Decent Mexican food! Somewhat disappointed at the prices for quality and quantity of food offered. The place is clean and it would be a good place to watch sports. Overall, not overwhelmed by my experience but 4 stars is fair.

Cool cozy Mexi-kitsch atmosphere, friendly service, and solid tequila, mezcal & draft beer selection. Plus a short but interesting specialty cocktail menu.

Low key, fun and friendly. Taco Tuesday happy hour specials were great and generous. Definitely Tex Mex style food, enjoyed beef and chicken crunchy tacos, chips, salsa and queso with house margaritas. Enjoyed it all-and Courtney was an excellent bartender/server!

What a disappointment! We had a waiter with a couldn’t care less attitude. The music is so loud you can’t speak to each other unless you lean in closer. It can’t be turned down apparently, we asked. Chips and salsa for $5.20 with the hot salsa tasting like soap. We asked for an extra salsa and got charged another $5.20. If you feel like having a margherita, get a beer instead. The main dishes were just mediocre at best. Everyplace can have an off night, but this was across the board.

What happened to this place? Used to be good. They expanded since we last went. Now it feels like they’re trying to be be more of a club bar than a restaurant. My husband said his mole was terrible. I got the drunken worm nachos like I used to, but they weren’t as good. And whatever you guys are putting in margaritas is ruining them.

Went for brunch, and it wasn’t bad. Had the chilachiles burger. Two favorites together, sounds awesome. Was a bit overdone. Service was fine, and the ambiance was nice and quirky.

Upon arrival as I was walking in it was very pleasant. The people seemed to be having a good time and it was very chill. Unfortunately it stoped there. I ordered steak and shrimp fajitas with Jalapeños and chips and salsa. The food was absolutely terrible. 40 cold pickled Jalapeños on top of my semi warm fajitas. It paired well with the flat warm Modelo! I couldn’t stomach any of it. Worst money I have ever spent.

Tried all the tacos. LOVED the pulled pork. Others loved shrimp and tilapia. Also had the drunken worm nachos with the raspberry sauce. Amazing!! Fast friendly service.
