    I wasn't expecting peas in every dish but not a big deal, a little pricey the prices are not the same online. It's very decorative inside wasn't very many people there's a small bar too. If I was to suggest a plate I would suggest the carne asada burrito and if you don't like peas be sure to mention that!

    WHEN TACOS ARE LIFE... Ok so this unassuming restaurant has been around for YEARS and while I have my favorites from their menu, (as in, the homemade horchata and steak tostadas), I recently tried their birria tacos with consome for the first time.... And BOY OH BOY, I can't help but to crave them right now as I type this out. Juicy, succulent and perfectly spiced, the meat just falls apart! I didn't even realize they didn't come with cheese until now because I honestly didn't miss it. As someone who eats A LOT, I found these surprisingly filling, although the platter only comes with 3 (haha I guess that's the normal portion size....heck, maybe even 2 is what others places are serving). Anyway, I had an excellent meal and decided to dine in this time around - service was great! Parking is the only thing that always gives me a bit of trouble as it's on-street so be cautious of that. Otherwise you could really just call for take-out and be good to go. Give this place a try if you haven't already :)

    Great service, great food. Super clean and straight forward. I can't believe I lived in this city for 18 years and have never come here before. I am so looking forward to my next visit!

    Cool little spot with authentic Mexican food. Fast service, great prices and delicious cocktails. It's quite small and somewhat cozy. To be honest, everything on the menu looks good. My garlic shrimp had the perfect amount of seasoning, the rice taste great and all the veggies were fresh but chicken was a bit bland. They have some of the best chips I've tasted, grade A guacamole.. it's A must have appetizer. I do think they should have a hostess, it was a bit awkward when I walked in with no one to greet me but overall I'd come again. Street parking only. I'll rate it 4.5 stars based on the service, food and drinks. I'm Not a fan of the location.

    Used to go here all the time back in the day. I stopped going because there are comparable and cheaper Mex options in town. Can't remember why my wife and I decided to go back the other night, but it might be because my wife loves their potato quesadillas and needed a fix. Anyway, we sat at the bar and had 2 really tasty frozen mango Margaritas. We split some chips which are served on a thin bed of refried beans (nice touch). Along with the potato quesadillas, we had 3 rolled tacos (taquitos) which were also served on a thin bed of refried beans. Anyway, the place hasn't changed much. Quaint and pretty clean. The food is still really good and the prices are still a little more than other comparable options. That said, they serve some unique dishes that will probably bring us back again.

    I've been coming to this restaurant for years for the great food and service. the service still great but the food quality is bad. I told our waiter how rubbery and fatty my carne asada was and showed her the plate but all she did was apologize. I was not expecting free food but to have the meat replaced and it was not. Not good for business...

    First off, the good: Ethan our server was very sweet…read moreThe food was DELICIOUS (carnitas quesadilla and bean dip in particular) However we had a pretty bad customer service experience with the owner who was contacted after we noticed a discrepancy with our bill. We ordered the chips and guac for 14.50, which comes with beans and salsa, and says says free refills (menu attached). We asked for one refill of beans and one of guac. When we got the bill, we were supposed to see charges for the beans and guac. Our server explained that the free refills were only for the chips and salsa. We asked to see a menu again and pointed out that it says free refills. Our server contacted the owner/manager who doubled down on the misleading statement and charged us for both refills (total of 10.50 additional cost). It's really a bummer because I had read a bunch of reviews on here and my takeaway is that the food is great but the management leaves something to be desired. Be upfront with your customers! It's a great restaurant with delicious food, I'm glad small businesses exist, and I wish that we had been treated with more grace and honesty. Losing $10 on your end (or even just being upfront and stating the refill policy on the menu) is well worth it for a positive customer experience. I would have loved to give this place 5 stars but took 1 off for the misleading pricing and another for the way that it was handled by the manager.

