    One and only spot on Bourbon and best in the Quarter for great Mexican food. Come for 2 dollar Tuesdays and our daily 2 for 1 happy hour. 3 for1 on weekends. Over 150 tequila selections.

    Incredible service!!!! Ask for Michael who calls himself the big bald dude and try the nachos - seriously the BEST nachos! Mesquite chicken and beef! So great! Ask him about the tequila options!

    Brooke is an awesome bartender. Too bad this place is on Bourbon, otherwise it'd be my immediate go-to bar. Tequila selection is, of course, amazing.

    An amazing or overwhelming list of tequila, depending on your perspective. There's 100+ on the list but no prices, so make sure you ask.

    They carry Ciroc coconut vodka. My favorite. But prices seem to change like the weather. And any question to the bill threw the server to be a total DB

    Try the chicken fajita salad. So good! Friendly staff and good atmosphere plus 2 for 1 margaritas during college football.

    Our bartender was very knowledgeable of the many, many tequilas available. Good place to hang for a while.

    Has an outdoor garden at the back - just ask the waitress to turn down the volume of the huge speaker at back.

    Decent, yet I've had better quesadillas. They were okay but nothing exceptional and not too much to eat, honestly. Staff: add more vegetables, it's not that expensive! Also, very slow service...

    The back courtyard is a quiet reprieve from Bourbon Street. Service is rather slow; be very specific about your requests as soon as you arrive.

    Don't go here... Staff is rude. Party of ten... Kicked out because we brought the last few sips of our drink from another bar. We were planning to eat and drink and SPEND MONEY. Screw them
