Fun relaxing atmosphere, great service, casual, friendly, very good food options including vegetarian, and they keep the margaritas coming. Perfect place to meet up with friends! The locals obviously love it. Lots of seating options inside and out. Reasonably priced especially when there are specials.

The staff was great and the atmosphere was great. Drinks were great, had a mojito, margarita and an old fashioned. All were very good. Now on to the food…. I feel like ppl who don’t know what good Mexican food is would like it. Had chips and queso, a grande burrito and my girlfriend had a quesadilla. The queso was gritty and the chips were oily like the oil wasn’t hot enough when they cooked them. The quesadilla was adequate. All I can say about the burrito is I hope you like beans. It must have had a whole can of black beans in it. It had a red/brown sauce on it that also tasted like beans. It was very Americanized and didn’t taste like authentic Mexican food at all. The food was B tier at best. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend you avoid them though bc price wise it wasn’t bad, along with the quirky atmosphere and very good waitress you will still likely have a good experience.

Cool atmosphere. Daughter enjoyed quesadilla and I had the vegan chorizo street pacos, pico is a little bland needs a a little refresher. Vegan queso is good, not a huge of the Smokey taste but it’s still good!

We got queso and salsa to start with. Both were okay but not exceptional. For our entrees we got the chili relleno and the green chili enchiladas. Once again, both were good, but nothing that would draw me back again. I would go back, but it’s pretty far down my list of favorite restaurants in town.

Absolutely delicious food. The margaritas are on point. I’m so glad this place is still here, I’ve been coming to this wonderful restaurant for 20 years.

Always so delicious. I usually get takeout but did dine in on the back patio last time I was there. Great, quick, friendly service. Everything was amazing—enchiladas, dips, and quesadilla. Best margs!!

Authentic Mexican food, great Margaritas, $4 on Thursday night. Tight quarters in winter as table space on 2nd floor limited, but under deck tables worth it in warm weather. Waitress, efficient and helpful. Staff seems to work in tandem Guacamole the best!!!

I have dreams about this place since I moved a couple of years ago. While living in Louisville, I would eat here every week, sometimes multiple times a week. The best thing on the menu (IMO) is the crispy spicy black bean tacos. I also love the margaritas especially during happy hour. I was also thrilled when they opened their second location on Bardstown. I hope to one day return to Louisiville and my first stop will be dining here! 10/10 highly recommend, I miss this place so much <3

First of, find parking road side. Now, they have seating in the back side of the restaurant that is kind of hidden. It was a hot, humid day but the temperature in the back was bearable. They have some fans. Ordered mussels as starters and then fish tacos and Chile Relleno as main entree. 4.5 stars for mussels. They were not cleaned properly and a speck of sand would hit your taste buds every now and then. Other than that the soup of mussels was good and so were the mussels. Fish tacos 4.5 stars again. The fillet was good and done to taste. Beans, rice, salsa was nothing extraordinary. Chile Relleno lacked taste so giving it a 3 star. Server was friendly and good ambience overall.
