What an absolute treat! The aesthetics are generally pleasing and casual - from the clean yet colorful murals on the outside, to the vibrant decor inside with simple tables and chairs. We chose to sit outside, which was shaded and lovely. About 6-8 parking spots or park on the street.
The menu was large, which I thought might be a bad sign (not great at anything?), but my goodness - we ordered three things and all were made with fresh vegetables (eg red leaf lettuce and red tomatoes rather than the nutrient deficit and disappointing shredded iceberg lettuce so common at Tex Amex places). The flour tortillas are solid, although I've had better (not super fluffy or dusted with flour, which I like). The red salsa is very very good - no chunks, slightly spicy. Highlight! The barbacoa meat was so flavorful.
One thing I appreciated was that the portions were able to be shared, and their were slightly diverse drink options. No agua de Jamaica but horchata, basic American sodas, tea, and agua frescos.
To make it a solid experience, the service was swift and kind even while busy - they even checked on us outside even though we opted to go there, not being necessarily sat there by the host. Little things very appreciated! read more
