    This is a hidden gem in the Riverwalk area. Unique decor and authentic Mexican tacos. Friendly service and excellent value for the money.

    Felt crammed into an attic. It wasn’t busy and yet service was slow and forgetful. Food was average and did not equate to the price for a “Valentines Special”.

    Although the weather was cold and we reserved the balcony seating, we were provided blankets. The waitress, Delilah, was very cordial and friendly. The food, wine, drinks, and Valentine’s Day ambience was wonderful. The Rose and heart candle made it that much more romantic! Thank you!

    The ambience was great. They had a dj playing great Latin music. We ordered the empanadas, esquite and carne asada tacos and all were delicious. Service was also friendly. The only negative were the drinks. They were flavorless. Overall I would return.

    The food was great and we had a wonderful server! Unfortunately the competing bands (at casa Catrina and next door) made it difficult to have conversations.

    Food good, service awful, location good. Math lines up to not worth it, if the food is good but there are no waiters and they can't get you drinks or food properly, what's the point.
