    During colder months, weather permitting, venture out to the back of the restaurant with friends to enjoy good drinks in the warmth of the wood-burning outdoor fireplace. Good times!

    The Baja taco was nice and fresh. Guacamole was delicious with the homade chips. Thanks to the bartender for some gray drinks. Bodega surprise a must try if you like mango

    With a number of other taco joints in a ten mile radius, Bodega is good but not great. Go for the arepa, skip the torta, and choose tacos carefully. The drinks are excellent on the whole.

    If you don't get the duck nachos when you come here you are doing something wrong. The short rib hash during brunch is also very good 👍🏻

    My favorites here are the guacamole, baja taco, duck nachos, brussel sprouts, and rosarita margarita. They also have a great brunch menu with $5 sangria

    Seafood Paiella, was awesome. Christina at the bar recommended guac & chips while I waited. Her suggestion of guac with crabmeat, was spectacular. If stuck, ask Christina and she will set you up!

    Try the Empanada Champinones if you like truffle! Also really enjoyed the polla Rico torta and brussell sprouts side! They played biggie smalls all night - good music!

    Great food - the guacamole is awesome as are the margaritas and beef tacos. And be sure to ask for Joe as your server. He's the best!

    The surprise in the tequila surprise is that if you're the one to finish the bottle then they put the scorpion in your drink!

    The food is good but everything could use salt. The margaritas aren't the best either. They've only beer open for 3 weeks though, they have a little of time to improve

    The food is solid, but the restaurant is run like a total shitshow. Servers are confused, food takes longer than expected.

    This place has awful service. Won't even pick up the phone to take carry out orders. When they do, they get the order wrong every other time.
