Wow. Amazing place! Try the Burnt Ends Chili in a Burrito Bullet or anything. The smoked brisket was also great! It’s incredibly affordable compared to the rest of the places in the neighborhood.

Cute and fun Mexican Restaurant with delicious food and great wait staff. The poblano mac and cheese was amazing! Great happy hour as well. Try the margaritas!

The burritos are amazing! Try the Smoky Carnitas and Jamburrito! Great size burritos to fill you up. Great atmosphere. Good music. Small seating arrangements but worth it.

Delicious tacos. The brisket taco is a must. Also their spicy margarita is top notch. Excellent cocktails and very friendly and hard working bartender.

Tasty, not-quite-traditional Mexican dishes in a casual atmosphere. Sesame-topped guacamole was delicious, and the “Mexican jambalaya” was odd an odd mix of flavors but nonetheless very good.

Tired of typical turists places and long cues, we found this place by fortuity. We enjoyed a lot!! We Recommend the Nachos! Once of the best we never tried!

The cornbread is very legit. Get the burnt end brisket burrito, worth it. The Arnold Palmero is tops. Wish I had know about this place sooner.

Radish slices with the guacamole! Sliders! Tacos! House margarita! All so good. The happy prices can’t be beat, either.

Spicy margarita is solid; definitely a great spot for drinks or food. Don't let the dine-tables fool you, you can order to-go.
Matthew CaldecuttApril 11, 2015
Their Mexican Street Corn is fantastic and they really need to bring the brisket tacos back (They can still make them if you ask.)

First time visit, went for lunch during work hours. It was pretty crowded but I ordered to go, which was no more than a few minutes. Got the kale & brussell spirit salad. Good, but a little small

Their combo dishes are great, especially with the mac & cheese side. Not a fan of their bland guacamole or the unusual "buns," which are just sandwiches made with very thick pieces of cornbread.

Get the guac and chips. Burritos are not bad, neither. Space is really too tight. There are communal tables, too. Watch your belongings carefully!

Fantastic mezcal specialty drinks, great selection of mezcal and tequila, friendly attentive servers.
Kimmie OhhJuly 17, 2020
Get cornbread, brisket taco, tuna ceviche tostada & seasonal guacamole.

If you like it spicy the Mexican jambalaya is on point!!!!!

Delicious food and a really good list of beer, tequila. Highly recommend.

Kale quinoa bowl is perfection. Who the hell knew kale could be soooo good??
Jonathan GiermanAugust 31, 2014
The vegetarian plate is a lot better than it sounds. It has a lot of flavor - kind of like a soul food / Mexican hybrid.
Willem OckhuysenAugust 20, 2014
Cool new spot in the area. The burnt ends brisket burrito is amazing!
Drew SanockiAugust 6, 2015
The salads were awesome but they just jacked up the price to a crazy $19 -- insane for midtown. That's to-go btw.
Collette SMay 2, 2016
Every time I come I get the chicken burrito, ask for sour cream on the side!
AaronOctober 4, 2014
Great barbecue burritos - the mushroom and Brussel sprout is the best!

Ask for brisket tacos. It isn't on the menu! You can mix & match them.
Chris AngelinaFebruary 9, 2015
Mexicue with table service. Small bat looks to have an excellent Bourbon selection.
Angelina ZeppieriMay 8, 2015

Christopher VargasMarch 25, 2019
Shrimp Taco & Lobster Taco are amazing
Gray BeltranFebruary 3, 2016
The tortilla soup is more like a spicy black bean soup with sausage FYI
Guillaume FlandreNovember 1, 2014
Service is great. Burritos are fine too.
