My wife ordered the Grilled Shrimp Platter which was incredible infusion of different cut vegetables and the sauce served was outstanding! Rice and beans were fantastic. The rice tasted like a risotto and it was so tasty. I ordered the fish taco with flour tortilla and it came with different spiced spread and sauces. It was pan fried. I absolutely loved the crunchy corn taco with shredded beef. I will definitely be back with my wife again!

We had two watermelon a mango and a mezcal margarita. They were great. The waiter recommended the watermelon as a favorite and he was absolutely right. The mezcal margarita eas mine and it was deliciously smoky. For the meals this is where i knock a star off because overall the tacos were good but I wouldn't say it was overwhelmingly great. 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 place was close to our hotel so we stopped in for a late lunch yesterday…read more We sat at the bar and were immediately greeted by the bartender. I ordered a Jalapeno Margarita and my wife ordered a Hibiscus Margarita. Both were exceptional. For lunch, I ordered the Chicken Tinga Classic Crispy Tacos and my wife ordered the Chicken "Tejano" Fajita. The bartender also brought us an order of Beans and Rice to share, which was nice. The food was fantastic. I would consider this a high end Mexican restaurant. We liked the decor and dim lighting. We noticed that there was a private room that can be closed off with curtains. This would be great for a small group. The restaurant also has a nice patio area.

He truly made our experience great. To start we had the guac and salsa trio. The salsas and guac were very fresh and the tortilla chips were shaped like tostadas.

To drink we had the green margarita, seasonal watermelon margarita, and both regular and spicy pineapple margaritas. The green and watermelon were unique, refreshing, and tasty.

The place is very open, but not overly loud, except when it is very full. Nice, long bar. Love the bar staff here. This night I sat at a table, so got to experience from another perspective. The food is a mix of Mexican street food and Tex-Mex fusion. It is a mix of chips & Dips, Bocaditos (appetizers and sides), Cokctails, Tacos, and salads. There is also an extensive list of alchol choices. This night two friends grabbed the chicken taquitos and I grabbed the stuffed poblano pepper. The taquitos are the better of the two, if you ask me, as the poblano mole is a bit salty for my tastes (but otherwise good). Service was great. Mario was prompt and took care of our needs nicely.
