    Order everything. Gluten free friendly menu (the fried avocado is blue corn, not breadcrumbs) & pork belly taco should win every award ever. Bonus: fabulously gorgeous restaurant!

    Excellent fresh food, great service, reasonable prices, a little strange environment. Wait staff could be on Food Network with their knowledge about the food and ability to describe it.

    Everything we tried was outstanding. Guacamole and salsa; so fresh and tasty. The chicken enchiladas were delicious, same with the fried avocado taco. Drinks: Flaca & Chupacabra. Amazing resto!

    I had a light dinner of margaritas (truly tasty), special summer squash salsa with the BEST homemade chips, one taco carnitas, and it was all perfect.

    I want to move on and try some of the tacos, but the chicken enchiladas (Xmas style with both mole and verde sauce) are too good not to order!

    Guac flavorless goop. Needs salt, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice. Tempeh chorizo tacos needed salt.
