★★★★★ 5.0 Nikita Rain · Apr 2025

The black bean nachos were incredible. I haven’t had nachos this good in probably 10 years. I got the Carnitas which was crispy sweet and spicy deliciousness. The House Margarita was delicious. Perfectly sweet.

★★★★★ 5.0 Dan J · Jul 2024

Stopped by on a Tuesday night around 6.30 and the place was packed. Came back the following day around 5 or so and got a seat at the bar. Within 45 minutes the place was full. The tropical brisket was on the menu and it was really good. The brisket was seasoned well and was tender. The whole plate was seasoned well and very good. If you try their dangerous sauce, it is quite hot. Great service behind the bar too.

★★★★★ 5.0 Kimberly Miller · Jan 2026

Delicious food and perfect margaritas. Place is small, so be prepared to wait for a table. Food is served at the bar so if you see a seat there, grab it. Red hot and blue nachos are where it's at.

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Stewart · Dec 2025

Never got a table after standing in the doorway for 30 minutes. Bonus points went to the guy who arrived later and got seated ahead of me because he knew the staff. If skipping the line via personal connections is your thing, you’ll love it. If you’d rather not linger on your feet while being overlooked, Charlottesville has far better places to drink.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Cole Bruen · Dec 2025

Sante Fe Enchilda was basically a trip to heart attack grill as it was effectively a plate of cheese and sauce minus the chicken and minus the enchilada. Red hot blues had excessive amount of spice on it to the point you couldnt taste anything else. Very loud tacky pop music that did not fit the vibe of a nice-ish restaurant.
