Lots of errands in this suburb and wanted to try a new restaurant nearby. Since it was lent, I could not compare their al-pastor nor their carne asada as a benchmark to other similar cuisines. Instead, ordered their tuna tartare with guacamole and balsamic drizzle which was very good. They are correct that their ahi tuna was sushi grade. However, the tortilla chips was kind of bland and it was cold (much like the complimentary basket). Several other places I have been to serve them made to order, which I believe does not take much time and even so, worth the wait. Also ordered a shrimp taco with avacado crema on a corn tortilla. The shrimps were cooked very nice and all the toppings were flavorful. Overall, a fairly strong 4.2⭐️s. Will need to try their other menu items when not d

Wanted to give this place a try BUT I’am beyond disappointed with my experience & the taste of what they think is ..”Authentic Mexican Food”. My food did not taste like authentic mexican food, I have been eating & cooking mexican cuisine my whole life..the taste, sazón & love is not here. It’s overpriced for the amount of food I paid for & I paid $35.43 for 1 small Mole Enchilada dinner , 1 Steak taco & 1 jarrito guava drink. My rice was very dry with not much flavor, the beans were plain tasting not much seasoning. The mole sauce for the enchiladas tasted Watered down /Slightly salty for some reason ? The mole sauce tasted like low effort /quality Puebla style mole. :( The chicken inside the enchiladas was dry. The steak taco meat was heavily peppered bits of stringy meat. The Tortillas w

★★★☆☆ 3.0 True Service Report · Jan 2026

The food here is amazing — no question. I’ve been here twice now, and every dish we’ve had has been excellent. Clearly, whoever is cooking in the back knows exactly what they’re doing, and honestly, the chef deserves way more recognition than what’s happening out front. That said, the vibe is consistently off, and unfortunately it’s because of the staff. Both visits felt uncomfortable, like the people working there were irritated just to be there. This last time made it impossible to ignore. Our server repeatedly made us feel rushed and unwelcome. The moment that really crossed a line was when he brought our food out, stopped at the table, popped a Zyn in his mouth right in front of us, pulled the pouches out with his fingers under his lip, set our plates down, and walked away like nothi

First time trying and we are VERY impressed. Food came out very quickly and was super fresh. The service was amazing, especially our server Sandy! She made really good suggestions, I would recommend Birria egg rolls when you go here they are amazing! We will be coming back!

I am SUPER picky, and I will say a bite of mexicos quesabirria is top-notch!(I have tried their birria burrito & tacos now). Not only is it a go to date night spot, but I also planned a surprise birthday dinner here! They were super kind about the reservation and even let me bring a candle in! The staff here is absolutely fantastic! They are so on top of everything and make sure you're well taken care of. I will be back 100%. I would highly recommend trying this place out to anyone!
