    Came here for a quick dinner. The service was fast. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food & ambiance were absolutely amazing.

    Chips and Salsa

    Delicious food, at a reasonable price, all provided with friendly service in a cozy atmosphere, nothing more you could ask for. My wife and I stopped her for lunch at the recommendation of a friend in the area. Pleasantly surprised to receive complementary chips and salsa (a low-cost choice that ALWAYS wins me over) which we enjoyed while perusing the [large] menu. Ultimately I got chicken tacos and my wife got the shrimp special (don't remember what it was called) and we were both very happy with our orders. Looking forward to coming back soon.

    Had dinner here last night and everything. I mean everything we ordered had flavor and was delicious. If ya want a quick Tex mex place with good food and ambience definitely go try this place out!

    Had a taste for Mexican and what better day to have it than on Taco Tuesday! I passed by this venue many times but never stopped in to grab a bite. There isn't anything fancy about the way it looks inside or out, just an average place to eat. Our greeter was friendly and so was our server. I think her name was Fi? By now if you've been following me, you know I absolutely love a classic margarita with a sugar rim. My choice of tequila this time was Casamigos and this large glass, had the right amount of sweetness, tartness and alcohol...it was all that and a bag of nacho chips...lol! The meal: chips and a nice salsa came out first. Then I ordered a taco salad in the shell which I thought was rather small. After finishing it along with my drink, I realized it was just enough, for I was stuffed! My husband had 3 tacos with beans and rice along with a Corona. He had no complaints. I'm sure we will return, for the food was pretty good and the price was just right.

    Awesome small lowkey food spot. Really nice bar and very attentive staff. The drinks were really good and the food was excellent. The prices are not bad at all especially for the good serving sizes they provide. I recommend if you want a nice small authentic mexican spot for happy hour or for a nice dinner.

    Stopped by to meet a friend here after leaving UMBC. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that they had all day happy hour on Wednesdays. I ordered a grande margarita, flautas, and a half quesadilla. Everything was delicious. The service was prompt and attentive. I would definitely return again when I'm in the area.

    This place gets 5 stars for the tortilla alone! Love this place. It's a staple in Catonsville. Have been going for years and the service and the food has always been top tier!

    The food was soo good. The only con is too much jalapeño peppers. If it wasn't for that, they'd get a perfect score.

    Recently heard about their 35 buck all you can eat and drink weekend brunch special…read more Came out on a Sunday at about 1. It was packed. So it's advised you make a reservation. Each reservation is for 2 hrs. You get to order as much as you want from their brunch menu. Servings are tapas style. The style reminds me of the old cava brunch style. While here I had the following: French toast- nicely cooked. Loved the flavor and blueberry and whipped toppings. Steak and eggs- evenly cooked and prepped to perfection. I loved the chimi sauce on top of the steak. Chicken taquitos- packs a punch. Crisp and deelish. Birria Quesadilla-meaty and adequately cooked. Loved the serving size. Spicy Bloody Maria- very boozy and did not disappoint. Would've loved some horseradish in it as well. Our server Taylor was awesome. She was on top of service and had a great personality. The manager Dixon came over to greet our table. He let us know that in addition to the upstairs, they have a barcade speakeasy in the basement. We checked that out on this visit as well. The game room was chock full of throwback games and new! Also going on during this visit was a day party. Talk about one stop shopping. I'll definitely check them out again for brunch!

    Came in and sat at the bar... margarita was just a huge miss. All sour mix and it was very sweet. I…read moredidn't finish it or even put a dent in it. We got fajitas, nachos and chori queso. Queso was the best thing we got. Food just needs more seasoning. Nachos were a generous portion. Restaurant ambiance was pretty typical. Service wasn't bad. They told us the frozen marg wasn't worth ordering so we did appreciate that they warned us it wasn't good.
