Lotfi Aridhi: Nice music, a little loud but the ambience is nice. Nice food too
Jordan Revae: If you're super hungry don't get the street tacos... if you want to shout through your whole meal, this is the spot.. the music is loud so everyone talks LOUDER! Slightly disappointed & underwhelmed.
Stacy Smith: Had the grilled cheese and tomato bisque which was delicious. Restaurant is super loud though, to the point it can be rather distracting. My son didn't like the kids spaghetti, said it tasted funny.

Robert Horvick: Great place for a drink with some friends or on a date. Friendly, excellent bartenders and a nice patio area. Only complaint is that sometimes the music is inexplicably loud.
Melinda Jackson: Great staff. Vast liquor selection. Local beers on tap.
Richard Bacchus: Unattended Children will receive free candy, cigarettes and a puppy
Erin Gannon: Best Mexican food I've found in Raleigh! Great margaritas and the carne tacos topped with a slice of avocado were delicioso. Funky decor and loud music made for a fun Friday night ~ we'll be back!
Tracy Lowe: Very crowded so go early or late. Everything very good! You cannot go wrong and they have the best top shelf margaritas.
The News & Observer: The menu doesn’t describe the Mero-Mexican taco but advises, “dare you to try it!!!” Those who dare will discover that it’s lengua (beef tongue) – and that it’s very good indeed. Read more.
