Very mediocre tacos and a limited menu of house tacos (so be prepared to guide your own off of the SAT bubble menu).

This place has great drinks and tacos. Unique options for tacos. Margaritas were delicious. Service was great and fast even with a group of 7.

Unique build your own street taco restaurant. You order with a paper checksheet were you can build your own tacos or choose from the chef specials. Large drink menu with a variety of margaritas and other specialty drinks

Delicious food and mocktails! The red, white, and blue guacamole was an unexpected flavor combo I loved, and the smash burger taco and al pastor bowl were wonderful. Highly recommend!

Good food but not close to an authentic taste of tacos. Make your own taco by picking items in a piece of paper first for about $4 and it’s a good idea, but I don’t like how they charge extra if you add more than one protein because I feel like beans and a kind of meat is essential to a taco… They have premade taco combos as well which is helpful.

Service was great, they were able to accommodate a party of 12. The tacos were good I made my own shrimp taco. The mocktail was also refreshing. As for the dips, I honestly was not impressed. The corn queso was literally queso with 3 pieces of corn in it. Not ur authentic elote style dip. The guacamole was also very very basic and lacked something. The floor was also very sticky.

Fun atmosphere for drinks. I did not enjoy the food. Tried three different chefs menu tacos they were saturated with sauces that made them impossible to enjoy.

Super eclectic taco spot with uniquely crafted tacos, or the ingredient list allowing you to build your own. The most difficult part of eating here is trying to narrow down what you want to eat! There’s a ton of indoor and outdoor seating, and yet there’s frequently still a wait (although manageable). The drinks and food were truly impressive and worth the visit.

Bathrooms were gross. Waiter was excellent. Food and drinks were good, but my taco’s were cold and they forgot everyone’s side items. Fairly extensive menu to choose from, which made it both fun and difficult to pick what sounded the best together. I do recommend, but not with kids.

Seen this place packed all weekend and we love us some tacos, so thought we’d try it. Got a table inside right away on a cooler Saturday night when outdoor seating was closed. Unique ordering style in which you fill out a card that’s delivered to the kitchen, a little confusing at first but the waitress was super cool and could tell we were confused so explained it to us. The house salsa was a little too BBQ/Smokey tasting for us but we ordered a pineapple salsa that was amazing! The guac and queso were also really good We ordered steak tacos with cilantro and cheese. I was pretty impressed, the steak was very obviously freshly just cut off a larger piece of meat and the cheese was also very obviously freshly shredded. The pomegranate margarita was a little salty for my taste but I would still order it again in a heartbeat! Loud trendy music but if you’re in a college town you expect and enjoy that. Great experience, great food. Would definitely recommend!
