    Orhan was absolutely fantastic and made our dining experience so enjoyable from the moment we sat…read moredown. He was attentive, friendly, and always made sure we had everything we needed without us even having to ask. His service was quick, professional, and welcoming, which really stood out and made us feel taken care of the whole time. It is rare to have a server who brings such a positive energy to the table, and Orhan definitely did that. I ordered the Burrito Basico with steak, and it was amazing. The steak was tender, flavorful, and cooked perfectly, and the burrito itself was packed with fresh ingredients that all blended together so well. Every bite was full of flavor, and the portion size was more than worth it. Between the delicious food and Orhan's outstanding service, this was an excellent experience overall. I will definitely be coming back and highly recommend asking for Orhan.

    Milanesa Torta (5/5): Delicious blend of flavors. The chipotle mayo and the pickled onions…read morecomplimented the chicken very well. The chicken was crispy but a little thin. The bread was soft and chewy. I liked that this was served with the good, battered fries. Birria Torta (4/5): Good birria flavor with lots of meat. I liked that this was served with the good, battered fries. RATING SYSTEM 5 - Great (Need to get this again) 4 - Good (Would get this again) 3 - Ok (Might give this another shot) 2 - Not Good (Won't get this again) 1 - Bad (Telling people to avoid this)

    So as we elected for tacos.. close to our hotel, this was in walking distance…read more The ambiance and decor are vibrant and match the taqueria aesthetic. The idea is that place your order, pick a seat and your order is delivered to you. We picked our seats at the bar first because it was pretty packed for Friday night. We took our time to browse the menu but we knew we'd be getting the IG viral Sorbet flights we'd seen. Now on first attempt we got our food, it was completely cold. We informed one of the waiters and asked for our meals to be remade. So upon getting my food second time: 1 Birria Taco, 1 Chips and Queso and 1 Chicken Tinga, it was warm. The Birria taco was my favorite as the chicken didn't hold too much flavor for me. Now we ordered 2 Sorbet flights. We didn't get them as advertised.. no rim coating and the flavor offerings were duplicated. As we compared what we got from other patrons we saw what was missing and the flavor differences. Overall our meal and drinks were underwhelming and we let the staff and manager on hand know. She apologized for not making our Sorbets with rim coating and the food mishap. As guest of NC for the weekend, our host told us we'd gone to the wrong location.

    My family and I came here for dinner before heading to a soccer game. I ordered the steak fajita…read morebowl, my son got the steak fajita quesadilla, and my husband ordered the Cali burrito. Unfortunately, my experience was underwhelming. The fajita bowl felt overpriced for the portion I received. I only got about four small pieces of steak. The way the vegetables were cut also made it difficult to eat and mix everything together, especially in a bowl. There were very few beans, but a large amount of vegetables, mostly onions. Overall, the food was just okay. The ambiance and servers were nice, which I appreciated. However, one staff member didn't seem very welcoming and came across as a bit annoyed, which affected the overall experience.
