Great food, especially loved the rice and beans. Steak was very flavorable. I will be coming back.
good service food alright prices are ridiculous paid over 20 per margarita wth the worst tequila spent over 150 on 4 margaritas that tasted like water dont recommended this place price are through...
the wait is unbelievable, 40 minutes for a couple of tacos. and sky-high prices
