Great food and drinks with a fun atmosphere.
Highly recommend the 7 salsas as an app and the spicy cucumber marg as drink. Even if you don’t like spicy cocktails, the spice is only in the rimmed salt so you can make it as spicy as you want.
Pretty small menu mostly tacos but we enjoyed the fish and shrimp tacos. Tacos are decently sized.
I’d probably give this place a 3.5 stars if I could. I dig the concept - high quality tacos in a great atmosphere - and everything I had was reasonably executed. I just guess at this price point I was expecting more in terms of creativity in their tacos. It’s a fairly short list and pretty standard - skirt steak, fish, shrimp and the like. But I couldn’t escape the feeling that what I was really paying for was the atmosphere, and the tacos, while decent, were ones I could find as good if not better for half the price elsewhere in the city. It’s a shame because they do seem to have it in them - both my starter of the seven salsas and finish of a banana tamal were excellent and what I’d expect of a restaurant at this level. It’s just the tacos at this taqueria that fell short.
2 of us shared, in order of liking from most to least, the special tacos (with wrapped bacon), shrimp tacos, and lamb tacos. The special tacos were uniquely interesting, shrimp tacos good, and for the lamb tacos I wasn't a fan of the salsa boracha.
Overall, the food was all good, though it's pricey for tacos.
I stumbled into this Mexican restaurant by complete accident & was lucky enough to find a table at the right time. The staff very friendly & attentive. The interior was available but the outdoor dinning was very inviting & also available. Service was great, drinks were delicious & food definitely outstanding! The carnitas were a little salty but delicious to say the least. I do have to admit, it was a little pricy but can't denied that it was money well spent. Can't wait to go back.
Delicious and upscale Mexican food - there are a ton of tacos to try. The tempura fish tacos and the sea bass tacos are especially delicious. Everything has terrific flavors - try a couple of the salsas with the guacamole as well.
They have interesting ingredients that they use (pork belly, brussels, mushrooms) and everything is fresh and bright.
Went on a Saturday night and it was packed. Server was funny, prompt and making helpful recommendations. Drinks were quick and well made. Food was amazing, fresh and good portion size. Would go back just for the shrimp (see picture) and Guac.

Went here on a company outing and the service and the food was very good. Can't beat the location...many choices after eating for after dinner drinks. Recommend this place for a casual but not fast food type of casual. Drinks were excellent. Oxtail tacos were delicious
I loved this place, great ambiance and really wonderful service. Only fault is that the menu would be better with a few additional choices, it's pretty limited. I don't usually order tacos but went for steak and they were tasty. Only two though so not sizeable if you're hungry.
Great service can't go wrong with the staff treated us Great
This place is awesome. Beautiful environment, spacious, AMAZING FOOD and friendly staff. I would recommend lamb and special tacos. The cucumber margarita is refreshing.
