Our first stop after arriving in Bad Homburg and it did not disappoint! Fantastic service, fun…read morevibes and atmosphere (live music), and delicious food. There was plenty of seating inside but I would encourage you to arrive near opening because it did get full quickly. It's also always good to walk there if you can because parking can be a little bit tricky in Germany! We ordered the three taco platter, chicken chipotle fajitas, and a veggie quesadilla. We also started off with some incredibly yummy chips and guacamole (pro tip: squeeze the lime on your chips before inhaling). Everything was great, the chicken fajitas were the star of the night though so be sure to order that if you're wondering what to get. Pulled pork was a little dry so I would pass on those personally, but the quesadilla was packed with so many yummy flavors and fried to perfection! TIPS & TRICKS: * For those coming from the states, heads up that water (sparking or still) and chips/salsa are not complimentary! But definitely worth buying, so don't forget to order both!

I had the chicken tacos and they were packed with flavor. The meat was well seasoned and didn't…read moretaste dry at all. I loved how they kept the toppings simple just onion, cilantro, and a splash of lime. The green salsa was fresh and had a nice little kick. The service was friendly and they made sure we had everything we needed. The outdoor seating was a nice touch too. Totally recommend this place for a solid taco fix.

Great waitress. Sabrina. Was very helpful especially to my Oma. Grandmother. She made sure she was…read morecomfortable with offering her pillows for her seat. Came around often enough to check on drinks. Not a Mexican restaurant like the U.S. BUT not bad. I ordered the 3 chicken tacos. Their salsa is not good. Needs to be fresh pico de gallo style. And chips were a bit stale. Guacamole needs to be made fresh also. Lacks freshness overall.

The service was friendly and quick. I do get it that the level of German tex-mex food is much lower…read morethan in the USA, so I'm not making any criticisms by comparison. My main problem with the food was the art and quality of what I was served. I ordered the pulled pork tacos. The tacos were barely warm and the filling was tepid. Obviously it was warmed up in the microwave.The pork wasn't pulled pork at all, as it had the consistency of mud.There was no taste of any spices or herbs at all. There was nothing Mexican about it. The salad, the size of thimble, had a bizarre aftertaste, a chemical taste that wouldn't go away once eaten. The margarita was the worst one I've ever had, and I've had a few. There was no tequila in it, and it was also tepid. The glass was half full, and it had the same chemical aftertaste. I've eaten in many different restaurants in my 60 years, all over the world. But this has to be one of the worst experiences I've ever had. I pity the people who choose to spend their money on poorly prepared, tasteless food.
