From the moment we sat down, he was attentive, knowledgeable, and had great energy without being overbearing. He walked us through the menu, steered us toward the filet mignon taco (absolutely the right call - that crispy melted cheese with pistachio serrano salsa is unreal), and made sure we never had an empty glass. The food speaks for itself, the blue corn tortillas, the fresh guacamole, the whole vibe of the space but great service is what turns a good meal into a reason to come back. Colin is clearly someone who takes pride in what he does, and it shows. If you're going, ask for Colin. You won't regret it.

Had the Shredded Beef in my Crispy Taco and it was painfully dry meat, couldn't finish it. Just ate more of the shell. The rice and beans were good, chili Relleno not bad, but feel like the cheese could have been melted more. Enchilada had chicken in it and it was just ok. Food didn't have much flavor to it and everything needed salt. Service for food slow, but clearing plates and wiping down your table was very fast. Ambiance is nice and dark restaurant inside, but always get seated outside. It was very loud there too, hard to hear company. Plus had reservations at 6:30pm, but didn't get a table until 20 mins later, which doesn't make sense when you have reservations! Plus the calling out of names in a crowded area does not work well.

Employees were super helpful and very patient with the amount people there. Restaurant was very clean with seating inside and outside.

What a great find. I had not eaten at this place before, but it came highly recommended from a…read morefriend of mine so I thought hey I'm going to check this out. I am so glad I did, especially since it was happy hour. The place definitely has a great vibe to it. Plenty of seating throughout the restaurant. I recommend sitting at the bar as that's where all the action happens. You definitely want to make sure you get there for happy hour and Taco Tuesday especially, $10 Margaritas $4 tacos and these are not cheap tacos. These are like serious tacos that will fill you up. Their salsa is great, not super spicy and makes great for munching while you're talking with friends. The margaritas are definitely strong, which is nice, as some places tend to water them down for happy hour. I would say that this is a great choice to go check out and have a taco or two or three or four. I had the carne asada, the carnitas, and the pastor, every single one of them was perfect and the salsa that they came with was out of this world. Bottom line? This is a great place for Taco Tuesday as well as just a hangout and have a drink after work. Whenever I am in Costa Mesa. I am definitely coming here again.

This was a huge disappointment on Mothers Day. We made reservations for 4 and asked for a basic…read moredetached table. When we arrived, we were shocked to see they were going to squeeze us into someone else's table filled with people that could not comfortably seat four additional people next to them . Horrified we requested what we originally booked and they said NOTHING accept they were REALLY BUSY and pointed us to the outdoor fire pits with no proper chairs or seating just a firepit to put a child to sit in front of. At this point zero management came to address this and zero servers as we asked for one . We were completely ignored . We were so hungry we just sat down desperate and starving. There was no omlette bar. (I was told on the phone there was an omlette bar before booking ) No sauces to go with any food. Dried up scrambled eggs and just a few dishes to choose from this 'buffet'. The ONLY salad dressings they had (2) were super sweet (no ranch) nothing . No flavor . Their non meat dishes were just one horrible dried up bean and grain pattie obviously frozen out of a box even an animal would never eat . It was that bad . Their 'replacement ' for almost zero dishes was a pancake ststion obviously to cut costs even more . The food was horrible . When you anticipate a special Mother's Day brunch that is horribly overpriced and get this in return its so disappointing and apalling .We were prepared to walk out after our bad news of no proper seating and terrible start but by then obviously we couldn't just go to another brunch on Mother's Day . Plus our other two guests were parking with a child so we were stuck. This was our only option or nothing. Its unbelievabke how am estsblishment can treat people like this especially on a soecial day like Mother's Day amd can command their pricing with no proper and safe seating for 4 with safe and healthy distancing with a fire pit as a SEAT. No apologies , no manager , nothing . just a terrible high bill, very little options and poor food quality . At best we should get a refund as this was false advertising and did not get a table for up to 4 . What an awful Mother's Day Brunch . We go out to eat EVERYWHERE around here but can't believe sonething like this can exist . So sad . This part of the day was ruined .

A consistently solid choice for an enjoyable dining experience.

My son loves the tacos alhambre, which is steak with bacon. He asks for the peppers on the side because they can be hot. My wife got the fajitas and they were good. I felt like there was a bit too much sauce -- for me, good meat should stand on its own. She also thought the beans were a bit salty. I got the enchiladas. They were good but not amazing.

I came on a Wednesday after work; I (and presumably others) was getting food on the way from work to eat at home. Otherwise if you want to eat here, your car is the ambiance and dining area. I got a burrito and some consomme, plus a quesadilla for the next day. The burrito was *packed* with beef and tasted super pleasantly meaty. I think I counted like six beans total and a bite of rice otherwise, pleasantly surprised by the filling ratios. Salsas were tasty and pleasantly spicy, consommé was flavorful and just oily enough. If you take something home I highly recommend crisping it up in a pan before inhaling. I was in and out in about 15 minutes with no line. Two huge freshly made items plus a medium consommé (which is about the size of a medium soft drink) was about $30. When it gets busy you'd probably be better off calling in an order and picking it up. I'm looking forward to the quesadilla for dinner later on, and I'll definitely be back.
