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.

Then when we went to pick up the food, we had to go to the salsa bar to fill all of the cups up on our own. I would love if they could have some pre-filled for to-go orders. Despite all that, the food was fresh and delicious with generous portions. Our group got tacos, bowls, and even the loaded fries. We were all extremely satisfied and the food was ready quickly. I also appreciate that when we ordered one of the bowls for our vegan counterpart that had no meat on it, they waited to confirm with us that we did not want any meat. Thank you for that attention to detail! Would definitely go again.

Extremely overpriced for what you get. We ordered two nachos with added guacamole, no drinks and…read morethe total was close to $50, which felt unreasonable for Mexican food. The nachos themselves were more like a slop bowl than something you'd expect. On top of that, the music is so loud that your ears are ringing by the time you leave, which makes it hard to enjoy the experience.

These were $7 which he typed in himself so I'm not sure if he just decided to charge me on his own or what. Anyways for $7 I would expect my chips to be hot and fresh not stale. The salsas that came with it left much to be desired the Verde sauce tasted like the jar sauce from Heinz. The menu doesn't give you prices for drinks so make sure to ask to avoid any crazy totals. My margarita was all sour mix and her Jameson and ginger was all soda. Overall drinks were poorly made. The restaurant itself was basically empty and it still took about ten minutes to get those drinks. The place is covered in contrasting elements. It's a very busy look.

My friend and I both went with the margarita cocktail with a sugar rim and it did not disappoint. For food, I ordered the beef empanadas (three count) and they were juicy and satisfying.

Always a win. Solid spot for a post-event wind down. Would definitely return.

I ordered the carne asada and was genuinely excited, but it was a letdown from the start. They never asked how I wanted the steak cooked, which is a huge mistake. Then they covered the steak in cheese--why? That completely overpowered everything. I couldn't even taste the chimichurri. A suggestion: grill the steak properly and serve it simply. If you need cast iron, use a skillet--not a cast iron bowl. Don't drown it in cheese, and please don't cut my steak for me. I'm a grown adult and can handle that myself. On the positive side, the service was on point--our waitress was amazing. The inside was clean and had a kind‑of Mexican vibe going on.

It is a cool concept and they brand themselves as a restaurant co-op. I have tried a couple, but the one I order most frequently is Los Sabrosos Cocina Mexicana. They aren't fancy, but if you got the late night munchies for some greasy Mexican they come in clutch. Their quesadillas and birrias are pretty bomb and they have a really good hot salsa that brings the heat. I've only recently been made aware that they offer a beef birria pizza and now I am very intrigued. I will need to try soon and report back. If you're out late one night and looking for a quick delivery check them out!

We got two Burrito Fresas (one grilled chicken and one chicken tinga). The burritos had the COOLEST crunchy cheese coating on the tortilla that the hugs all of the ingredients inside the burrito. Both the grilled chicken and the chicken tinga were phenomenal. We truly could not decide who the "winner" was because they were both so flavorful. Now, to talk about the other fun part!!! SORBET MARGARITAS! I'm obsessed. I had initially seen Que Fresca on social media, specifically for the soft serve margs. And let me tell you - they did nit disappoint. They have two flavors - strawberry and lemon (and then you can do a swirl). They were SO refreshing and delightful!! It was such a fun way to ~eat~ a margarita! All of the staff were friendly and very quick. The restaurant is well laid out and I love that it had TVs to watch all the games. The bathrooms are fun too - as the mirrors have color changing lights! I cannot wait to come back and try more!

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.
