“ I always love this place. It's always busy which is okay. So I got my tacos to go.. ”
“ Came here because our original plan for Taco Tuesday fell short. We saw they had happy hour specials all day on Tuesday— especially for drinks. They had it written on the menu as 2 x 1 Tequila Sunrise $14.50, which to me and many other people would be 2 drinks for the price of one! We ordered our drinks, and then our food. I even specifically asked for the Happy Hour cocktail. Drinks came out after some time. Food was delicious and great. Our problem was when we got our tab and the price for the drinks was 30$. I immediately was confused and asked her if it was supposed to be 14$ since the menu says two for one? She went off on this long explanation about how it’s not that at all— and that’s it’s two shots in one cup. Nowhere on the drink menu does it specify that they mean shots. She even said that many people get confused by this— So if that’s the case why wait until after we order the drinks and then explain to us how it works? She didn’t offer to correct the price on our bill at all. Definitely won’t be back because the menu is misleading— which is a bummer because the food was great! ”
“ Great food and atmosphere. The food was hot and made promptly. My wife was displeased with our particular waiter. I think she may have been so uninterested in working because it was late at night. I still left a tip because the food was great. It stayed packed and we were there til after 2am. ”
“ Great food best atmosphere and our server was the absolute best!!!!! So glad we came! ”
“ My party of 7 came in today on the 4th and were greeted by a waitress. She sat us and immediately took our drink orders. She explained that she was by herself on the floor and that she would take care of us as quick as possible. The poor girl was up against it. Patrons started to pile in. She never stopped. The food was incredible and the service was flawless even though she was up against it. I ordered the dollar street tacos and shrimp ceviche! I am so pleased. Kudos to Alex for standing 10 toes! ”
“ One waiter this evening, she definitely needed help! Trying to serve 4-5 tables, that’s not going to work. The waitress forgot the second beer I ordered and I needed to ask for chips and sauce. Food was good but mediocre service. One of my favorite place to eat but not this afternoon! ”
“ I don't usually say this in a review but check out the bathrooms! Someone really put some effort into the anesthetic! Now the important part. The service was excellent, our waitress, while very busy in a packed restaurant, never failed to check on us or bring us items we needed. Did I need that extra margarita? No but bless her heart it was good. Each of us got the taco platter special with different meats. I went with Pastor, Carnitas, and Barbacoa, all of which were tender and flavorful. The rice was good and the beans were a little thin but I was focused on the tacos which were excellent. We also had chips and salsa and the hot salsa was actually hot! I would recommend this spot to anyone looking for good tacos and margaritas with an eclectic flair. We will certainly come back. ”
“ Glad I stopped in! The al pastor tacos didn’t stand a chance with that flavor. During happy hour, you get four for about $8 bucks and they were gone in about 60 seconds. This place is definitely worth trying if you’re in the area! ”
