We were really looking forward to this meal and had a reservation for 6 PM on a Sunday.
Not only did they seem surprised that we had a reservation, but they let us know that they had run out of food and were closed.
It would’ve been helpful if they had called anybody with an existing reservation- but it didn’t seem like they knew the reservation s existed.

We had heard how amazing this place was but weren't quite sure what to expect. It's low key, simple, and casual but the staff was great and the food was absolutely amazing.

Food was simple and excellent. It was the highlight of the meal. Will return or have takeout from this restaurant in the future. It felt a little self-service type to go up and add topping on your tacos that could have been given to you or on your table. We are not a fan of buffets(even if only for condiments) but there was no choice. Service was okay. Food was fast. It felt a little transactional. But the food outshined everything and was the star of the show.
