So pleasantly surprised by our experience here. We sat outside with our two little kids & they were very accommodating about ordering the kids food in advance. Kids menu offers three crowd pleasing options. Freshly made guacamole & the chef's platter of tacos were all delicious. We ordered the shrimp tacos as an extra & while the quality & freshness of the shrimp was great, they were really spicy so order with caution. The service was amazing & the entire terrace staff were super attentive.View more

Service was great, however the food was not that great. I don't recommend the birria tacos, flavour was lacking & there was mostly the fat of the beef. Good atmosphere however I liked the terrace outside during the summer.View more

Best al pastor tacos I've had in a while! Along with a red sangria it was delicious. The service was very friendly & professional, my waitress Quarina was the best, so kind, attentive & respectful plus she did very good with her spanish! I asked if she spoke spanish (since it's a mexican restaurant & other two waiters spoke spanish) & she impressed me so much speaking on spanish as well!View more

Had late lunch today & incidentally, it was taco tuesday!!!! The food was excellent. Had 4 pairs of fish, chicken, beef, & vegetarian tacos & everything was delicious. Personal favorite was the beef. The margaritas were excellent. The churros were bomb. Service was also top notch. Everyone's so friendly. Highly recommended.View more

30 minutes pour obtenir son entrée (guaccamole) + un autre 20 min pour les plats.
La terrasse est 0 entretenu, des toiles d'araignées de partout. La musique est extrêmement forte, ce qui rend l'expérience désagréable.
Les serveuses pas serviable & polie.View more

This was our favorite stop during our visit to the Old Port. The most delicious tacos ever!!! We had the platter & ever since we have not stopped talking about it. Highly recommend the chicken & fish tacos! The service was wonderful & the drinks were tasty. We went during'Taco Tuesday' which was busy, but the staff was still on top of their game. We are eager to return!View more

Guacamole & Pico De Gallo both were lacking acid (lime) & cilantro. The tortillas were saggy & floury.View more

First thing that i noticed was the high prices, especially for the drinks. It's a very tourist oriented place… I ordered simple tacos & waited for 45 minutes. The food was disappointing & I would not go again.View more

La nourriture est excellente & le personnel très gentil. Toutefois, c'est très long avant de recevoir les plats & les boissons.View more

Service was great, atmosphere as well. Just good vibes all over. Even after closing time we didn't feel pressured to leave & kept having great service. The food was very good, perfect portions & the drink we were suggested were excellent & fit exactly what we wanted. We even got an off menu drink that should definitely be on it: the guava margarita 👌 Good old port terrasse choice!View more

I'm not coming back just for one reason, the manager is not understandable at all. He doesn't know how to treat people. I'm Mexican & he tried to explain me what's a birria brothView more
