ChloeCupcakes LeeOctober 27, 2013Service is great!! They are on top of things here-didn't have to ask for anything. He just knew to come with what we needed as we needed stuff. The chips are extra crispy and still warm. Yum.
Margaritas are onnnnn point! Servers are great and always very nice and fun to talk to! Shout to Victor! He always does a fantastic job
Mire SotoJuly 20, 2013Love the avocado salad! Best thing I've tried here... You have to try the margaritas too.

I always ask for Victor when I come here. Love the drinks at this place!
Ask for German (pronounced ehair-mon) he is so nice! & very attentive without being overbearring!
Intown Expert, Jennifer Kjellgren & AssociatesFebruary 15, 2013Standard Mexican fare but with a great outdoor patio on Ponce.
The cover model is patrick hanson. Look him up on facebook he will send you 5 bucks if you add him.
If you're a guy and you have to poop, you're shit out of luck. There is no door to the "sit-down" portion or the men's restroom.
Bathroom is a bit gross... Looks like a third world nation hot spot
RaymondGMay 1, 2014If u like shitty waiters on they're phone the whole time they r waiting on u and nats flyin around your food ,eat here.
PeterOctober 28, 2011Worst excuse for Mexican food. EVER. Purina dog food is likely better. If you think this place is good you really haven't had good Mexican food. Or a good margarita.
Jenna WebbJanuary 27, 2012This place WAS my fave place to get Mexican in ATL for years, but the last visit was terrible! They changed the salsa and it's gross, and the waiter sucked.
Yikes! They changed the chips and they're tasteless - watch out!

"The menu changed recently. It seems to have kept the best around (buffalo-jerk wings) and added a lot of different options for sliders, which you can mix & match. The only downside is no more tacos!"
