Their chicharron tacos in green salsa taste just like mom made them, and all their meats have a flavor you have to hunt down and go through 5-10 different spots to find them in other cities. Service is friendly, and the establishment is what you want a good Mexican restaurant to look like. The TV playing '90s Mexican music videos was a nice bonus. This is the best Mexican food in Milwaukee, the closest thing to it, and probably still falling short would be Atotonilco in Chicago. Don't overdo the brats, and head on over here for delicious and authentic Mexican food.

Food: For drinks, we started with a couple of mojitos, a margarita, and a paloma. Everyone was happy with their orders. Really surprised by how good all the food was. We started with guacamole and chips and a salsa flight. The chips were hot, right out of the fryer. The guac was well seasoned and had excellent texture. The salsa flight was interesting and added a bit of fun to the start of the meal. For the meal, we had a couple of orders of sopes (one al pastor and the other vegan chorizo), a trio of tacos (shrimp, beef, and chicken), and I got the Birria Fajita. Everyone enjoyed their food, with one exception: the chicken taco was a bit spicier than expected. Someone else finished that off. The side order of beans was just okay, but the rice was excellent. Good texture, with a good balance of seasoning. Because it was a birthday, they provided a complimentary piece of chocoflan cake, which was the best I've ever had. The chocolate cake base really complements the custard texture of the flan. We also got an order of churros, which came out fresh and warm. Eating them with the side of vanilla ice cream was a real treat for the rest of us. Service: Started out great! Menus, drinks, water, and appetizers all arrived promptly. Given how few people were in the restaurant, it took a while for the food to arrive--45 minutes after we ordered. My meal was also missing the side of beans and rice. After I mentioned that and the server apologized, I still had to remind them that I was waiting. The sides arrived well past the point when they would have been enjoyable with my meal. The server apologized again, and they volunteered to comp our desserts. At least someone recognized that the service had fallen short. Atmosphere: For a Mexican restaurant, the interior design is refreshing. Not your typical loud colors with sombreros. It has a hip feel to it, with accents of lime green floor tiles, collections of small framed pictures, pink vinyl chair coverings, and white globe light fixtures. It might be a little jarring for some tastes, but I thought it all worked together. Really enjoyed the food and the atmosphere. I hope the service we had isn't representative of what normally happens. The food was good enough that I would give it a second chance.

We got the classic guacamole $15 and then salsa $12. Both were average grocery store level. The whole time I was cold. They were very good about allergies and friendly, maybe awkward. The music was a bit dramatic, but if there were more people maybe it would have been more subtle. For a Mexican place the prices were much higher than normal. It was a little strange - right as we were about to leave they started removing everything instead of waiting one more minute; we had been there for a while. -Enmolada very good. Somewhat sweet, decently "chocolate". Some building heat. -The elote is okay. Maybe somewhat wet and needs to be mixed. -Shrimp fajitas were very good with more assortment of vegetables than normal. $29 -The rice was a bit dry. The beans were plain but healthy tasted.

The menu features small bites, chicken, loaded fries, and they have specials too. I ordered at the counter and got a text once my food my was ready. There's plenty of seating inside the brewery and the interior is unique because it used to be a church. Don't quote me on that but I'm pretty sure it was at some point. Anyway, I had to try the birria egg rolls because there was a ton of signage. First, they were quite large. The exterior had a great crunch and the interior was stuffed full of delicious birria, mozzarella, and chihuahua cheese. The ancho chipotle aioli was nice and smoky and paired well with the eggrolls. Definitely recommend and I wish I lived in the area because I could make a meal out of just these. I also tried one of the specials, the Chicken Tinga eggrolls. Again, they were bigger than expected, had a delicious, crispy exterior, and was stuffed full of chicken tinga and queso. It was served with a side of crema. Perfect pairing and I might have enjoyed these slightly more than the birria ones. I highly recommend that you check them out. I'm jealous that I don't live closer because we don't have a place like this in KC. They are definitely a unique place with delicious food.

