"One of the dopest spots with the most delicious food! I absolutely loved it. I got the Baja fish tacos and my daughter got Checking tacos and they were amazing. The chips and salsa were incredible, but the stars of the show were the nacho fries and watermelon margarita. DELICIOUS!!! I'll definitely be back!"

"From all restaurants in the Gaslamp areas I picked to eat here. Me and my husband chose to eat outdoor dining because we could hear the music from outside already so it would be too loud for us to be eating in indoor dining plus the weather was not that bad at the time. Sergio was our waiter and he was really helpful and friendly. The food that we got was good. I got myself a “la típica torta” and the size of the sandwich was little too big for me I wish I knew I would’ve order something else with smaller portions. My husband he had birria taco. Overall everything was good."

"Atmosphere is cool. Very chill and casual. Ordered a couple of drinks and the nachos with carne asada added. The asada was a wet, like it was just beef sitting in a pot. It was tender but asada has to have a little char on it, this didn’t. The cheese was like cheese from a can and covered every chip making it soggy. They put salad in it. Salad on nachos. The pico de gallo was too much and just mixed in with salsa. It came in a to-go container, no plates. I have to say these were the worse nachos I’ve ever had, no exaggeration. I don’t mind paying a little more for good food, but these were expensive and bad. Two stars because the bartender was attentive and friendly."

"Female bartender was such a ditz. She knew nothing about what she was serving, and her reasoning was... she doesn't work Tuesdays, so she has no clue. She said they don't have a tequila flight (see last pic). She also said she would have zero idea which tequilas they would be anyway (see last pic...again lol). Every interaction with her was painful and awkward. The atmosphere is pretty cool though, I suggest maybe training the people behind the bar a tad better. The trio of margaritas was decent."

"Rico our server was GREAT!! The food amazing!! The cheese fried barria taco was a hit at our table. We highly recommend the drinks too we had the frozen margarita they have lots of flavors. Highly recommend this place for lunch / dinner! My friends had such a great time and friendly staff!! ❤️"
