    This place has committed the crime of being ok. Just ok. Happy hour lowers the price of ok, making it more ok

    Really 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.

    Guacamole is NOT good. It's watered down or something. Seating is awfully cramped. Foursquare better alter their grading system.

    Decent 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 😊

    Nice atmosphere but the food was really disappointing and very one flavour in each dish.
