    You're not cheap, you're smart!... Three course dinner for two guests, $45. Start with our legendary guacamole, choose one of our 3 offered apps, then pick 2 types of our authentic tacos (two per selection) and finish with our in house made churros. A Olmeca Altos house margarita for two available for $25!

    Quite noisy, but service was good and food was good, lighting was strange, some parts were ok, other parts were pretty dark. The walk downstairs to the restroom was hazardous as for lighting. Overall good, went two days in a row.
