The Tacos were killer. Lots of great flavors and a bunch of menu options. The place was packed, long line but fairly fast seating. The only issue was the service. Servers were on overload and it took over 40 minutes to get our two orders of tacos. The seating was hard steel, super uncomfortable but effective so you don't stay long. Very noisy. Good food, but with all the other factors, probably would not return with so many other choices.

I’m never disappointed by the flavor this place delivers. I had the Short Rib Wet Burrito. I loved the texture of the short rib meat. Also, the spiciness of the hot sauce was well balanced giving flavor and spice. The breakfast burrito was delicious too. Great flavor and well seasoned. However, presentation could use more work. There was only one big issue. I got my food in only a few minutes. Whereas my friend got theirs 20 minutes later. Why serve one dish only to have the next person wait on it for 20 minutes? The issue here is timing. Keep track of what’s being sent out at what time. There must be a system, otherwise no one will know who’s been served and who’s starving.

Its a 50/50 for our group of 5. Some like the food and others didn’t. I got the quesabirria tacos. Those were really good. I got the pomegranate margarita which was really good. The atmosphere and the building is nice.

This place is awesome! The food is delicious, the ambiance is amazing, and the staff are nice. The only thing is that you do have to make a reservation or wait outside for an hour to get a table. There's plenty of things to do outside while you wait though. The parking straight up sucks but come on, this place is in Little Italy, what do you expect? Highly recommend coming here is you want to have a good time with friends.

Questions & Answers

Is this kid friendly?? Or no kids allowed?

I'd feel comfortable bringing my kids there for brunch or lunch, but later in the evening I'd find another place. Not that kids aren't welcome, but being a downtown bar type atmosphere, it can get a little "loud".

Can you get veggie tacos off happy hour menu in romaine lettuce instead or the corn tortilla??

Sure you can. Whats cheaper than a tortilla? Lettus make a wider profit margin and exchange your tortilla for some lettus. Double entranda. Dueces!

Yes, it's kid friendly! Took my 3 young kids. They have a secret kids menu. It's loud in there, so if the kids get a little loud it makes no difference. They had a good time.
