A new hideaway on the way to Austin! Had a great time and enjoyed the open-air ambience. We dined standard seating inside but the doors were open which hosted patio diners. I ordered the Carne Asada plate that was delicious and complemented by warm homemade corn tortillas and delicious nopalitos!

We made a reservation for a 11 people and the process was so easy. Drinks and food were delicious and plenty of parking. It was loud but the place was busy so to be expected. Outside seating available. Nice place to gather.
