The restaurant was small but there were outdoor seatings to accommodate the crowds. Parking can be tricky, but we were able to get one without any issues. Upon entering the restaurant, we were greeted by a friendly worker who took our order. Glancing at the menu, we knew what to order. We decided to try their carne asada tacos and al pastor tacos. For drinks, we decided to get the strawberry horchata and Mexican coke. I really enjoyed their strawberry horchata as it tasted like a strawberry shortcake. They have a coconut flavor one which I might try next time. After ordering, we grabbed a table by the salsa bar. I like how the salsa bar is self-served so you can have unlimited toppings. Overall, the tacos came out fast and were bomb! They give you a lot of meats on each tacos. Did I mention the meats were high quality? I guess that justified the cost. The meats were nicely charred flavor. Very similar to how they grilled their meats at their other location. I will for sure be coming back for the good food and vibes!

I love horchata and they had a coconut-flavored version I thought I'd try, but it tasted like they used 20lbs of sugar. I was only able to take a few sips before tossing it. I also ordered 2 carne asada tacos and the tortilla was the best part of it. The slightly cold meat was cubed and offered little flavor aside from being overly salty. My lower jaw bone at least got a good workout from the tough meat. I won't be visiting again.

You do order at the cashier/order taker and then they give you a number and when your food comes out, you get the food delivered to the table with the number. When you are done, you have to buss your own table and do all that stuff besides wiping off your table. I thought the environment was awesome and I would highly recommend again and again to anybody that wants to come great place. And they do put the taco in Tacoma.

I seen this place recommended a few times and after going, I see why it's recommended. Food They do have a pretty solid selection of eats as well as an extensive drink menu. We didn't really know what to order and I'm also on a diet so I opted for the steak salad which honestly was probably one of the best steak salads I've ever eaten. You can't go wrong with their bowls either. Now the price of said items are a different story. Although the eats are what I would call extremely high-quality, they were definitely on the pricier side, as were the drinks. Service We were seated almost immediately, even though we had a reservation and our server was very engaged. Our water cups were never empty. I think we would've appreciated a little more small talk or chitchat, but it was kind of busy in there so I won't necessarily hold that against them. Ambiance The restaurant was way smaller than it looks online, and the seating was a little awkward. We were sitting on this bench thing, but there is some type of separator in between the missus and I. I'm sure we could've sat somewhere else but so it goes. I do believe that there is seating upstairs, but we did not go up there so I'm not sure. What I did love about this restaurant is that the natural light from the big windows made it feel warm, and the music and plants/vegetation really did make it feel like you were somewhere tropical. Loved that! Conclusion Overall, I give this place a 4/5 would recommend. The food is great, the service is good and I'm pretty sure you will have a great time here, just be prepared to spend a little bit more than you anticipate!

I say at the bar amidst a fairly empty lunch crowd and was able to enjoy a nice calm in the middle of a busy city and busy day. The restaurant was clean and felt inviting. The food had no shortage of flavors. The bread for the cheesesteak was even made in house! It was incredibly soft. I wish there was more steak in the sandwich, it was loaded with grilled veggies and was nonetheless delicious. The star for me was actually the pozole. The hominy was cooked perfectly! And the flavor profile danced on my palate to the last bite. They use vegetarian option chorizo (impossible meat) for this, and they communicate that upon ordering as well. I look forward to my next bowl!

All street parking was full for blocks so we parked a few blocks away and walked. Only when we entered did we notice they validate parking for restaurant guests at the nearby parking garage. We were there in time for evening happy hour and they had a lot of choices for food and drink but to be honest, I thought the prices for happy hour were not that cheap and compared to other restaurants. Our server did a great job answering our questions and bringing out our food and drinks. We ordered zucchini fries and nachos. The zucchini fries were delicious and perfectly crunchy with the batter on top. We really enjoyed those. The nachos were flavorful too but the cheese wasn't what we were expecting. It was a green chili queso but it seemed very runny vs a thicker cheese. It was still delicious but just something different than we expected.

Even though it was my first time there, the baristas treated me like a regular. Deanna was super patient with taking my order and answering all my questions about my drink. I decided to get a 16 oz mocha with oat milk and it was perfect, I adored how creamy and light the milk felt floating in my mouth. The chocolate was perfectly incorporated into the drink for a delectably sweet flavour. The service was so speedy and I was surprised when another barista, Jenna, walked my order to my table with a glass of water! Everyone here truly went above and beyond to take care of me. The blueberry banana cake was super moist and dense. I definitely was only able to eat a few bites before taking the rest home, but it tasted super good heated up as leftovers. My favourite thing about this cafe though is how decorated it was for valentine's day! pink is my favourite colour and i loved how fun their decor was!

What really sold me was the Cheesy Birria Tacos that I spotted while checking out the menu and so I knew pretty much exactly what I was going to order upon arrival. And that was indeed what I got and they were excellent! The beef that was the specific meat in the taco (Birria can also be goat or lamb) and was absolutely wonderful. The cheese and the crunchy tacos rounded out this small lunch quite nicely and was very satisfying. There was a red sauce in a cup that came with my three tacos in which I dipped the tacos into it which added to the pleasant spicy heat. These tacos I highly recommend and they also have other menu options that look quite promising as well. I can't wait to go back!

The public dock is nice and I'd say there's about 50 feet of dock space to tie up. The restaurant is VERY popular on sunny days and lots of people out on the deck having drinks. But, it seems to empty out early like about 7-7:30 and we stayed to have some meat! All in all the food was great, the steaks were served just right. I've really never been to a mexican steakhouse so this was a great experience, where you cut up your steak and put it into your own tacos. The prices are reasonable and the menu is great, including desserts. Pancho was our server, he's a very nice man and has a great sense of humor, great stop if you're in Manchester that you shouldn't miss.
