Great service, super nice people. Great food, some of the best steak tacos I have had in a long time. If it's a nice day outside, nothing better than sitting outside with great food and a margarita.
Absolutely amazing Mexican food. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because I usually order delivery through ubereats. The last time I ordered I asked for a medium rare steak, it was disgustingly overcooked. Right after this I've noticed they are not accepting online delivery orders anymore. Also in the past 3 months or so I've ordered multiple times, same dish every time. The rate of inconsistency among the quality was alarming when I'm paying so much for a plate. This is a high end Mexican restaurant, please keep your standards high and quality on point. Salsa tastes different almost every time, steak wasn't cooked the same everytime, and the guacamole was extremely inconsistent. Either way too much citrus or just straight avocado.
The atmosphere and vibe are pretty nice and cozy. The staff are friendly and accommodating. I do not go here a lot, so it was still kind of new to me when I visited this restaurant just recently. I was with my family and they ordered a lot. The service is good. There is a little wait, but not for a long time. When the food was served, I literally felt hungry at that moment because the food looked really delicious. We got a lot of food, and I do not really know where to start. Their chips and salsa were fine, and I liked the salsa. The quesadillas were huge and delicious. I also ate tacos, and they were the best that I had based on all of the food that I ate. The tacos, like the quesadilla, are huge, the meat is generously portioned, and everything is flavorful and delicious to the point where I can't get enough of it. The food was really good. Of course, we also got drinks, and mine was a margarita. Like the food, their drinks also taste great. It was just a good day for my family, and we really did enjoy the food and the overall experience we had at this restaurant. I will definitely be back. An authentic Mexican restaurant that comes highly recommended.
This is my all time favorite Mexican restaurant. Any time I'm in town I make sure I stop by.
