    Really awesome mexican food. The price is good too, with various today's specials. I also tryied their sangria with blue berries on top, and it's the best one I've drunk.

    The Frozen Sangria has us coming back time and time again. $5.50 gets you a glass full of dark-red slush that's simultaneously tart and sweet, and dotted with very-chewable frozen blueberries. Read more

    It's a cute casual little spot for like 4 friends max. Great salsa, and whatever Manhattan version of "authentic" Mexican is. That's not a dig, the food is actually great.

    Almost everything comes in a massive portion, and the salsa with the free chips is amazing and fresh. Frozen sangria is a bit pricey but worth trying at least once and will last you the whole meal.

    Great place for vegan Mexican food. My go to is the Dylan in Durango, which is a garlicky kale and butternut squash burrito. Nachos with vegetarian chorizo are also great.

    Everithing is amazing! From the free starter chips to the meal itself. Mix the meat in the tacos so there are no plain ones... and the sangría is just wow!

    Love the free chips and salsa you help yourself to, the delicious vegan and vegetarian options like the BBQ tempeh and the frozen margaritas and sangria! 🍹

    Delicious free chips. Also great vegan and veggie options. I love that you can get any burrito in a bowl. Makes it super healthy. I enjoyed my dinner with no regrets :)

    Frozen sangria! Or if you're feeling spicy, get a pitcher of El Tigre - a mix of the frozen sangria and the frozen wine margarita

    I love their steak tacos! The steak is slightly sweet with great spices. One of my favorite taco places!

    Order a horchata (or sangria if you're in the mood) and the chilaquiles w/ a fried egg. Your hangover will cower in fear.

    Loved the huevos rancheros and served all day!!! Hot sauce was homemade and tasted like Pappasitos in houston!! Yummm

    Great views from the penthouse suite! The PETA protestors can get a little loud outside, though, because of all the beds are giant turtle shells you climb inside like a tent.

    Frozen Sangria is great. The Pork is always very dry. The chips are always very stale. Sometimes order items are forgotten. Sometimes they add 10$ tips onto your orders after you leave.

    Visually, my quesadilla delivery was what I can only describe as a saucy, soggy, sad mess. That's a lot of s's. Taste-wise, sufficient.
