    ** RICE BOWL**
    Sharon L.

    So glad I stopped by this place! I got the bowl and everything tasted so fresh, flavorful, and delicious! I would definitely come back if in the area. The workers were great and the inside of the restaurant is very spacious and clean. I recommend and can't wait to be back.

    **BYO TACOS (3)** Chipotle Chicken and Carne Asada

    So glad I came across this place! I am visiting from Los Angeles and I will say that this place is delicious! Quick tip, if you like your tortilla a little crispy as for it to be extra heated. It comes out very soft, yet still delicious! To each their own :) Overall meat was seasoned very well and they are very generous with their portions!

    When I laugh at bad Tex Mex, I go bajajajajaja. The food here is more 3 star and it's definitely not Mexican but more American style like an unhealthy Chipotle perhaps if you will. Like Baja Fresh in Cali but slightly more fresh (LOL). The reason I upgrade it from 3 to 4 stars is because there are a couple of tasty things on the menu and I've been here a few times now and it's packed with fun people and college people (mutually exclusive, jk), and it's open till 2 in the morning - I can't really ask for more than that - and I'm talking even on unfashionable weekdays.

    Came to Providence for the first time and my friend had to take me here! I can say that it did not disappoint. The chicken quesadillas tasted great, however the pico de gallo was on another level!! We also got the chips and salsa and they were also delightful!

    Came here while in town for work. My little cousin goes to URI and suggested we try this place out. It was Taco Tuesday, so I figured why not?! We arrived on Tuesday evening, so the place was packed with college students - no biggie. I look about 19 and fit right in....right. So it's your typical taco spot, you order closest to the door and work your way down until you get to the cashier. They have tacos, burritos, fajitas, whatever you want! They have soooo many toppings. For a rinky dink taqueria, they sure get packed and the customer service is great too! Thank you Novely for showing us such kindness while we were in town! Great service goes a long way. She was super helpful with everything and really made us feel at home since it was my first time there. I got a chicken and shrimp taco. I must've added at least 6-7 toppings on my tacos. They were so large I could barely hold them together to take a bite. So sorry for the people who had negative experiences here. The bad reviews seem to be more based on service than food, which is crazy because I had such a positive experience all around. If you've never been here, don't let the bad reviews deter you. I had a great time and left super stuffed. Oh and I got a side of fries and they were the good, big fries, golden and fresh out of the fryer - just how I like them. The verdict? Soooooo goood, take me back!

    Vegetable tacos in a hard shell are so good and they aren't stingy with their toppings! The shrimp quesadilla is also tasty and again they are generous with toppings! The chips are good, the only thing negative I can say is that their cheese sauce isn't very flavorful!

The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and has a massive and well stocked bar. We were seated next to the bar and window and I will say that it made for a pretty loud experience. Nothing they can necessarily do about that though. Our waitress was attentive and had great recommendations for food. I ordered the iced tea and the "incredible burrito". Our food came out quickly and I was impressed by the portion sizes and quality of the food. If I had to give a minor criticism is that I felt the plate was actually a bit too small for the meal. Everything kind of melded together and fell off the plate. However, everything else was great. The rice was plentiful and had a nice flavor. The chili was a great addition and the burrito itself was filled well and I enjoyed the chicken and beef. This is definitely a place I would come back to, and with such an expansive menu there's something different you could try each time you come in.

    One of my favorite places for a date or to bring friends! I feel like I'm always talking about how…read moremuch I love it here. The menu is small and yet there's always plenty of yummy things to try when I go, even as a picky eater. There are multiple vegetarian and even a vegan option or two. I always have to get the guac when I come here - it's the perfect amount of creaminess without too much onion. Their red salsa is a great slightly chunky - slightly juicy texture and has a bit of a kick. The vegan burrito bowl is my go-to as a vegetarian, and the street corn side as an app is elite! It is a little spicier these days since the recipe was updated from on the cob to off the cob (I much prefer off for ease of eating and sharing!) The Coconut Cartel margarita was creamy and smooth and went down *quick* haha. Others in my party loved the spicy Margarito, although they were out of the main spicy tequila but the servers offered substitute recommendations. I came with a very large work group today, and the servers were so patient and flexible when we asked for modifications from the menu. I even was able to order the queso dip with the chorizo on the side (yummy but very thick cheese dip!), and they were very attentive of my colleague's mushroom allergy and made sure she got dedicated dishes, even when we were all sharing apps. The churro donuts seem to have changed recipe and got mixed reviews - some thought they were dry, another says she Uber Eats just those regularly Sitting outside in the summer on the patio is nice. Tasty, interesting dishes with modern urban twists on Mexican recipes. Truly the only slight downside is that sometimes parking can be tricky in this area, but you can always find free street parking, it may just take you a little bit. Even the funky and creative decor is a selling feature for me. A must-try!

    Cool spot near downtown providence. Plenty of seating indoors and a big outdoor sitting area (but…read morenot in this heat!). They had lots of TVs spread out in diff areas, you could catch the world cup games without any issues. The service was super attentive and friendly. Tacos were good, I had a pastor and carnitas taco. Both made with fresh tortillas and the meat had plenty of flavor. Only minor miss was the guac. Didnt taste that fresh, but was not bad. Would def come back to this place, cant go wrong with the main items on the menu.

    First off, the good: Ethan our server was very sweet…read moreThe food was DELICIOUS (carnitas quesadilla and bean dip in particular) However we had a pretty bad customer service experience with the owner who was contacted after we noticed a discrepancy with our bill. We ordered the chips and guac for 14.50, which comes with beans and salsa, and says says free refills (menu attached). We asked for one refill of beans and one of guac. When we got the bill, we were supposed to see charges for the beans and guac. Our server explained that the free refills were only for the chips and salsa. We asked to see a menu again and pointed out that it says free refills. Our server contacted the owner/manager who doubled down on the misleading statement and charged us for both refills (total of 10.50 additional cost). It's really a bummer because I had read a bunch of reviews on here and my takeaway is that the food is great but the management leaves something to be desired. Be upfront with your customers! It's a great restaurant with delicious food, I'm glad small businesses exist, and I wish that we had been treated with more grace and honesty. Losing $10 on your end (or even just being upfront and stating the refill policy on the menu) is well worth it for a positive customer experience. I would have loved to give this place 5 stars but took 1 off for the misleading pricing and another for the way that it was handled by the manager.
