I dream about these margaritas. Get it with mezcal, trust me. Feeling adventurous? Try the pechuga. And if it’s mole night, get it. Three delicious and different moles over chicken, with rice and black beans. Lots of seating both indoor and out, but it’s so amazing, there may be a bit of a wait to get a table, Totally worth it though.

Nice service excellent Tacos even better during happy hour . Nice friendly family atmosphere during the lunch time middle of the week. I enjoyed my Tacos and you can taste the love and art put into it. Had to drive around the block a couple of times before I found a parking spot. They also have a parking spot next to the restaurant behind.

The nopales with chips were delicious! I had the shrimp platter, my daughter the chicken platter and my hubby had the mahi mahi platter. The food should have been hot when reaching the table. Aside from that, it was good.

Great find and recommendation from some local friends. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Its was a little chilly so we sat at the inside bar and did not regret it. The tequila selection was great and the bartenders we’re very knowledgeable. Definitely try the house made tequila. The food was unexpectedly great. Looking at the menu was just the normal mexican fair but the tacos were outstanding.

I really love the mezcal margarita, so good! The mahi ceviche was tasty, I’d definitely suggest trying that. I also had a shrimp and a steak taco. I think the steak was the more flavorful of the two. They have some super super hot sauce if you’re very brave!

Stopped here for lunch on a Saturday and I was very impressed! Our waiter was very knowledgeable about the tequilas on the menu and made us the best margaritas we’ve ever had. So fresh with smooth, perfect tequila, and at $9.50 each you can’t beat it! The food was also amazing (get carnitas and the chicken tacos!) everything tasted so good I couldn’t decide what my favorite was! Something unique they have there is the Yucatan seafood stew every Saturday, which I feel so lucky that I got to eat! It was such a cozy dish, with very unique flavors (pineapple, cumin, etc), and the seafood was so fresh. Overall this is a place with great food, an extensive collection of tequila, and unbeatable prices. You have to check it out!

Like mescal and mole? Here’s your place! Friendly service, great food, and I love the hibiscus punch mescal drink. I tried the Saturday seafood stew special and loved it. I am usually not a fan of calamari because it can get tough, but it was not tough, it was great in the stew. I like their chips, salsa, and guacamole.
