- Rewan PartiSeptembre 22, 2017They have hands down one of the best tacos. Order the guacamole, the 7 salsas, red snapper ceviche, sea bass taco, chili pork taco and skirt stake taco. They have some great vegetarian options also!
- Tim SheaJuin 8, 2017Get one of the melted cheeses, the chorizo one is especially good, but they're all good. The guac is delicious too! And great tacos!! Delicious food, a tad pricey, but worth it!
- Roniel TesslerSeptembre 17, 2017Might be my favorite Mexican restaurant in the city. Pastrami, Lamb, and fried oysters tacos are amazing. That cashew sauce with the guac is incredible.
- Elliot WehnerJuillet 26, 2015Everything is good here. Love the chips + guac and the 7 or so salsas. Make sure to get extra chips bc they are so good they will go quick. Margaritas are well executed - I prefer the classic.
- Jessica WickhamAvril 18, 2017Great margaritas - Highly recommend the shishito peppers, sea bass taco and broccoli tacos. Friendly staff who rang to keep us updated on our table wait.
- Jane KatzAoût 17, 2015spicy cucumber marg is the underdog of the drink menu. Make sure to eat fish tacos + shishito pepper queso. The best ceviche is the hamachi with shaved fennel and avocado. Sat night duck tacos=100
- Syd LeighMai 15, 2015Brussel sprout tacos are incredible. A must, even for meat eaters.Chicken tacos have great flavor. Get the salsa verde, it's creamy.The chocolate flan is so different-- save room for it. Great margs!

- Paige CSeptembre 22, 2014The pork tacos with the grilled pineapple were truly amazing. We also loved their salsa sampler - each one bringing something different to the meal. They could use more dessert options.
- Mara LecocqNovembre 18, 2014The chicken taco was good. Nice decor/bar vibe and sitting by the window gives a nice view on the street. Not cheap but you pay for the decor, location and view.
- Dan SohaydaAvril 13, 2018Second room in back so don't get scared if the front is packed. Our server was incredibly friendly and helpful with food allergies. Drinks were good, and food was even better. Tacos are small go for 3
- Courtney LewisJuillet 2, 2018Chips and guacamole are a must! Plus it’s served with two delicious salsas...one smoky and the other spicy. Loved the classic margarita and fish tacos.
