    Carmi A.

    Great Mexican restaurant and all around dining experience. I went here with some family for dinner over the weekend. When we walked in the dining room was packed, there were people sitting at the bar up front, and there was a band playing in the front by the entrance. The band played all night long - from the moment we walked in, and they were going strong while we were leaving hours later. We didn't have a reservation but we might've got lucky, it's probably best to make a reservation for a weekend dinner. The ambiance was exactly what I was expecting, a beautifully painted and laid out space, with decorations on the walls. The energy was high throughout the restaurant - every table was having a good time. The owner is always around and checking on guests. The food and drinks could not have been better. They have a full collection of signature margaritas, mojitos, and other cocktails. We got a ton of food for the table and picked at every plate. Every single dish that landed on the table was delicious and flavorful. I recommend the mixed ceviche and the tostones caribeños as appetizers. For entrees we had the mocaljete, shrimp mazatlan, enchiladas, and shrimp a la diabla. Delicious, big but not giant entree portions. And of course you can't forget about the flan for dessert. You have to stop by Escorza's! You won't be disappointed!

    Have been here twice so far. For starters we had guacamole and queso fundido. I really liked the guacamole but didn't love the queso. I will not order that again. I have ordered a veggie quesadilla and a burrito-both were good. I am giving 4 stars instead of 3 because of service. Staff is great and so is the live music on fridays!

    California tacos, substituted shrimp for the grilled chicken. Yummy

    The taco options weren't mix and match which would be cool. The passion fruit mojito was decent. Chips and salsa was decent. The tacos were really good. I ordered the California tacos but substituted shrimp instead of the chicken. We were charged an extra 2 $ for that which wasn't a big deal but they should just offer the tacos with your choice of protein. That would solve that issue pretty easily. I was excited for the rice and beans but the rice was obviously old and not hot and fresh. It wasn't even slightly warm. The beans were decent but had some cheese on top of it that didn't even melt slightly .... Because the beans were also cold. I just wish there was a little more attention to details like that. Overall, decent. Not running to come back but it wasn't a bad dinner. The drinks and chips and salsa could have been better. Little things could have been warmed and that would have elevated the experience but the tacos (which I came for) were pretty good.

    Celebrating at Escorzo's!

    Wow the food did not disappoint! Got the fresh, guacamole, extra spicy D'lish. Poppers and a nachos were filling. We were a party of five celebrating a birthday and we had some tequila of course and the beverages were fabulous.! The service was prompt and efficient. A band came on and played some wonderful, Mexican music. Very festive atmosphere and vibe ! Recommend getting reservations!

    Incredible service! Ivan was attentive, personable, and genuinely fun, making our night…read moreunforgettable. Food was delicious, and drinks were above and beyond.

    I finally tried Dirty Taco, at lunchtime because I've never not seen a crowd trying to get in at…read moredinnertime and I don't love the idea of waiting (to my knowledge, no reservations and no No Wait, sadly). I knew it had to be good and I was right. Cute interior, casual, pretty small so I am sure they have a high volume operation going on. It was a cold day, so no outside seating, obviously, but I'd love to come back and sit outside on a nice day. There's something about warm weather, tacos and cold margs that's super appealing, isn't there? I'd heard their vegan tacos were excellent and I was happy to see a wide selection of them. I tried the vegan chorizo as well as the Impossi-taco. Listen, there's no contest here. If looking for a meaty type of taco, go with the vegan chorizo (I believe it's housemade). I'm a spice-loving gal and it didn't seem spicy at all to me but I do realize there are people out there that might think it's spicy so that's a caveat. It's top tier, however, and the impossible was just something I can make at home (with a lot more spice-- it's lacking that here). I also ordered the black beans and rice, but I wouldn't order it again, as it was a small ramekin and I was too full to eat it anyway. Next time, guac, I'm coming for you. The sampling on my impossi-taco had me full of regret that I didn't get more of it! If you like sweet sangria, they've got you here. I didn't love it, way too sweet for me. I'll definitely try their other cocktails next time. Now, for the service. Gina is a rockstar! I see her name mentioned in reviews and you know when you see a name in reviews, that person is exceptional. Loved her. Actually everyone in here is so nice. It's refreshing.
