Anna Rosemond

Excellent service . Our server (forget his name but young man with medium colored hair working 1/2/14 in evening) was knowledgable and friendly ! The bacon guacamole is to die for as is chorizo queso !

Lisa P.

Amazing service, food, drinks, atmosphere. It's definitely a must! Also, a three hour validation is now offered for parking in the 12th/Virginia street deck.

The salsa is fresh with a hint of sweetness to it. The sausage tacos are delicious. Chips are served in a fryer basket and service is very good.

Sarah

The blackberry basil margarita was delicious! $5 margaritas all day on Mondays. Happy hour 3-7 at the bar M-F. Empanadas were good but tacos looked fantastic!

Lauren McMullen

Queso (the dip ) + sweet plantains + shrimp empanadas + crab guac (but order the queso last...or have it out your meal. You'll want to dip your children in this cheese smh) fish tacos were ???? 'ok'

Wandering Foodie

The pork empanadas are a must. Substitute their sweet Mexican corn for beans for an instant revelation.

CC T

Cocktails were amazing. Ryan was our waiter he was funny, and gave lots of suggestions

Jill McCormack

The guacamole was great, but don't spend the money on the crab version. The fish tacos were wonderful. I wasn't impressed with the Blueberry Hibiscus drink. The atmosphere and wait staff were great.

I can't recommend the brunch . The $10 mimosa charafe is mostly ice, the carnitas poached egg dish only had 1 egg , and the carnitas has no flavor. The avacado omelette also needs additional flavor.

Michelle Pegler

We loved the cheese fritters and salsa flight. Fajitas are delicious as well .

Steve Trumbull

Everything we tried was great. Shrimp fajitas were my favorite.

Bacon guacamole . chicken taco salad . FISH TACOS. blood orange whiskey sour .

Christie Griffin

Their margaritas are made with plenty of fresh lime juice . If it's too tart for your taste, ask for a little more agave .

Ariella Parlitsis

Queso is on point! Ask for Chase as your server -- he's amazing!

Tim S

Finish off a bottle of Tequila and they'll hang the bottle with your name on it...drink up

Matthew Barany

Cool spot...margs & guacamole are great. BUT, it's not enjoyable when management criticizes the servers in front of the customers. We were there for an hour and saw this twice.

Mark Bain

best guacamole I've had on the east coast. And!!! They do margaritas PROPER here, son.

Corey

The rice and bean bowl is great! Love the mojitos !

Christie Griffin

I've tried all their tacos and chicken is the best!

S P

Large tequila selection ; delicious chips and salsa .

Chad Williams

Plantains were similar to cardboard. Empanadas were dry. Good service and drinks at bar . Space is very nice looking. Will go back, but first visit for food left me unimpressed.

Tryreno Sowell

Food is pretty decent... I think I was shorted on my chicken portion of my Fajitas though. WORSE MARGARITAS I ever tasted at a Mexican restaurant !!

Craig K

If you want tequila , this is the place. If you want interesting, flavorful, Mexican food , this is the place.

Bryan Mortensen

The food is pretty good, but the environment is the real hero here.

Patrick C.

Get the Mole Braised Rabbit and the Matador Margarita !

Allie M

Best margaritas I've had in the richmond area.

This restaurant is beautiful and has great tequilas but the food is tasteless, overpriced and far from being authentic mexican style .

As a huge fan of Chipotle, this place was infinitely better than the fast casual chain. The fork & knife burritos are a must, and not too badly priced (about 10 bones). You can't beat fresh! - Brian Attridge
