   Tacos always come out extremely fast which is great prior to sporting events. Beware of the 3% surcharge that is on the bill.

   Perfect time for our large group. We were upstairs which wasn’t too loud so we could actually hear each other talk.

   Our server was outstanding. Super nice and very attentive. Unfortunately, the food was only okay. All of our tacos were way over spiced and some were too spicy to eat. We’ve ordered them in the past so this was a surprise. They tasted very different and very “vinegary”. It wasn’t terrible, but not as good as it’s been before. We’ve dined here many times and it’s usually outstanding, but this time we were disappointed in the food.

   Overall our experience here was a good one. Does feel like some items are a little overpriced (the margarita pitcher for example). Our server was quite pleasant but it seemed like maybe they were a bit understaffed as we had to wait quite some time for an initial greeting, getting our bill, etc. We'd probably eat here again if someone suggested it but not somewhere I'd make a special trip for.

   Decent food, decent service , ambiance is fine. Overall a fine experience. Went on a game day and they had an abridged menu and trying to move you out of there. If you are in the area, I would return but don’t go out your way

    Rather quiet for a Saturday and food came Out quick but it was only ok. Staff was nice but because it was empty they were almost too attentive.
