    We booked reservations for 7pm for 2 at a standard table for my GF’s birthday and we wanted the taco Tuesday because we had seen the tacos are supposed to be amazing and for $3 can’t complain. We ordered the queso as an appie and it was delicious and we would get again. Then we each ordered one of each of the following tacos chicken beef and pork. The pork was our least fave it had no seasonings it really needed salt. My gf’s fave was the beef because it had a green sauce that gave it some flavour but the meat again wasn’t seasoned. My favourite was the chicken but it was still lacking flavour. Also the corn tortillas kind of suck because they just fall apart, but I guess it’s good because they are Gluten free from those needing them. I don’t think we would come back here. We were thinking about getting the taco Tuesday margaritas for $6 but they seemed small anyways so we didn’t bother.

    The service was great, the food was pretty good, the salsa was blazé. The prices really disappointed me, a quesadilla for $30, no sides. Sad.

    10/10 place, we tried to walk-in on Taco Tuesday but it was (understandably) very busy. We made a reservation for the next day and couldn’t be happier. The tacos were all amazing, and so were the nachos (get the chicken tinga added)! Fave restaurant in Banff!
