   Was excited to try the place. The interior is well done and fhe music is loud so all and all the vibe is trendy. Service was decent but the food was terrible and I mean really bad. The queso was thick as mud and the tacos were basically just a protein put on a cold small tortilla. I can do that at home. It was three of us, we shared three tacos, some drinks and a queso and it was $200. Won't be back.

   Food was awesome. Drinks were great. Barria tacos are a must try. Music really loud but I guess that work for some guest.

   We went for our daughter’s 14th birthday with 6 of her friends. We all loved everything about the ambiance, the service, music/entertainment and the food was really good. The brisket tacos were a bit dry, but other than that, everyone enjoyed their meal. My only complaint is that I had specifically requested a table for my daughter & her friends separate from a table for me and my husband. Not only did I put in this request through open table, I also called to confirm this request a day earlier. When we got there, the staff was unaware of this request and had 7 girls waiting outside while I was looking for parking. I understand that a party can’t be seated till everyone is present, but based on my request for a table for the girls, the party was present. I dropped them off so we wouldn’t be late and went to look for parking. Had I known that they would make girls wait outside, I would have never dropped them off. I called the restaurant and requested they be seated. After 10 min the girls were seated and me and my husband had to wait for a table for us. Thankfully this didn’t take more than 15 min. After that we were all seated. The staff was doing their very best to fix the initial problem and we were very pleased with the way they handled it. We will definitely be going back. It was a very fun evening for all of us and my daughter had a wonderful bday celebration!!

   We sat outside and it was gorgeous! The service was abysmal. It was very very very slow and after 20 minutes we finally got water but had to wait ten more minutes for a drink and the. Basically the entire meal went that same direction. Food was decent. Value was ok but the service truly ruined everything.

   My waitress was the best. The food was ok, it is not as good as what it is hyped up to be.
