Being told soon after sitting down, with a reservation, that we needed to leave after 1 1/2 hours is a very bad first impression. One of our party's beer sat on the bar until we flagged someone down and asked for it to be brought to the table. I had 3 different tacos-it was Wednesday- and they all tasted the same. The margaritas aren't great and are pricey. Won't be back.

What a fun place!!! I will say, if you make a reservation, and they are full for the night, your reservation is only good for 90min The atmosphere is awesome! They might be under-staffed, like everyone else, but the staff is so nice. Our server was Danielle - she was awesome !! We tried a margarita flight (on point!!!!), some guac (peanut/honey), some salsa (we had the ghost), the quesadilla and the Bubba tacos. Everything was AMAZING. I have no idea how anyone could say this place is bad.

Food was great. Was put-off by the fact that when we were seated we were told we could only stay 90 minutes due to so many reservations. At our 90 minute mark we were just finishing and wanted another round of margaritas. Which they did allow us to order. Especially since there were multiple empty tables. The comment came off weird because the restaurant was never packed the whole time we were there. There were always empty tables. Just seems a weird thing to say.

It’s great for a photo opp. Very similar to any other taco restaurant. Menu is hard to see in the lighting and shells were a bit stale.

Wednesday taco deals are great and they have some new items on the menu. Good flavor, good size, love it. Margaritas flights are nice too if you like mixing and matching.

First time trying this place. Service was impeccable. Tried the orange habanero (at the recommendation of our server Kristen) and jalapeno cilantro margaritas and they were both awesome. Salsa and Guacamole were both very good. Lots of guac styles but we went with plain. Both our tacos were on point. Wife got the Classy and I got the Bistecca. You get two total with choice or soft or hard shell. Very filling and generous portions. Manager walked around to check and make sure everything was good. Overall great experience and they have an option to give "Props" to the kitchen for $5, which we opted for. No reason they shouldn't get credit for the experience too. Would definitely go back again!

We wanted to have a place to dine at that wasn’t too crazy and delicious. This is the place! We had one of their tequila flights and their margarita flights. Can’t believe how good they were. Their tacos are delicious and diverse. I love the Mexi which was soft shell, chorizo, vegs and an EGG! My wife got the bistecca. She said the steak, cheese and cabbage (minus the corn) was incredible. No better place for tacos and tequila!!

Service was atrocious. One waitress serving 50+ people. Not her fault. Food was bland, meager portions and over priced. Beautiful establishment, poorly staffed and food was less than ok. Zero recommendation.
