Very friendly service. However… Fajitas didn’t have enough meat to make 3 tacos. Enchiladas were delicious, but not actual enchiladas, more like rice with sauce. My kids are picky so one got a rice and cheese burrito, $15. Also noticed the kitchen fee… interesting idea, but instead of a surprise fee, how about you just pay them better?

Like previous reviewer….food does not have much taste. Ordered Argentino burrito. I could hardly find a piece of meat…mostly pico…was not hot in the least. Cast iron plate burrito came on was hot, burrito was not. Chips and guac are fine. Tables in the “kitchen” area are terrible because of all the loud noise in the kitchen…make sure you get a table in the restaurant where ambiance is much better. Come for the margaritas, chips and guac only. Server was friendly, but food was slow because they make so many take out food orders…you don’t get priority in the restaurant. Son ordered steak quesadilla and it was so greasy it was “wet like” so he did not finish. Overall disappointing experience to say the least. Despite being a local I will not be back for dine in or take out.

Bill – 0/5!!! Look closely. What the heck is a Cocina Fee? Exactly, Cocina means kitchen in Spanish. Yes, when ordering dinner here, almost everyone orders in English, not Spanish. The owner instead of raising the salary of his kitchen staff decided to make it your responsibility. Then the owner added this little note on the bill deciding that yes…you are responsible for his/her staffs fair wage. On top of that, it is added without even letting you know until the end. Sneaky bad word, bad word. If I could curse on this, I would. The manager said he would remove it, but that is not the point. They didn’t let anyone know before the bill and just tried to sneak it through. This is such a despicable practice. I will never eat here again. Hey owner, I know you have undocumented staff and are saving money paying people off the books, why don’t you take that savings and pay them more. The gig is up. Slimy.

The food here is very good all the time. It’s not a cheap spot but the atmosphere is nice and the food tastes great. The takeout is also great. I really enjoy their burrito bowls that are nicely loaded with meat and guac on top of rice and veggies. The Gambas Bowl is my favorite here.

I’ve been hearing so much about this spot and finally got the chance to go on a taco Tuesday! I ordered a pitcher of the Bodegarita and guac as an app. Love places that offer big drinks for big parties and the guacamole was perfectly chunky and fresh. I ordered a handful of tacos and tried out some seasonal specials – an arepa and a torta (sandwich). They were both so good, I didn’t even get a photo first. Highly recommend going early if you’re there on a weekend or Tuesday because they are so popular but worth the wait!

Had a nice Valentine’s day dinner with wife. Food and our server were great. Unfortunately, the manager (?) was screaming at the top of his voice at the end of the bar, trying to impress a couple of females. Nearly everyone in the restaurant kept turning to give the manager the side eye, but he didn’t seem to get the hint.

As a long-time customer here, I have been increasingly disappointed in the service I’ve received. They’ve continued to raise the prices, but the most frustrating behavior is the bill they deliver to customers. It is ALWAYS wrong. This has happened more than FOUR times. We go for the Taco Tuesday specials and the bill always has the regular prices, not the specials. It seems entirely purposeful, as if they’re trying to charge their customers extra and see who notices. One time might be a blip. But more than FOUR times? My friends and I are wary of our finances, so we always check the bill. If you go here on Taco Tuesday, I would strongly recommend you do as well.
