Food was amazing! We started off by having the nachos & guacamole then for our main dish we had the 3 tacos birria, french toast with ice cream & crème brûlée pancakes. The pancakes was pretty big so it would be enough for one person or to share among each other.
Overall, the staffs were very friendly & nice. They accommodate to all customers with respect! For sure will come back !
I ubered a burrito, & it was very good. I would have given 4 or 5 stars. But I ordered guacamole inside the burrito, & guacamole on the side also, & there was no guacamole.
Je suis assez déçue de mon expérience. À notre arrivée, on nous a dit de manière brusque que le restaurant était fermé, sans d'autre explication, après que j'aie passé 20 minutes à chercher du stationnement & fait un long déplacement.
En parlant avec le gérant, il m'a expliqué que la dernière table est servie à 22h. Je comprends, mais cette information devrait être clairement indiquée.
Finalement, le gerent dit a une serveuse de nous servir, & la serveuse a refusé de nous servir, en disant qu'elle n'allait pas demander à la cuisine parce qu'ils allaient la détester. Son attitude était très désagréable & donnait l'impression qu'elle décidait elle-même des règles.
Service was amazing & we loved the whole staff. All so nice, super friendly, stayed to chat & makes you feel like part of the family atmosphere. Will absolutely be back & cannot wait to come again.

They Could do better with service came at Cinco da mayo sat for almost 30min no one asked if we needed anything it wasn't even that busy..otherwise the tacos & the margaritas were good
Very cute Mexican spot! I went on a Thursday night, & even though it was busy, they did their best to get us a table. The staff was friendly & super kind. I had the birria tacos with a strawberry margarita🫶🏼everything was very fresh & really good.
Service can be a bit slow, but the quality of the food makes up for it. For dessert, we shared churros with ice cream. The churros were to die for😩so fresh !! But I'd probably skip the ice cream next time since it was a bit too much.
Overall, I really enjoyed this place. Just come with a bit of patience, as service may take longer than expected 😬but the food is definitely worth it!
