    If they've got the blood orange marg, get it immediate. Oh, it's too girly? Shut your face and order it. When you're on the floor later, come talk to me about girly.

    Went for my 48th birthday. Food was delicious. Started with queso and bean and cheese nachos, then mixed grill (steak, chicken, shrimp) which was outstanding, ended with Tres Leches cake. Great meal!

    Sizzling fajitas are the best! Don't get the margarita if you want a buzz... I could have had a limeade with the same results! Also had the. Blood orange margarita $9.95... Still nothin

    The food here is really good and the service can be good if you go at odd times. They don't allow call ahead. I love the beef quesadillas but be prepared its a lot of food.

    This is my all time favorite Mexican food place so far. The avocado stuffed crab is so delicious I wish I could be there now eating it. The table made guac is WAY too expensive.

    This place is always crazy busy. Can be a little expensive but the quality of food is really good. Drinks are yum and staff are generally really nice and laid back.

    My usual here is a margarita and a big burrito, but being on a diet I opted for a salad and it was delicious as well! It seriously had a whole avocado in it!

    Excellent house made corn tortillas. Great happy hour. $2 draft beer, $4 original margaritas, and $14.95 buckets. (3-6:30 I think...)

    The fajitas are to die for! Trust me I'm Mexican. Austin tex-mex is weak. This is the first restaurant that I can say "I'm craving their fajitas."

    Top shelf margaritas only $9 at night, I thought that was pretty reasonable. The glass isn't huge though and filled totally with ice if ordered on the rocks.

    They have good food here. However, the staff and management are pretty much terrible. Be prepared to wait for 30 mins, have them to sit you down, then wait another 30 mins just to take your order.
