"My wife and I loved everything about the experience… for the most part. The chips were crisp and the guacamole was definitely done right. The wings were crispy and saucy. My wife ordered the salmon and I ordered the quesadilla. Both of us were very happy and the churros at the end were a cool end to the night. We each had 2 drinks and all four of them were made well. Only reason why I gave it 4 stars was because our bill was $200 and they charged gratuity with a line in the receipt for “additional gratuity.” Thats not something you do with 2 people ordering dinner. Thats reserved for a party of at least 4 or more. Maybe they have been not getting tipped well and chose to implement this, but for those of us use to eating at restaurants, we found it tasteless."

"The service was on point and the food didn't take long to arrive at our table. The chicken wings came out hot flavorful with mix of crispy and saucy. The main dish of chicken rice and beans tasted authentic but not too spectacular. Great experience for a quick bite and a craving for tacos and burritos."

"Third time here and it's always incredible. I never write reviews so this is as real as it gets. First visit was mother's day, they gave us a free shot each and a rose. Second and third visits were for my husband's birthday. Stephanie and Caramel (sorry if I wrote it wrong) were INCREDIBLE. Easily the best service I've ever had. Very patient, very kind, and very attentive. Took photos for us and gave amazing suggestions for food. Thank you ladies. We will be back!"

"We love this spot on Taco Tuesday , special lunch and drink deals readily available. If you gave 3-4 people with you grab a booth/ table toward the back of the restaurant. Very lively atmosphere clean establishment and hot delicious food. Try the carnitas, Burrias, pork and fish tacos for lunch sll fresh and juicy with excellent plate presemntation. Red sangria is very refreshing and spiced just right. Sweet maduros are crispy, hot and candy sweet (must have). Chips and fresh guacamole upon request and are a must have before lunch. They have a full bar that is fully stock and flat screens on each side. The only reason the are getting 4 instead of 5 stars is their bathrooms are 1 at a time, so you may have a wait , other than that we will be back next Tuesday.... and the Tuesday after that...... and the Tuesday after that."

"We arrived at the restaurant and sat down. For around 7 minutes no one came to our table, even though there were several staff members just chitchatting. The chicken taquitos were pretty good and so was the guac. The lava cake was delicious. The chicken enchiladas could have been better if it wasn't for the vast amount of sauce, which did not taste good. The steak burrito was good but the meat was charred. The fish tacos were a bit dry and lacked taste."
