Food and service was amazing. I'd recommend buying food for the table and sharing with everyone

Best meal of the Austin trip: upscale tacos and housemade masa in a welcoming space. Food: 5 Service: 4.5 Atmosphere: 5 Cost to worth it rating: 3 Opentableable: yes Return worthiness: yes Highlights: - Waitress Kelly was wonderful and so professional. She noticed I was ordering dairy items on side and asked about if pesto in guacamole was ok. So astute and kind of her. Also on my friends second drink remembered she didn't want salt or her rim without even asking - Everything tasted so fresh and high quality - Brisket tacos: packed with flavor--maybe it was the wagyu meat or the black magic oil. Freshly made corn tortillas were awesome. Usually corn ones and pretty throwaway meh, but these added to the greatness of the tacos. 5 stars - Duck flautas: crispy covered in mild mole. Loved the mashed potato addition inside for some mellowness and texture. 5 stars - Guacamole: so fresh and that dollop of pesto on top was lovely. Served with crispy masa dippers were impressive almost a 8x11 page size. It was fun to crack off into pieces, but hard to stop eating it. 5 stars - Sweet potato: friend loved these long charred wedges. 4.5 stars - Cocktails were stellar. I got the Don Dario which was a play on a marg and delightful - $12 of a few drinks during lucky hour (Mon-Fri 5-6pm, Sat-Sun 3-5pm) - High energy vibes in a clean, open, tan colored space - Had their bottle water on the table in a champagne bottle which speaks to my heart Midlights: - In East Austin so have to Uber if you are staying more central - Tacos come in orders of 4. Wish it was less so we could've tried more variety. Lowlights - No food discounts for lucky hour - Didn't have time to try the choco taco which looked amaze - Large gap of time between items first few items coming out and the rest read more

We ended coming here since there was no wait on a Sunday night. It was buzzing and the place was busy. We only tried a few options since we weren't that hungry. Of course you have to get their signature tacos which were tasty. My Nephew loved his steak & frites. It was cooked just the way we wanted it. Overall, we were glad we tried this place out. SYOY! read more

We came to Suerte for a date night. We don't eat out very often because honestly, most of the food we get out, we can make ourselves at home but better. Every single dish at Suerte was completely worth it. The family-style ordering was great because my partner and I got to delight in each dish together. The portions were clearly intentionally sized: nothing too big, but also nothing too small. And each bite had us both sitting and often closing our eyes to fully experience the food. We spent just as much time not talking as we did talking. The food did a lot of talking for us And when we were talking, it was either to one another, or to our server, Jake. Lemme tell ya, knocked it out of the park. His timing was on point. He never hovered, and he practically appeared out of nowhere when our need for him arose. I literally said to him at one point: "your timing is impeccable!" He was delightful, funny, knowledgeable, and very easy to converse with. Our visit would have been wonderful with the food alone, but Jake made the experience particularly memorable. Thank y'all - especially Jake and the chefs - for such a wonderful (and rare for us) date night. read more

I was so excited to try Suerte. Literally top of my list... and maybe my expectations were too high, maybe it was just a bad night but not sure I'll be back. We asked for water twice-did not receive Waiter dropped a drink all over me on my dress and shoes at the table Wasn't thrilled with the order and were ready to go but instead were brought more food - sad to waste! And cherry on top-there's a duplicate charge on our card for this very problematic dinner Michelin isn't all it's cracked up to be at every location I guess. Really sad this didn't meet what I was looking forward to. read more

Yesterday was Cinco de Mayo and how do you let this highlighted time of the year escape without celebrating. I met a friend at Suerte for a late bite and drinks...our first time there. Suerte is a contemporary Mexican restaurant in East Austin led by Chef Fermín Núñez. The restaurant is known for its house made masa, regional Mexican techniques, and a mezcal drinks. We both got margaritas and shared an appetizer. The drinks were ok but not distinctive for the price. I actually could not taste the tequila in my margarita...felt like drinking margarita mix. Our server, Mimi, said it was because the tequila was so smooth. The lamb appetizer was also ok. From the street Suerte looks like a medium size restaurant. However, when you walk in you are surprised by its large size. The restaurant was packed with people when we arrived and had about 200+ people occupying the tables. You could also see the kitchen staff preparing food in the openly viewable kitchen. The atmosphere was chill with dim sconce lighting and modern architecture. In addition, there is limited parking on the side of the building and street parking. I heard nothing but good things about Suerte and was looking forward with great anticipation to try the restaurant. To be transparent, I was a little disappointed. read more

