First visit, had the brisket ...OMG!...so tender, so flavorful, so friggin good! Great accompaniment of butternut squash and kale !

Hobylopo

Incredible service with inspiring food! Got sat before the quoted 20 minute wait and within minutes had a delicious blood orange marg in front of me! Save room for the Curtis!

The arroz con camarron is the best I’ve ever had at any Mexican restaurant .

Megan Irvine

The arroz con Cameron was amazingly good, with fresh corn and spicy red rice . It's my new comfort dish.

Bryn Deluca

During the summer months they have a grilled avocado with corn appetizer . GET IT. It is my absolute favorite item on the menu.

Nick DiColandrea

Top notch fresh made guacamole ! Make sure you get here at 1130 or earlier to beat the lunch rush!

Brent Bates

Baja fish tacos and guac were really good. Top shelf margaritas were a little watered down.

Brooke C.

Can I say "platinum margarita " with Don Julio. Queso . Guacamole . Carne Asda Tacos . Perfection!

The Rib-eye was okay, but strange to have mashed potatoes in a Mexican Rest. The apps were great and many people around had excellent looking food. The mole dish looked excellent!