And don't forget to take a tour of one of this country's most beautiful cathedrals. Right there by Don Luchos. You can eat here. Lots of long communal tables so don't be shy. Prices aren't cheap but this is quality. I usually get a pound or so of carnitas. They measure it out, it's steaming, and ask if you want it chopped. I say yes. It's wrapped up tightly and it will feed you all weekend. This meat is freaking amazing!!!! I pray they haven't run out of homemade tortillas, but like I said, you gotta come EARLY. Sigh. There's about 6 different amazing salsas to try. Smoky, fresh, green, red, hot sweet - I get two for the weekend. I consider a quart of menudo. I think about. Lamb, goat, barbacoa, chorizo - but I have enough. Too hungry to wait to go home, I sit down to eat. Two tacos - huge! The best was the barbacoa - tasty little carmelized deeply flavored meat bits. Hey - don't go expecting American extras like sour cream or cheese. This is the real thing. Warming: one taco will do you. Got a side of rice and beans - yum. Don Lucho is a treasure.

Management here must be a joke. Tonight went with a party of 4. We were seated and told once the fryer was good to go we'd be given the complimentary chips. Our waitress was also the bartender, so I can understand she was busy before I continue with everything else. We waited for over 30 minutes and still had not gotten chips. All the tables around us had gotten chips. They also received refills of chips. I stopped the other waitress and asked if we would be able to get some chips soon. Our waitress had been bartending and hadn't been by us for a while yet suddenly at that moment she appeared behind me and let me know that they were extremely busy and she had a lot to do and that I needed to be more UNDERSTANDING and had an attitude as she said it. It wasn't said with politeness or with customer service in mind. I wasn't rude to the other waitress. I didn't allude to the fact that it was our waitress's fault or put blame on anyone. I simply asked for chips because we had noticed them coming as refills and we hadn't even gotten our first batch. Our waitress was literally shaking as if she was ready for a fight while she sat her rant at me. I told her the aforementioned and she responded by saying those were the other waitress's tables and not that waitress's problem. SHE was our waitress and SHE was busy. Well, honestly, that's precisely why I asked the other waitress because I doubt running a tray of chips out would have been that big of a hassle for her and if our waitress was so busy that she couldn't run out chips I don't see why she had the time to hop on over to scold me like a child. Pretty sure she could have grabbed the chips and ran them out instead with a simple "Sorry for the wait." But that's alright... Now on to the subject of understanding. What she didn't ask and failed to understand was that there were two diabetics at the table, both of whom take medications. We've been to this establishment multiple times and have ALWAYS had long wait times but, because the food is good, we usually don't mind. Tonight however we just needed some carbs at the table because my sugat was dropping. Shame she didn't bother to be UNDERSTANDING although she was so adamant I should be. Also unrelated to her rudeness but they're always out of everything. Horchata is almost always out. Stuffed Poblanos and Posole were out because they don't get made in the summer apparently. I didn't know and I ordered some tonight. She was snarky about that, too. If your establishment doesn't make it then why is it on the menu? It should at the very least say it's a seasonal item. Don't come at me with that attitude because your establishment lists things they don't make year round. I'm not psychic. Maybe try to be more UNDERSTANDING of that. In short, the place's customer service has been waning. They can barely handle half a house. Then on top of it the bitch was rude. The other waitress for the record ran out half our stuff when it was ready. We made it clear to her that she wasn't our waitress at least when I was scolded by the other one that's what we were told. So she couldn't run out some chips but she could run everything else? Once again, pointless to scold me when you literally had her doing all YOUR work. In the end I didn't even get her name because one of us paid the bill and forgot to grab the copy. Otherwise I would have named her here. But it shouldn't be hard to pinpoint who it was since there were only 2 on duty, and I reiterate, this one was the one bartending. Also she didn't even offer us the end of dinner apple pie shots that were brought to everyone else. She obviously can't stay objective and instead decided to be abrasive. Hopefully this business does the right thing and corrects or gets rid of her rude ass and she learns to be more UNDERSTANDING and gains some humility.
