    Low-carb Chimichanga Light

    Came for a late lunch while in the area. Seated immediately and served within 10-15 min. Food was tasty, salsa has a slight "kick" of heat and fresh. Overall service great, food tasty, reasonable in price and ambience solid. Will try again when in area.

    Always the best food & service!!! They always get us seated so quickly and the food comes out so fast!

    Low Carb Burrito Bueno add cheese dip

    We ordered take out today for lunch. I ordered the low carb burrito bueno and subbed the burrito sauce for cheese dip. I was told there would be an upcharge for cheese dip. I was shocked to see that the upcharge was $2.69 for less than 1 tablespoon of cheese dip. If the upcharge is going to cost that much, there definitely should have been more cheese - extremely disappointed in the cost for this. The burrito itself was good other than it was very dry, no sauce or cheese in the burrito.

    Street tacos

    Friday night therapy - a.k.a happy hour - with the gals. BOGO margaritas were good with the chips & salsa. Asked for the spicy salsa, but it didn't have much flavor so that was disappointing. The street tacos (3) were pretty good - the asada and El pastor were really good; the carnitas were dry unfortunately. Some hits and misses but overall, pretty good (more like 3.5 stars)

    Hot wings are straight FIRE
    Karen L.

    Stumbled upon this spot after a trip to the nearby grocery store. It was packed on a weekday evening so thought that seems like a good sign. My husband saw someone eating wings and had a sudden craving so we started there. Y'all... these wings were straight FIRE! We got them hot and they were perfectly crunchy, drenched in delicious hot sauce. Never have I had better wings at a Mexican restaurant. Highly recommend! For my meal I had a combo with a chicken enchilada and a beef soft taco. I liked the beef better than the chicken, but both were good. My husband had the chicken nachos and they were also delicious. This is our new spot for sure!

    Chicken Chimichanga Very good!
    Eli J.

    Tried this place for takeout for the first time. Online ordering easy and food was promptly ready. Really nothing to complain about. I had the chicken chimichangas. Great flavor, good portion size at a reasonable price. Would definitely recommend that dish to anyone looking for something good. They have a fairly large menu worth exploring, I'm sure they have a lot of other good things as well. Would not hesitate to give this place a shot if your looking for some good quick Mexican food.

    Best Mexican food in Chattanooga. I will definitely be back. The quesadilla and spinach dip were both top notch.

It's very modern with vibrant decor and good music playing. There's a large Bar in the middle of the restaurant with TV's and booths and tables all around. No outdoor dining that I can remember, but I could be mistaken. We've had several dishes, but my go to is the Spicy Burrito with Tinga or grilled chicken. You won't find a spicier burrito with flavor anywhere in town. If you like melted cheese, almost every dish is swimming in it. According to my wife the Margaritas are on point! I prefer a cold beer. The service is good. We're always greeted and have good conversation with the servers and bar tenders when we dine in VS take out. They have a big party for Cinco de Mayo every year. Highly recommend.

We had our two young girls and they were very understanding and accommodating (high chair and coloring sheets). The menu is interesting but to be honest, we enjoyed almost none of our items. The cocktails were very meh. Not awful but not great. The food is really where this place lacks in my opinion. No one was a fan of almost any dish we got. The puffy tacos with redfish were likely the worst. Under seasoned and close to being gross. The catfish dish was so so. The fish itself was good but the grits were hard and the green tomatoes were so sour that they overpowered everything else. The ribs tried but I'd suggest going to a legit BBQ joint for real meats like this. The potatoes were greasy and mostly bland. I'd rank this our least favorite meal in the city. Interestingly enough. We were just at a Michelin star restaurant less than a week before and had the complete opposite experience.

The bathrooms are always clean, which I appreciate. Paid street parking is usually easy to find, though during busy hours it can take a little more time. The veggie fajitas are an absolute treat and full of flavor. The guacamole is fresh and perfectly seasoned, and the salsa is truly top notch. One of the most delightful surprises is that the churros are vegan, and they are unforgettable. The Papillón dish is especially meaningful. It can be made vegan and comes from the owner's grandmother's recipe in Guatemala. That personal touch really shines through and makes the menu feel inspired and unique. There used to be a young blonde male bartender who was hands down one of the best servers I have ever had. He was personable and somehow remembered both your order and your conversations even months later. That level of hospitality really stood out. Prices are not cheap, and the ingredients are not explicitly organic, but the quality, flavor, and thoughtful menu make it well worth it. Highly recommend if you are looking for consistently great food and a standout dining experience in Chattanooga.

It doesn't have any real flashy decor, it's very humble in it's atmosphere and setting. But where it really show off it's greatness is in the food and the service. Our server was "Excellent"! Very helpful with our order and because of our dietary needs we were very specific on what we wanted and didn't want. She made it all happen and when it did, OMG the food was so good (the salsa could have used more cilantro, but I'm nit picking at that) and there were very reasonable portions for a very reasonable price. I know of at least 3 other places in the vicinity of this restaurant that are not only higher priced for what you get (very little), but the food is bland and poorly prepared and/or a poor quality of ingredients that make the food undesirable. This place has got it's act together and does it well. We will be visiting them many times in the future. They are truly worth your time to check out and get good value for your money. Hope this helps :)
