Food was delicious, we tried 6 different tacos between us and left nothing. The only negative was that one that didn’t sound spicy at all on the menu came out pretty hot, so if you aren’t into a lot of spice check with your server before ordering. Cocktails are all tequila/mescal based so not a lot of drink options if you aren’t a fan, but if you are you’re in the right place!
