Every time I've walked by this restaurant, it's busy and people seem to be enjoying themselves so I finally decided to stop by (May 2022). I can't believe it's taken so long to visit. The staff is incredibly friendly and I was introduced to multiple staff members. It seemed a bit chaotic to do this, but the bartenders are also servers, or perhaps they were short that day. Regardless, I was assured any member could assist me. I had one main server and when I let him know I was plant based, he assured me he'd pass the information along. I ordered the drink, Como La Flor, without the egg white foam. For food, I ordered Ruben's Vegan Sando with no spice. As I waited for the food, the server brought out a complimentary pretzel, sans butter. I thought that was thoughtful of him, considering I usually have to remind those small details especially in a meat-heavy restaurant. My drink was delicious! And the pretzel was a nice appetizer, though a bit too filling for me to have before a sandwich. Finally, the sandwich... wow! It was absolutely delicious. The oyster mushroom was fried to perfection. Every bite had a crunch. Because I didn't want it spicy, it was rubbed with salt and pepper, which was just fine with me. It was still flavorful. It's a large sandwich and I only got through half of it. Once home I popped that thing into the air fryer and it was just as good the next day. I definitely recommend this place. Perhaps make reservations on the weekend since they are quite busy. I know they have live music some days too, so the vibes are just awesome all around.

If you love ❤️ 🍖 🥩 🥩 they have galore choices of that . Tacos 🌮 burritos 🌯 sandwiches 🥪 all meaty cheesy . Don’t forget your cholesterol medications after . Service is on point . Although they sometimes take time to bring your items. Inside is little loud music + people chatting. Outside patio dining is good option. Parking structure adjacent free with validation. Overall had a good time with family.

Short version: THIS PLACE HAS FANTASTIC FOOD AND GREAT SERVICE. All caps. Slightly longer version: We were shown our table and anyone passing by kept checking in throughout our meal. From before we ordered our meal to the very end. Raul and Carlos made this place so welcoming for us. From explaining menu options to giving us a sample of some of the food :) They plan to open another one in Arcadia so I'm super stoked to go there when they do open!

All I can say is “WOW!” Amazing food. The brisket melts in your mouth. The Big MAC is insane! So good. All the meat is just delicious. We came with 7 people and everyone loved their food. You will never leave here hungry. We will return!
