to sit indoors to enjoy the art and unique touches like the Mexican wrestling masks:) We tried the Pomgranate Margarita with duck enchiladas, blackened chicken salad and sweet potato-chorizo taco’s….all delicious. Our server was very pleasant and attentive with great suggestions.

I’ve been here serval times, and have tried several tacos. This time I tried the new filet taco & tuna, didn’t care for either one. The environment is super cool, and I love the location. Tacos definitely need lots of work! (Will post more photos)

A definite must try!

The decor and ambiance were awesome! My veggie quesadilla was delicious, my only complaint was that the cilantro rice I ordered on the side was lacking flavor and very dry. The guacamole was fabulous as well!

Amazing place! Comfy yet fun atmosphere. Attentive, knowledgeable staff and delicious foods. Can accommodate large parties of 10 or more from what I saw. They fit our group of 8 perfectly. I loved the brisket Barbacoa bowl. My 1st time and will return again.
