The meals were huge and 5 of us took part of our meals home! 6 meals with 2 margaritas and 4 non alcoholic beverages for ~$125. The food was absolutely delicious and the service was fantastic! My verse enchilada was so flavorful and despite the little spice I could taste every item in the meal! We had a variety of meals from my shrimp enchiladas to chicken mole enchiladas, a chicken dish, a vegetarian dish and a salmon dish- all delicious! My granddaughter the toddler enjoyed everything immensely!! The restaurant has many tables and a large size bar.

This will definitely be our regular Mexican spot, can't wait to come back.

So tasty, we each remarked about how good they were. Didn't have room for dessert. But I can definitely see us returning shortly! If you're in the area, this is a Must Try!!

Great menu options available from appetizers to entrees. Very reasonably priced. Margarita was strong and wonderful! The homemade beef empanada was so flavorful and crispy crunchy. Packed full of deliciously seasoned meat. The birra taco was so good and the sweet pork taco was divine! Festive yet cool and relaxed atmosphere. Staff was jovial, attentive and super. The only bummer was that there was no ball for the fossball table in the middle of the dining room. Bar and tables and multiple tvs to catch your favorite sport if that's your thing.

We were handed the menus immediately and the waiter poured us a glass of water. I ordered the Birria Tacos and my friend ordered the Steak Fajitas. The food came out in about twenty minutes and the Steak Fajitas came out sizzling and my Birria Tacos looked amazing. The Birria Tacos were filled with tender meat, great flavors, and seasoned to perfection. The only con I would have to say about the Birria Tacos were that they could of been cruncher and I really don't like Corn Tortillas because it leaves that corn taste in your mouth, and there kind of grainy. I would have preferred it to be on a Flour Tortilla. My friend said her Steak Fajitas were delicious. We even talked about the food the next day to plan another day to go back. The customer service was great and the staff were friendly and outgoing.

I really wanted to love this place as I was so excited for the grand opening, but unfortunately it…read morewas only about average. The ambiance and staff were great, but it was lacking in the other areas of my review. Let's start with the good... The staff was great!! Very kind, very smiley, and they tried to accommodate when possible. Also, the ambiance was really cool. Very nice decor, very cool lighting, and a great bar area. They also have a stage for music, so that was interesting. The margaritas were above average. They definitely pack a punch. I'd definitely recommend the frozen over the rocks though. Now for the lacking areas... The prices were extremely expensive and they are very stingy. Everything was easily 60% more than almost any Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. To make matters worse, a $26 meal does not even come with rice and beans...a standard at most places. Actually, nothing came with rice, beans, or other basic sides. Everything costs extra...basic sides, more chips and salsa, etc. I understand when places have high prices, but I do not appreciate stingy behavior, I find it unethical, especially when they are not forthcoming about it. The food was mediocre, not special. It wasn't bad, but it was not as good as many other places close by. Overall, I would come back if they change some of these things, but until then I'll have to go to other nearby places that are considerably better.

Then,,,,,,, came the move to the Post Road location and the menu changed. All of the vegetarian options are now gone. The rice contains chicken juice / powder, and some 'veggie' options are cooked with meat. For example, the cauliflower is cooked in the same oil as meat. Most restaurants segregate this now. If you don't care about eating meat and meat oils, it's probably as good as it ever was.
