   Showed up 10 minutes early for a 5:45 reservation and were told we had to wait. That’s fine. But then we didn’t get a table until 6:00. What’s the point of a reservation? Noise level was ear splitting.

   Went here before Seinfeld show at the Beacon. Great margaritas, good tacos, fun vibe. Wish we had something like this in Westchester. We will definitely go again when we are in the neighborhood.

   Everything was great but they brought our dinner a few minutes after our appetizer. They were doing it with all the tables around us. That was a real turn off!

   Overall, impressed by the atmosphere of the restaurant— lots of space and nice decor. Service was very slow and our table was rarely checked on. However, we went during Saturday brunch, so understand the busy atmosphere. Food was tasty, but for the price I would say the portion sizes could’ve been bigger. The chips and queso were amazing— would definitely come back for drinks and appetizers, but not sure if I’d pay for a whole meal again.

   Energetic, somewhat too loud, food was OK, tacos not bad but nothing special. Guacamole is excellent. Same for drinks - margarita was great but the drink my husband took was super strong, he had to return it.

    Taco Tuesdays is not only a great deal but delicious! Keep going back almost every week! Baja fish & Shortrib tacos are consistently our faves but the Potabella “shrooms” is fab for vegetarians!

    Food was ok. Margaritas were weak, I ended up paying $8 to add a shot to the house margarita. Then asked for one with fresh-squeezed lime and a better tequila, it wasn't any better. $8 for chips seems a bit excessive.

    This place has the worst Mexican food I’ve ever had. Who is actually giving them 4.5 stars. The service and the menu, as it is constructed online, is confusing. No one came to our table until we got up and asked if there was table service. When the waitress arrived she was unhelpful. The best part about the entire meal was the NON complimentary chips and salsa. None of the 3 salsas scored an 8 out of 10 rating. The food was poorly seasoned. Even the rice and beans was bland. Honestly, keep on moving.

    Service and food where good but noise level is high. I would recommend if your seeing a show at beacon and want a good quick bite. Overall an 8 out of 10. We got seated and out in about 40 mins so great for our purpose of getting to show early. You will need a reservation on a show night but great little Taco place with good cocktails.

    Food was tasty but it came out wayyyy too fast. We were in and out in less than an hour. Definitely felt like they wanted to turn over the table quickly and it was not a busy night as we were there on the Friday after Thanksgiving around 7pm. Also, portions a little skimpy for the price. This would be a good place to go if you were in a rush and were hitting a movie or a show at the Beacon.

    As other diners have indicated, the food came out of the kitchen very quickly, and most of the food was very tasty and well prepared. My only issues were with an order of chips and salsa that I needed to ask about several times before they eventually came out once everyone had already finished their dinners. In addition, the rice bowl off the kids menu that I ordered for my five year old daughter was served with spicy blackened chicken and a hot sauce mixed in with it, that made it way too spicy for her palate. The server seemed sympathetic about my complaint, and offered a free extra scoop of ice cream, which I thought was a nice gesture.

    Literally no space between tables, was right on top of people next to us. Chaotic inside - very crammed. Good if you're looking for a quick bite - the food comes out in minutes, this is not a good date night place. Went here because close to Beacon theater. Food was good - drinks were too expensive for small sizes.