Brunch at Suerte was a HIT! I brought family who were in town visiting to Suerte as our farewell meal and it was perfect. It was also my first time eating there and all I can say is I can't believe I wanted so long! The vibe was great, and our waiter Jules was lovely. We ate a ton of food and it was all delicious. The stand outs for me were the guacamole, the tuna hibiscus aquachile, the suadero tacos & the pan de elote. But truly there was no bad bite. I will definitely be back to Suerte! read more

This place lived up to the hype! Great location on 6th st to sit outside, people watch and grab dinner. Loved the entire vibe of the restaurant. Service was quick, attentive and always there when I needed them. Food: Suadero Tacos are a must. Incredible and would order these again and again Guacamole- a bit pricy but delicious. Tres Leches- pearls were good but I wasn't a fan. Incredible spot and I would highly recommend adding this place to your list read more

On my recent trip out to Austin we had a night out on the East Side and were able to snag a reservation at Suerte through OpenTable thanks to Sapphire Reserve Exclusive Tables, a perk of my Chase Sapphire Reserve card. Suerte is known as one of Austin's top restaurants serving up incredible Mexican flavors. The service and food were great, and my favorite bites were the Suadero Tacos and Sopes Campechanos. Honestly, there wasn't a bad bite the entire meal and the cocktails were just as impressive. I finished things off with a Nitro Carajillo and Tres Leches Cake, both the perfect ending to an excellent meal. I'd highly recommend checking them out if you haven't already. read more

Third or fourth time here (and we live an hour away). Soooo good! We ate "outside" this time. They keep it very comfortable even when it's cold out. The music is great. The food is fantastic. The drinks are amazing. Not inexpensive but reasonably priced and well worth every penny. Our bill came to $300 for the four of us, and that included appetizers, drinks, entrees and dessert. I highly recommend family style eating here to taste more of the menu. We order different items on every trip. But we always get the Suerte tacos (four to a plate). Everything is extremely scratch made. I mean... they don't start with masa... they start with corn. Everything made with lovev and expertise. There were at least 10 chefs in the kitchen and a the bar was full of bartenders. Everyone was busy and productive. Their vegetable dishes are outstanding, too. We had the most amazing cucumber salad last time and this time we had sweet potatoes that were shockingly good. And the drinks. OMG. So good! See the pictures. Last time we had a chocko taco for dessert. This time we had the Oaxaca dessert, which was their take in a baked Alaska. So yummy! We really love this place! read more

I'd honestly go back to Austin just for this place. Soo good!!! It was our first time visiting Austin and a couple of friends highly recommended this restaurant so we knew we had to go. They're known for their masa (IYKYK), which meant we had to try a little bit of everything. We started with the mini sopes de chorizo, absolutely amazing! For entrées, we ordered the Suadero tacos (their most popular item for a reason), the Carnitas, and the sweet potato that our waiter insisted we couldn't skip. All I can say is WOW. This food will actually leave you speechless. Trust me, even if you're not a sweet potato person, if it's on the menu, you MUST get it. Make sure that you save room for dessert. We tried the tres leches with dulce de leche and the chocotaco and both are a solid 10/10, fire. The space is big but very busy, so definitely make a reservation ahead of time. And shoutout to our server Elijah, who was honestly the highlight of the night. Perfectly sarcastic (the good kind), gave great recommendations, and his attention to detail was unmatched. Can't wait to come back someday, I'm already thinking about it. read more

The atmosphere and customer service were great. Parking is limited on site, BUT there is a parking garage across that street and I only paid $5 (Suerte's validation took $3 off). I got the Suadero Tacos. The Wagu beef could have been much more tender, but the avocado crudo was amazing. It made the dish for me. Extremely flavorful and great texture. read more