The menu is small and yet there's always plenty of yummy things to try when I go, even as a picky eater. There are multiple vegetarian and even a vegan option or two. I always have to get the guac when I come here - it's the perfect amount of creaminess without too much onion. Their red salsa is a great slightly chunky - slightly juicy texture and has a bit of a kick. The vegan burrito bowl is my go-to as a vegetarian, and the street corn side as an app is elite! It is a little spicier these days since the recipe was updated from on the cob to off the cob (I much prefer off for ease of eating and sharing!) The Coconut Cartel margarita was creamy and smooth and went down *quick* haha. Others in my party loved the spicy Margarito, although they were out of the main spicy tequila but the servers offered substitute recommendations. I came with a very large work group today, and the servers were so patient and flexible when we asked for modifications from the menu. I even was able to order the queso dip with the chorizo on the side (yummy but very thick cheese dip!), and they were very attentive of my colleague's mushroom allergy and made sure she got dedicated dishes, even when we were all sharing apps. The churro donuts seem to have changed recipe and got mixed reviews - some thought they were dry, another says she Uber Eats just those regularly Sitting outside in the summer on the patio is nice. Tasty, interesting dishes with modern urban twists on Mexican recipes. Truly the only slight downside is that sometimes parking can be tricky in this area, but you can always find free street parking, it may just take you a little bit. Even the funky and creative decor is a selling feature for me. A must-try!

    I used to come here all the time when I lived in Providence. In the three times I've been back over…read morethe last few years, I've had a couple stellar experiences and one subpar experience. But I'm someone that believes anyone can have an off day so overall this place is really great. First and foremost, get the margarita. They are the best I've ever had. Also, get the tacos. Even as an app they're so great. I got the shrimp and a veg recently. I've enjoyed all of the entrees I've ever gotten. Honorable mention is the shrimp Diablo. Super spicy and delightful. The interior is warm, cozy, and a perfect combo of lit enough so you can see but dark enough to set a mood for spilling tea or flirting with your date. Equal parts good for girls night and good for date night. The not so great: I got flautas once and they fell flauta (haha). Also, it's sometimes a one man show so service can be slow especially if you need refills so be sure to order multiple drinks at a time, or better yet a pitcher. Street parking can be a real pain but sometimes you get lucky on a side street. Definitely worth a visit if you've never been!

So we took a chance. And we were not at all disappointed! First, we were greeted warmly, in a genuine way, by the owner. They seemed genuinely glad to have us. The older gentleman was friendly and playful towards my son. The food was delicious! I had enchiladas with housemate mole. The mole was fantastic: complex and nuanced. My daughter had enchiladas verde, which was smothered in a poblano salsa that was also complex, with great green heat. My son ordered the arracherra, a peppercorn rubbed steak served with homemade guacamole and a delicious cactus salad. I was tempted by several other dishes, particularly the enchiladas mineras (beef cheeks - yum!). All in all, a warm, welcoming, delicious experience that made me want come back. And I will.

At their front patio, they had the World Cup game playing, but the back patio felt cozier so we opted for that. The inside though was a strong second since the lighting is very low, creating a cool and calm environment. Walking through the restaurant to get to our table made me realize that each table is unique, no two are decorated the same or have the same furniture. It was a hot day but the overhead mesh cover blocked out a lot of the sun. Our waitress made us feel very welcome from the start and told us about their drink and food specials. My friend ordered Guatemalan beer as well as a Spanish beer. For food, we ordered the plantain fries, octopus, calamari, and shrimp salad, and grilled lamp chops. The seafood salad came out first. According to the menu, it was going to be paired with cornbread. It looked like sourdough bread but had a far denser consistency. I was expecting the salad to have lots of shrimp to act as a filler but surprisingly, it was about 60% octopus, 25% calamari, 10% shrimp, and 5% onions. The seafood was very flavorful, tasted fresh, and cooked perfectly. The portion size was great for two. Next came the plantain fries, which I was least impressed with as it was essentially fried plantain chunks. I think it would have been better if they were cut into smaller pieces that can be easily dipped and consumed in one bite. The plantain was gently ripe, so just a little sweet and the dipping sauce was like a less sour sour cream. Lastly, the lamp chops came out and the presentation was wonderful. They were a bit skinnier and less tender than that I was expecting, but flavor wise they were good. We enjoyed the food, ambiance, and service here.
