It is a quaint restaurant, but I think we have all learned time and time again in Asheville that size and trying to wow people with ambience never matters as long as what you put out is of great quality. My drink had great flavor and complexity and my boyfriend had a great jalapeño beer. Our server was attentive, down to earth, and helpful as was the manager. We started with the chips and salsa, its 4 bucks and you get to try the pico, avocado salsa, and the jalapeño salsa. Its a great way to sample potential toppings for the tacos. I had the stuffed Chile Rellenos with carne asada and it was fn delicious. From the Chile, to the cheese, even down to the refried beans every flavor stood up on its own and was wonderful mixed together. Its top notch quality food and friendly service.10/10 would recommend. Also theyre starting to keep their kitchen open until 1am on weekends!

Great addition to downtown Asheville. Cool Space. Super friendly service. We had kids that were picky eaters and they accommodated them with exactly what they wanted. The food was so good. Everyone was raving. Im definitely going back. I like that the menu isnt overwhelming with too many options. Margarita had fresh squeezed lime in it and was high quality. Go check them out for sure! They will be a really popular one soon Im sure.

We were visiting the Asheville area and found this little gem! The food and margaritas were spectacular and we would highly recommend visiting this place. My boyfriend ordered the Chilequiles and he said it might be one of the best things he has ever eaten. I ordered the fish and shrimp tacos which were also fantastic! The guacamole salsa was fabulous too.

I dont like much in my tacos but when I asked they made my food exactly how I wanted it. The menu is gluten friendly so I can come here with my friend and have a great time. The people are friendly and that just makes everything even better!

The music was really loud rock music at lunch. Hard to talk to the people at our table. It made it difficult to enjoy the food. It was just okay. We had the callabacitas tacos (not a ton of flavor) and the soup special which was good.

Freaking delicious. Not your typical scoop and plop Mexican, but rather authentic and very fresh delicious food. Service is great. Owners are awesome. Definitely a great spot to check out when downtown. 100% recommended!

The prices are pretty high for what you get on your plate. Overall the food was just meh. What I ordered was burnt and the juice coleslaw stuff soaked my tortillas. Its just not worth the cost.

Great and very Athintic Mexican cuisine!! Eating it every Mexican restaurant in this town these guys are pulling their weight! We will be back! Guacamole salsa is the best!

Tasty! The food is great, has a hipster vibe going on, and everyone is friendly. service is quick. I give it a 4 star rating vs a 5 simply because of the price.

The best shrimp tacos Ive ever had! If I could give 6 stars to those shrimp tacos, I would. Friendly, knowledgeable staff and great place for a fun date night.

Cant find bad food in downtown Asheville, the chorizo was the best taco and the street corn was amazing. White sangria was just ok.

Patricia Clement

Best Taco! I tried the shrimo tacos and I can highly recommend them. Check it out when you are in Asheville .

One word: Chilaquiles. Might be the only place in the South you can get them and they are superb.
