LukeAugust 7, 2015This place has committed the crime of being ok. Just ok. Happy hour lowers the price of ok, making it more ok
Coco ZoabiAugust 7, 2015Guacamole is NOT good. It's watered down or something. Seating is awfully cramped. Foursquare better alter their grading system.
jill n.September 10, 2012Really shocked that these tips speak well of the margaritas. Margaritas are supposed to have fresh lime, and not be carbonated or on tap. Terribly disappointed.
Dominic ScholtisNovember 10, 2018Decent margaritas, tacos and vegetarian plate are ok, but people who are enthusiastic about it obviously haven‘t had tacos in California, Australia, Germany… and I haven‘t even been to Mexico 😊
Ramona ArmitageDecember 3, 2019Nice atmosphere but the food was really disappointing and very one flavour in each dish.
Camarones a la Mexicana, chile relleno, and the don pepino.
