Faustino HuertaJuly 13, 2020You have to eat and drink a margarita called Cabo wabo or the bake pineapple margarita. If you like MICHILADAS they are also really good. Love the food and you have to try it,the food is amazing.
Max MossApril 16, 2016Skirt steak & shrimp is great. Good guac. Loud music. 19 minutes into the singer's loud rendition of La Bamba I entered an artificially induced out of body experience that was 12 kinds of terrifying.
Guillermo BxAugust 30, 2014Tacos de lomo! all food comes with side of rice, jalapeños, guacamole and frijoles refritos.
Aileen Wilson-YoungMay 1, 2013The carrots in the little bowl are fabulous! Don't pass up eating them!- Mick RocheNovember 24, 2011The tacos were amazing, especially the al pastor! Also, try the salsa verde, it was fantastic.
If you like fish. Try their Mexican Salmon, so delicious!
- Shannon SJuly 1, 2015Poor service. Sour Guac. Burnt burrito suizos. Bean bowls were a cute idea, but tasted stale. Beer was out of code. Not worth the inflated prices.
🖤 RACHEL 🖤August 22, 2013Expensive... $35 for 3 tacos, burrito, fries and 2 pops to go. Not very authentic it's like chain Mexican. Won't be going back.

"Beef chimichanga, with refried beans rice. The pico de gallo was good and not too hot. It would have been better if the tortilla chips were hot."
