I love everything here! Great variety. It's not your typical cheap American/Mexican food. They serve a verde salsa that I love. My favorite item on the menu is the Chile Relleno. Their margaritas too!

lunch is an amazing value - the burritos might be a dollar more than chipotle, but they are just the right size, full of flavor, and come with free chips and salsa (which has the perfect kick to it)

1) if you're looking for authentic Mexican, don't eat here 2) the menu has about 7 dishes to choose from, so kiss freedom of choice goodbye 3) you shouldn't need reservations for a Mexican place

Gluten free dining options are abundant. The staff are careful and knowledgeable. They also have an impressive beer menu.

The Hot Guava Margarita is the best margarita I've ever had, and the chile relleno is a fantastic vegetarian option.

Guacamole is insanely yummy. Make sure to tell them to get a damn blender so they can serve frozen margaritas. ;)

Love their passionfruit caipirinha - great version of one of my fav drinks.

Get one of their higher end tequilas straight, with a side of the spicy tomato juice. May sound weird, but it is smooth and delicious. Wonderful combo.

The chips and salsa are amazing... For something that's free, you can't get better than this!

Great beer list and rotating drafts. Beer nerds, be sure to ask for extended beer list.

The Perra Alex is a great drink - excellent and unique combination of flavors.

Great food... BUT if you're like me and hate cilantro, be sure and tell them to "hold it". They spread that vile weed over EVERYTHING!!!!

Go after 10pm on weeknights for cheap (but still delicious) tacos! Try the nopales asados (grilled cactus).

Don't forget this place for brunch. Had carnitas and a Green Mary in their outdoor seating.
Michael BlockJuly 6, 2015
The carnitas are awesome!

Food was good. Maybe the server (Ben) had a bad day but he sucked. I may be willing to give this spot one more try.

Literally best glass of water I've ever had

Tamales are incredible. Pork and hominy stew is best value. Dogfishhead Raison d'être on tap.

The Restaurant Week Menu here is entirely vegetarian. It's also only $20 for dinner.

Don't plan on coming without a reservation.

Best margarita ever. Hands down.
Sarah V.November 22, 2010
Have the Hot Guava - spicy, smoky, slightly sweet. Yum :)
Ken LeeJuly 19, 2014
Not your grandma's Mexican food, much better!

Arrogant Bastard! The beer I mean!

Try the Hot Guava Margarita! The food is great too. Read more

The food isn't seasoned that great. It's all bland. 😕 The pernil only had a tiny distinct taste of cloves(no-no), it was costly, veggies were mushy, lights too dim, and pretty sure the vegan is not
Devin González-McKernieApril 6, 2013
Horrible service, no one helped us. Just stared and made us wait
