The food was amazing. Mark, our server, was so knowledgeable about the menu. Since this was our first visit, we asked him what he recommended, and everything he recommended was AMAZING! Will definitely be returning. Thank you, Mark, for making this a remarkable experience!!

Fantastic spot. Great service. Nice location and very clean. They accommodated our large group of 10. Food was fantastic, unique and great flavors. Meals were served hot. Portions were large. Everything I tried was delicious. Kitchen did a great job. Server was super pleasant and was a great help all through our dinner service. Super fast response from owner on an email sent a few days prior with a question. I would highly recommend and would visit again.

I absolutely adore it when people ask “is this your first time here?” Because YES! Yes it was and I love it when the restaurant makes you feel comfortable. My waitress, I wish I remembered her name, but she was such a sweet heart she told us about the menu items and gave recommendations. The food was so yummy and the to-go boxes were cute. The decorations were nice as well. This place also has brunch items and is a good place to bring family and friends.

Came for lunch with my family and the service and atmosphere were great. Our server Leah was very inviting as well. This restaurant has a modern twist on Mexican food. We had a lot of entrees, but I had the carnitas tacos which were okay, but the pineapple was throwing me off some. Overall, it was a great restaurant.

The food was so good. We had the Cabo rolls for an appetizer, which we had fresh out the fryer and were so cheesy and flavorful. For entrees, I had the surf and turf burrito. It was huge and had really good combinations of creamy, chewy, savory, and fresh. I loved every bite. My husband had the carne asada tacos. They do not skim on the filling for those tacos. He said they were very delicious but it needed a side or a fourth taco to fill him up (he is a stocky guy). Our server was awesome. She was so friendly and attentive to our needs and questions. We loved it all and will definitely be back.

Overall Rating (1-10): 4.8 The interior of the restaurant provided a unique and welcoming ambiance. The food quality was above average, but the service did not elevate the dining experience to be exceptional. Atmosphere (1-10): 8.2 The restaurant's interior was beautifully adorned with plenty of plants and intricately detailed walls that cleverly divided the large space into smaller, intimate sections. The music selection was family-friendly and complemented the atmosphere well. Service (1-10): 3.3 The server was very courteous and attentive, recognizing the needs of a child with a cup with a lid. However, the initial wait of around five minutes before being greeted was noticeable. Although water was served promptly during the introduction, the delay meant skipping appetizers in favor of ordering entrees directly. Short Rib / Mahi Mahi Street Taco (1-10): 6.3 These street tacos were above average, boasting noticeable quality and an appealing presentation. However, for $17, the portion didn't meet expectations for value without any accompanying sides. Kids Quesadilla (1-10): 6.9 The quesadilla was very tasty and cooked to perfection, matching what one would hope for in such a dish. The fries were also impressive, rivalling those from specialized American restaurants. Cleanliness (1-10): 8.5 The restaurant, especially the bathrooms, was exceptionally clean and well-maintained, which was a pleasant surprise. Value (1-10): 4.9 The total bill for three came to $44 before tip, which felt very reasonable for the quality of food received but the portions were not enough to properly classify as entrees. If sides were ordered, it would of cost of $20 dollars for street taco entree. Also, on the Queso dip pricing, adding 1$ for jalapeños seems petty.

Went a little later on a Saturday night and lucked up and had no wait. It was a cooler night but we opted for the patio. The atmosphere was nice and good was pretty good. Love Love LOVE the queso. It’s different with a smoky flavor that’s like none other. I opted for the key lime Mahi which is my favorite from here. It’s so flavorful with a subtle kick and sweetness to it. The fish was actually a little tough this time which I had never experienced before. But overall still pretty good. Hubs opted for the cheesy enchiladas without meat and they were tasty. Good food. Good vibe.

Everything was exceptionally delicious! The short ribs tacos were tender, and seasoned perfectly. The Cabo chicken was moist and Smokey. The calamari was flash fried, not rubbery, and beautiful. Tres Leches was huge and flavored so well. The drinks mixed perfectly, no strong alcohol taste, but tasted as described. Definitely check this place out! Won't be disappointed. Our server was phenomenal, attentive and fun and personable!

Absolutely loved this place, first time visiting and will not be the last time. Our server Mark who is in training did a fantastic job recommendating drinks and food and Paul his trainer was phenomenal as well. I had the Blood Orange Margarita with sugar rim. We had the queso dip and the chips were very well seasoned. My daughter ordered had the Cabo burger which had brisket and patty. I had the Nachos with the Chicken. The best Mexican restaurant I have ever tried.
