Portions are the perfect big size. Theres a chip bar where you can get chips, multiple salsas, picked jalapenos & carrots and pico de gallo. The Quesabirria's always leave me full and taking some home. Service is going up to a counter and they give you a little device that beeps when your food is ready. Plenty of seating although it was a bit hot in there. We brought in my family of 4 and we paid around $50 for all of us! This place is definitely one more people should be talking about.

Other than this evening, this is our go to Mexican place and is normally great! Just avoid tge fish tacos, try lengua instead!

If interior design alone determined ratings, this place would be a winner. Unfortunately, I came for the seafood, and they were out of a couple of the dishes I had been looking forward to. My husband ordered a mezcal cocktail that I found absolutely abhorrent. It tasted more like a liquid dessert than a cocktail. We started with the birria flautas, which were impressively crispy but also incredibly dense. Both of us felt uncomfortably full after eating them, and that was just the appetizer. Between the unavailable menu items, the disappointing cocktail, and a less-than-memorable start to the meal, we just weren't feeling it.

Thanx for the reminder of why we stopped coming in, and they wonder why business is down, tuff business to be in anymore but there are places out there that are doing a killer business doing it right???

And I'm also a bit of a salsa snob. We stopped in for happy hour for the first time and started with the FREE salsa -- which, apparently, isn't always a given in Boise. It was legitimately some of the best salsa I've ever had. Then we ordered the Grande Nachos with chicken. "Grande" is not false advertising. The portion was enormous, we got completely full, and never even made it to trying anything else. I can count on three fingers the places, out of MANY attempts, where I've found truly great nachos -- and these get the #1 finger. And no, that's not the middle finger. Highly recommend everything we've had so far. We'll definitely be back to work our way through the rest of the menu. So far: winner for sure.

We came on a Saturday night and it was busy but not overly busy, which was nice. I started the evening with their regular house margarita, which was a bit too sour for my liking so our waitress suggested ordering a flavored margarita to add sweetness. I went out of the box and ordered their hibiscus margarita and WOW I'm coming back for more!! We were disappointed in their house salsa, but we did order a ceviche appetizer which was very fresh tasting. I really appreciated all the very fresh vegetables in the ceviche. My husband ordered the steak fajitas- amazing! I ordered the veggie enchiladas on flour tortillas- amazing! I appreciated how they have a side of carne asada that you can order. It was perfect for our young son who wanted steak. Our son also appreciated the Jarritos flavored sodas. Lastly, we were disappointed in the fried ice cream as it didn't have much flavor and the melted caramel it came with tasted like goat cheese. Prices were reasonable, service was good, and restaurant was nice and clean. Yes, I'll be coming back :)

A decent Selection of lunch menu offerings, I went with Chili Verde, pork in green sauce, eithucorn tortillas. We ordered chips and salsa, interesting because it's not complimentary as in so many Mexican places, is one hotter yellow sauce with pineapple, a typical medium sauce, and a mild, plus beans were ordered. The chips were gold, house made, the yellow sauce was definitely good, would probably be great on fish tacos, but the medium red was what I preferred with chips. Lunch arrived with the obligatory "hot plate" warning meaning it had bern in the oven. As always, I started by trying the rice and beans, v both were good enough I nearly finished them before even trying the Chili Verde. What was interesting here was I wanted to use the larger than average sized corn tortillas to get every bit of the verde sauce off the plate! Something, we were too busy talking to tell, was different. I don't ever remember wanting to sop all the sauce up with the tortillas before! Would I come back, yes, there is enough that looked interesting to return.

The menu has a few things you can order from burritos, tacos, tortas and other fun items. We ordered a Carne Asada Burrito and it has rice, beans, meat of choice & lettuce and avocado it was pretty good. We got some tacos as well and not sure if she mixed up another ordered but we were short 3 tacos on our order and that was a bummer.. I was really looking forward to them. Their asada, carnitas, el pastor were all really good and authentic flavor and loved that the pastor had the pineapple chunks as well. One thing I did dislike was I asked about chips order and it said $5 when I asked her if I can just have a couple, she was a bit confused and asked the lead there. Apparently they didn't have chips in their truck and had to go find them. That should have been my no thank you but I figured ohh let's give them a try. Once we got to our house and saw the $5 chips I was honestly a bit upset they were store bought nacho chips. Tacos are $2.50 I don't understand why chips are $5 and they aren't even like your traditional Mexican chips or something along those lines. That was my only downfall to this place but those are just chips. Their food was honestly good no doubt about it when we were ordering they had a few people eating there and a few to go orders. Maybe take them off the menu or make little baggies and purchase chips from a Mexican store or make your own tostadas..
