Incredible! The margaritas were sooo delicious and made with freshly squeezed lime! Great selection of flavors too. The tacos were soo fresh and delicious since they’re served with their hand made tortillas it makes a hell of a difference in the flavor just amazing all around can’t wait to go back!

I had such an amazing experience at this beautiful restaurant. The atmosphere and decor was so adorable and cute and unique. The service was great and the food was beyond delicious. Literally the best shrimp taco I’ve ever had in my life. There’s no doubt about it. I will be back And I highly recommend you check them out.

I just went there for the first time tonight and was blown away. Ray was amazing he walked me through the menu and helped me pick out some tacos the pulpo, Birria, ribeye steak and the Baja fish taco and everything was amazing. I ordered a margarita on the rocks and it was made with all fresh ingredients and was by far the best margarita I have ever had and I’m a bartender who knows a well crafted cocktail and it was so good. Thank you Ray for a great time I will definitely be back.

Food was good. Prices are comparable to other Mexican restaurants. However, the portions were small and did not reflect the prices that were charged.

We ended up double tipping, and learned a valuable lesson to be sure to check our bill more thoroughly. There were no signs or notification anywhere (ex: on the menu) that the tip is already included. We believe in tipping generously. But we don't need the business deciding for us. We hope they make adjustments. Very disappointed. If portions we
