Had the most amazing dinner here! I appreciated our server, Haley, taking the time to review the menu with us to make sure we knew what we were ordering. Our food was delicious and we can't wait to come back again. The patio area was a little on the warm side (closed in an heated as it is winter) but otherwise the atmosphere was great as well.

I usually don't order margheritas. I don't like them except now I crave for their coin margheritas ONLY from this place. I love their happy hours. I've gone on a Tuesday, Thursday, and a Friday around 5pm/6pm so far. I've never waited on a Tuesday or a Thursday. Friday, there was a 30-40minute wait time, but we got sat right away. Their salsa is actually spicy, their guacamole, queso, and red pazole is delicious! I like their ceviche. It's spicy and so good! On top of it all, their chips are warm and has the right amount of saltiness. I have only requested to sit inside where the bar is and I love the vibes, the atmosphere, and just how they set the mood really well. Also, there were at least 3 groups with us so we didn't realize that the restaurant was 40minutes passed closing. The employees didn't kick us out or say anything about closing. Something felt a little off (we weren't treated uncomfortably) and I checked the google hours and we realized we overstayed. We left an extra tip cause we felt so bad!

I would give them a 5 stars if it wasn’t for the salsa. Everything else 5 stars, service, drinks and the molcajete they were so goooood! I would definitely recommend, coming from working around Mexican food, this place is worth visiting.

One of our favorite places! Mezcalritas are always on point! The tuna tartare is fresh on a lovely pile of smashed avocado with a drizzle of sesame oil and balsamic glaze. Sounds odd but it is a delicious combination! They’ve upgraded the barstools recently so it’s perfect if you want to stay a while.
