Customer Reviews
I really enjoyed the space. The decorations were vibrant and colorful, the staff was very helpful and accommodating. I fell in love with the Horchata!! The birria was ok. I Think I should’ve tried different protein so I can give an adequate review. For the most part, I enjoyed my visit.
Was very excited to try out the place with my family. First arrived and there wasn’t a line, we placed our order to go and as we were waiting a long line did appear. I thought that we got lucky we ordered our food before a rush. But we ended up as the last people to receive our food after the rush. My partner noticed it was just left on the table while other orders were being ran out to people who got to the restaurant after us. The restaurant it self was very well decorated, but when we arrived there were dirty tables, the salsa bar was a mess, and the employees were very flustered. We can see employees frantically looking for customers to deliver their food and overhearing them aggressively telling dinning in customers to pay attention to their order number being called, when a table ma
Came across this place on tik tok Food is amazing as it seems fresh hot and Delicious rice and very soft and fresh and full of flavor. Definitely recommend this place. Tables a salsa bar are clean and employees work fast an efficient huge line out the door and orders are going out fast and smooth. I love the salsa bar how organised and neat it is the food is amazing.
HONEST REVIEW A lot of the reviews here should be taken with a grain of salt since customers are incentivized with 20% off for leaving one, which makes many of them unreliable. I got the steak burrito. I ate about half and threw the rest away. The steak was overly greasy/salty like it had been sitting in oil/grease all day to stay warm. There was no sear and no tenderness at all. The salsa was also very watered down. They advertise a “self-serve salsa bar,” but it looks neglected throughout the day and was honestly unappetizing. The rice and beans were cold and bland. No flavor, and it didn’t seem like any butter or seasoning was used. We ordered the horchata and it was very disappointing—extremely watered down and almost artificial tasting. They do a good job with social media and that
i never leave bad reviews, but if i could give this a zero star i would. to start off, walking in the place was dirty stuff all on the floor. second waited for my food over an hour. i said okay maybe the wait means it’ll be good. food was TERRIBLE. such of a disrespect to the mexican culture!!! no flavor, worst birria tacos. I could taste nothing but onions. I also got a bowl. The bowl was terrible. the rice extremely hard dry bad!! the worst $44 spent! overly hyped! also tasted nothing but onions couldn’t even taste the birria meat. The birria meat is very dry. They give you very little. i’m no one to leave bad reviews, but this restaurant is such a disappointment to the Mexican culture! they tell you to leave a 5 star review for 20% off which is one there’s so many five star reviews! i w
