Solid Mexican spot on Mill Ave and a damn good place for a pregame before a night out. If you’ve been to chipotle then you know exactly what to do. You pick your style (burrito, bowl, quesadilla, etc.), protein of choice, and as much toppings as you want.

Great local food option. Loved the Mexican vibe with outdoor seating. Tacos were really yum and they made it the just the way I wanted it.

Nice craft beer from local microbreweries, tasty prickly pear margarita that wasn’t over sweet. Super friendly bartender. Pleasant outdoor bar area with heaters for when it gets cooler after dark.

Highly recommend, delicious tacos, budget friendly, large indoor/outdoor patio, outstanding ambiance – loved the music. . Good for singles, couples, groups. Lots of different kinds of taco fillings, build your own – large portions. We had beef with potatos (yum!) and rice. Also, a great bar! Margareta Mondays!

Was in Tempe and wanted to try a non chain restaurant. The is a version of Chipotle. I ordered three tacos and a chicken quesadilla. Everything was really good. The portion sizes were great. The steak taco was my favorite. The pork taco was also delicious. Nice college town atmosphere. Would visit again

Food was great and huge portions. Had the nachos and it was enough for 2-3 people. The staff was nice and very helpful. Had no bad experience with service or food. Will definitely come back and highly recommend it.

Chipotle style food. I really like how they mix up the contents of your burritos before rolling it. Makes each bite full of flavor. Vibes are good too.
