    Beef Fajita Tacos
    Candace W.

    Came here recently with a friend and had an okay experience. On the bright side, our server was very kind and funny and we also received our food very quickly. Also, the restaurant has a bright, fun look inside. However, the food was meh. I got a taco salad which was fine. The meat could've been seasoned more and I would've like more guacamole on the bowl. I didn't like the queso. My friend got beef fajita tacos and there wasn't much meat in the tacos. Portion sizes were pretty decent though. Prices are a little steep for the food you get in my opinion. Overall: would prefer to try a different Mexican restaurant in the area that's more affordable or with better food than return, but service was great and obviously so is location.

    The service was perfect, the environment was vibrant and calm, and the food tasted great. We ordered crispy taco and burrito. Size of each meal was large and it was enough for 3. I loved the burrito even though I am a fan of tacos

    Great food! We were able to walk from our hotel. We ate on the patio since we had our dog. Yes dog friendly. Several employees walked out to say hey to the dog. The patio is great if you like to people watch. Our server was very polite and friendly. The food came out quickly. Love all the sauces.

    Service here was so great. Ray took amazing care of us and wanted to make sure we had the best experience possible. The food was good. Portions could have been a little larger but maybe that's my bias from other Mexican restaurants I frequent. Chips were great as was the margarita. Ambiance and vibe were eclectic and fun. Definitely worth a stop in.

    veggie enchiladas no cheese
    Delanie M.

    chuys was right next to our hotel so it was a convenient stop. i know i can always find a vegan option at a mexican style restaurant. I ordered the veggie enchiladas without cheese. the beans and rice were pretty dry and the enchiladas were just okay. the chips and salsa were good and the service was good as well but there are much better food options in the area.

    I dont know what Elvis Presley has to do with Mexican food, but it was actually very good. The ground beef enchilada was amazing. Beans were very solid too. Service was very hospitable and friendly. Southern charm for sure. We were in and out due to time.

    Chuychanga

    Chuy's is always a great time for quick food and good prices. I think one of their best parts is the free chips and salsa and the creamy jalapeño dip that they offer as starters. I got the Chuychanga with chicken as the filling and it was decent with rice and beans. I chose the chika chika boom boom sauce which was a spicy kick. Nicely fried and it was meaty. For drinks, I got the blackberry frozen margarita and the strawberry margarita on the rocks. Good prices, but way too sweet. For large parties, you can't make reservations or call ahead even if you're 10 mins away. However, they did seat us pretty quickly.

    From a locals perspective - the host and waitress were both rude and mean to our entire group.

My fiancee and dad got the birria tacos they did a pretty good job. I got the skirt steak i believe and it was ok. Tender but not too flavorful. Tasted more just like beef. I believe its marinated but i didnt really get hints of any spices. Again, I'm not saying it was terrible by any means. Just left something to be desired. We also ordered the wueso flameado and that was pretty good. Overall a good place to eat. Would recommend checking it out.

The setup inside is adorable and had a cozy, relaxed vibe from the moment we walked in. Our server, Tom, was absolutely wonderful. He even asked if we had any allergies when ordering, which we really appreciated even though we didn't have any. It honestly showed how much they care about their customers. I don't think I've ever had a restaurant ask that before! He was also super attentive and kept our waters refilled so quickly throughout the meal. One thing we really liked was the atmosphere. We loved all the fun live music spots around Nashville too, but this was a nice change of pace if you're looking for more of a chill, relaxed vibe where you can easily enjoy conversation during dinner. We both ordered the asada tacos and they were SO delicious, exactly what we needed. The rice on the side tasted incredibly fresh too, and the tomato and corn mixed into it were the perfect addition. You could tell everything was made with care. The staff was constantly cleaning tables quickly after guests left, and overall the service was just amazing from start to finish. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be coming back next time we're in Nashville!

Asada Tacos: Honestly, pretty bland. The meat was cooked well but it lacked any real flavor. Salmon: Nothing special. Didn't feel like high-grade fish. Pork Belly Tacos (The GOAT): Absolute life-changing Pork Belly. As someone who's eaten a lot of pork belly, this was easily the best I've ever had. I'd come back just for this. The Portion: Tacos come with rice and beans so the portions are very generous. You won't leave hungry. 4/5 stars. The only reason for the 4-star rating is that incredible Pork Belly. It carried the whole meal. Highly recommend for that dish alone!

This was my second visit, as we frequent Nashville and surrounding areas. We made reservations near the stage, but that didn't matter because the manager/hostess will put you wherever there is an open spot. There were more than ten people at a round top that would normally seat 6-7. This makes it difficult for the wait staff to maneuver, forcing trays to pop above head level. I kept having to move out of the way, as I was on the end of what I'd refer to as a trough table...you know that long table beside the bar where they put people who don't have reservations...oh wait, we did have them. Didn't matter! But if you make it to a table and decide to partake in the all you can eat, two hour time limit, SET THAT TIMER! I CANNOT BELIEVE it has a 4.9 on Google!!! The food is really heat/serve tasting at best; although it really looks beautiful. I swear the Mahi Taco looked incredible and was almost totally tasteless, not to mention it was on the colder side after being tough from being overcooked. Does make me wonder how long it was sitting after being cooked. It was definitely not cooked to order, as it was literally just a few minutes after ordering that it arrived to the table. We went during Saturday brunch, as there is live music during this slot. The $35 per person/plus 20% gratuity that is added/plus sales tax brought the total for two to right at $90. There was no alcohol consumed, although they do have $25 bottomless mimosa/vodka bar. That is likely the draw of this establishment because it's definitely not the food. The only positive I can mention is the wait staff. They are like worker bees, constantly moving to earn that 20% gratuity...maybe add to that the fact it can accommodate parties (see website) but DEFINITELY the waitstaff works hard. The parking lots on either side are paid spots but I couldn't risk the car getting blocked it, banged up from lack of markings or the gravel incline. There is heavy construction in the area, so expect to pay $20 or more to insure your car isn't in jeopardy. A parking app actually gave the parking lot a 3 due to safety concerns and inability to park in the lot. Basically people park anywhere because it isn't marked at all. And last but definitely not least, those all you can consume spots are terribly loud. I'd blame my gut grenade stomach ache on the noise because I only fully ate one small vegan taco and the tiny mahi strip out of another. Live music or not, I'll pass and find something better.
