Great food, excellent service. Tried three meat Tacos built my way, with a bit of everything and medium spicy sauce. The nachos were really good but the egg rolls were the best. Highly recommend if you like Tacos.

Understaffed. There appeared to be 3 employees working. Some of my menu items were over cooked and smelled of burned oil, onion rings and fries. They didn’t have fish to make one of the menu items I ordered. I ordered online, but it wasn’t ready when I arrived. This place used to be a great place to grab a meal, but I won’t return after this experience.

Enjoyed my sister’s birthday dinner; lots of laughter, drinks and food. My order included the Eggrolls (which were delicious); Street Tacos (which were not delicious: tortillas fell apart upon first touch, meat was rubbery, the rice was hard); and Pineapple Tequila Sunrise (very delicious). The Raspberry Margarita (photo below) was also a pleasant delight.

The food was decent but the service lacking. I felt sorry for the poor kids behind the counter. The bar was not manned and was covered with takeout. Just not what it used to be.

Wish it had a dance floor to go with that bar and great music. Just a little watery from my meat selection. But it was still good. Our server forgot our taco stands

Good food and service, but not like everyone remembers back 6-7 years ago. The place is dark and plays loud music from the 1980’s, not that it is bad, but not that classic 80’s we enjoyed. It looks dirty, and not up to par. Does not accept cash either, so when you need a $2 worth of sour cream, don’t really want to use the credit card

We went early for dinner or late for lunch. We ate burrito bowls. The ingredients were fresh & tasty. The fellow behind the counter was very helpful to explain which ingredients might be too spicy for us, etc. It was a good experience all around & we will go back!

What I like about this place is that you can either build your own taco or burrito or bowl, or you can choose one from their menu and their food from their grill. I particularly liked the crawfish tacos. I haven’t seen that many other places.

The food was good. Cooked nicely and tasted good. We got the byo tacos. Two steak and one chicken. The steak was fire and I mean that because I usually don’t like it as much as chicken. Tender and flavorful the way you want it to be. My hubs got the chorizo burger. 10 out of 10. The nachos were huge and delicious and my son tequitos looked crazy but tasted delicious. Yes I tried everything!

Food is wonderful, clean restaurant, people are very nice, but they lose a star for not accepting cash! The first time this happened here a couple of months ago, I had to look it up to make sure refusing to allow cash payment was even legal. As it turns out, it is currently legal to refuse cash in Tennessee, but there is some pending legislation at both the state (bill 1858) and federal level (Payment Choice Act) which may change this. Today, I believe I heard them saying to the person in line in front of me that “it’s for safety reasons” – but I guess that all cash tip jar sitting there on the counter is just fine!
