breakfast 🌯 with chorizo is real good (and filling). house horchata had that rice flavor shine through, not the syrupy horchata you normally get

Food: I ordered the Fried Chicken Taco Bowl. With the exception that I wish the chicken wasn't as hot in temperature as I was hoping, but rather just warm, I thought the difference in textures and flavors in the bowl complimented each other really well. I was able to finish it in one sitting and wasn't over stuffed. I ordered the Chaco Taco as dessert: the horchata ice cream was the perfect compliment with dark chocolate and peanut-pretzel crumble coating. I'd easily order it again without hesitation. I additionally had the Lavender Lemonade 🍋 which was extremely sour which I don't mind personally, however it's lacking in much if any lavender 🪻 flavor. There's a bit of lavender buds on top as garnish but didn't pick up on it's flavor in the lemonade.
Friends ordered the following: the Rodrigo Al Pastor bowl was savory and filling. The vegan Truck Nachos were very filling and can be eaten as a meal if not shared as an appetizer.
Service: As for service in terms of waitresses, our waitresses popped in randomly here and there but not much attempt at interaction. Good recommendations and conversation from one of the bartenders downstairs at least.
Atmosphere: Definitely a restaurant to visit during the day, it's too dimly lit in the evening to enjoy the warm sunset pinks and oranges of the walls. They have a rooftop patio that I would be curious to visit during warmer weather.

I still love this place. The food was phenomenal. The drinks are really really good. To top it off... they have a happy hour.
Go here please... thank me later.
Oh, but parking is very scarce depending on when you go. This might be the reason you say no thank you, but if you make it inside... it's a wrap... you love it too.

The food here is so delicious! The vegan burrito and nachos are so filling. The chips and salsa are crazy big and worth the $5. I also had the guacamole on the past, and it is super tasty and flavorful. The decor of the restaurant is super cute. However, the service is just okay they are not super attentive, and it can be hard to grab someone's attention.

It's fine. Tastes fresh. Not much in the way of taste or texture for the meat.
Horchata it's not too sweet.

The Baja Fish tacos were good, for drinks are ordered the Jamaica Punch and the Baja Blackout they were pretty good too. My date enjoyed her food and drink as well. I like the set up of the rooftop, it had fans and tent like coverage to block the Sun.

The staff was super nice and the atmosphere is incredibly adorable! It was quite loud in there so just don’t expect a quiet dinner, I didn’t mind though! The food was okay, and in my personal opinion, expensive for tacos.

Came in for brunch on a warm Saturday around 1 pm, and was thoroughly impressed. I only heard of this place because of their Choco Taco, but the blue masa pancakes were really the star of the show. They were incredibly delicious, and the pineapple, and blueberry, compotes paired well with the caramel cream cheese sauce, and even my picky 6 year old enjoyed them. I had the fried chicken burrito which tasted like they used high quality ingredients, and that was delicious as well. The Choco Taco was OK. Anyone expecting something close to the childhood favorite will probably be disappointed, but I'll give them credit for keeping the spirit alive, and I enjoyed the "adult" twist they put on it. Sat on the patio, which was nice, but make sure you bring a hat if you're sensitive to the sun, as not every area of the patio is shaded. Also, while the horchata was some of the best I've had, I wish you got a bit more. Service was fast and attentive, the bathrooms were clean, and there is free street parking available in the area. Definitely a 10/10 experience, and this would be one of my first options going forward for patio dining.

Fun and fresh Mexican food and a beautiful patio! A great neighborhood spot with delicious food. We tried the green juice, fresh salsas, taco salad bowl, and burrito. Everything tasted super fresh!

This place is adorable! We stopped by for lunch and had margs, queso, salsa, nachos, guacamole, & empanadas. Let me tell you DO NOT PASS ON THE EMPANADAS. They were chefs kiss. The chips and salsa was also excellent. The place has a cool vibe, in a cute area.
