This place is a decent little hole-in-the-wall. I was greeted by a hostess who was eating at her stand. She had to cover her mouth to ask me how many? The bar is well decorated and brings on a typical relaxing hispanic cantina feel. I was served a drink quickly, but noticed immediately after the bartender was too concerned with sidework to engage. The layout of the bar is clean and well-kept, they also have a wide range of alcohols typically not found in hole-in-the-wall mexican joints. Unfortunately the chips and salsa were very generic, I wouldnt be suprised if they pour the salsa out of a jar and throw in an extra touch of cilantro. I got the Tacos Camaron Chipotle and they were fantastic. They had a very enjoyable grill char on the shrimp and the dish was well plated and presented. Will come back again.

Im writing this as I sit here at the table still waiting for my check. Its lunch and maybe 10 tables here. Our server brought the wrong order out and never brought the napkins I asked for. I went and got them myself. Im not super picky about service but its lunch and Im in a hurry so no time to have it remade. Their burritos are more like tacos...dont expect a decent meal out of a single burrito. I weigh 155 pounds and could probably eat three of these including the rice. Oh, I never got that either. Not trying to bash too hard but really look at what other customers food portions are and ask if its worth $8 for a "burrito" and beans.

Food was mediocre. Burritos were a taco tortilla. Caritas were dry. Beans almost made me sick. There were six tables eating and it took forever to get drinks and take our order. Asked for napkins and ended up having to get them ourselves after waiting 10 minuites. The food came and it wasnt even what I ordered. Ordered chicken and I got beef. The only decent thing from this experience was the tortilla chips thats why 2 stars otherwise it would be 1 star. Very dissapointed.

It was ok. I would have thought for a new business, someone from management would have come to the table to ask how everything was. My food was not hot. .. Not even warm. Waitress was nice. Had made reservations... But wasnt really set up when we arrived. Didnt have silverware. Nothing spectacular. .. Might try it again but was really dissappointed in overall Experience.

If ya like waiting for water for over 15 minutes and a margarita for over 20 minutes then this is the place for you. The food was luke warm and mediocre flavor at best. Glad I went to get our silverware myself or the food would have been cold by the time the "wait" staff brought requested silverware back to our table over 5 minutes later. Twas a horrible experience.

Bad service, wrong order, missing sides. Food is really good when they get it right. Waitress forgot to bring our check, when we reminded her it took 20 minutes to get it. Still not sure if its worth the aggrivation. UPDATE: Went back again for another try & it was great.....maybe the time before was just an off night.

Visited with a large group. The server was friendly, and he brought help to assist with the group, which was smart. Food itself was good. Some of the orchatas had to be remade as they were a bit on the watery side, but the new ones were good. Enjoyed my experience there overall.

Lunch specials are terrible youre better off eating taco bell .. They may say a burrito but everything comes in a taco tortilla not sure if they even know the difference between the two here ..

Had the Mahi Mahi tacos... very fishy. Do not recommend. The queso dip and salsa and chips were good. The margaritas had a good flavor, but dont be fooled by the size... it is full of ice.

Food was good. Service was horrible. It wasnt busy at all yet I had to get up and find someone to refill our drinks and ask for more chips. Felt completely ignored.

Great food with a great, breatheable atmosphere. There is a full bar that specializes in latin drinks, but they will mix other drinks as well.