I haven't had a bad dish at Suerte yet and always try something different when dining here. This time I definitely got out of my comfort zone and tried the chicken with mustard butter sauce. My thoughts...chicken was tender and cooked perfectly but i didn't fancy the mustard sauce. It wasn't bad and everyone else enjoyed the sauce but it wasn't for me. The aguachille was soooo damn good. Who knew strawberries and blue fin tune would pair so well together. The lentil dip is always a hit and can never go wrong with the brisket tacos! I'm excited to see what's on the menu next time I dine here! read more

Sister restaurant of Este, Suerte features a brunch focused menu with the same amazing service you expect at Este. I recommend the salmon tostada. It comes with cold, smoked salmon and a caper chile relish. I didn't get the spiced goat cheese, but be sure to ask for it. The frijoles con veneno is worth a try. The seared panela cheese with the refried beans make for an elevated bean and cheese taco. The veggie quesadilla is an absolute sleeper on the menu and it's a must try. The sweet papas is their grilled sweet potato option, but I wish they would do small smaller chunks of sweet potato. The milanesa torta was a nice touch featured on their homemade bolillo. Although it sounds kind of blasphemous, I wish they use chicken thighs instead. Their suadero tacos are the bangers of the menu. If you've had beef boti kebab, then you'll be at home with this belly filling fish. Super good! You also cannot go wrong with any of their pastries. You can either begin or end with them. read more

Oh my God the food was absolutely divine. While pricy, this place is a must-go at least once in your life to try a unique, high quality blend of authentic Mexican cuisine in a Texas theme. The staff was professional as you'd expect in an upscale place and me comfortable. For the pastries - do not be deceived by the cruller. The inside was moist and flavorful which contrasted the crunchy outside complimented by the simple cinnamon (masa) glaze. I will be getting this again to go :) The pastel and concha also tasted great and even better when paired with a drink. I haven't seen raspberry dust or a vanilla streusel in a coffee cake before. This was a new sweet flavor profile I haven't had before (it was good). Now onto the savory - every ingredient in the salmon tostada was fresh (similar to a Lox but not really). The chilaquilas verdes was fantastic with the unique mix of a refried egg, beans prepared with beef tallow to give layers to the flavors melting in my mouth I especially enjoyed the barbacoa tacos and the escabenche to compliment it. Hands down one of the best barbacoa tacos I've had. read more

This was such a lovely brunch with my friends. Mostly cause I was surprised by them highlighting my celebration on the menu. Such a sweet little detail. Me and a group of 3 others had a Sunday brunch here. Between arrival and leaving, it was a full 2.15 hour rendezvous so plan for parking accordingly. There are several pay to park lots around but cost ($15-30) since Suertes lot only accommodates 5ish cars. Between the 4 of us we shared 3 entrees and 2 apps. We were absolutely stuffed. The menu is constantly rotating so you may or may not have the same dishes if you return. We shared a guacamole which seems to be on the menu a lot, it is tasty and easy to nibble on throughout the meal. It also makes for a nice pairing with the tacos we had, suadero tacos which were confit brisket was so good. We also shared a brisket hash, chilaquiles rojos, and sweet potatoes ( spicy due to habanero oil) Overall we had a blast and will return. Loved the food, ambiance, and service. read more

This place is really pretty and has a great atmosphere. The main reason I came here was for the barbacoa, but I was a bit disappointed. It wasn't the authentic Mexican barbacoa I was expecting; it tasted more like smoked brisket. That said, it was still delicious, just not the texture or flavor I was hoping for. Another dish that also stood out was the suadero tacos they were very good and flavorful. Overall, it was a great experience, and I'd definitely come back if I'm around the area. read more

Suerte is amazing! I recommend booking a reservation while in advance as this is not exactly a hidden gem of Austin. The best way to enjoy square day is to bring a few good friends and try several different items on the menu. Their sweet potatoes were absolutely to die for! And I enjoyed sampling their different types of tacos. The service was friendly, and the food came out pretty quickly. read more

Had a wonderful dinner at Suerte! We walked in and got a seat at the bar. The restaurant is open and beautiful decor. The bartenders were AMAZING! They walked us through the whole menu and made recommendations and were super attentive all night. My order and ratings are below. Ceviche de Manzana - 10/10, I have had a lot of ceviche before and this is my top. It was incredibly fresh and the fruit was so juicy I could have eaten 10 more of these Suadero tacos - 10/10, this is what they are known for and really showcases their homemade masa. It had the best flavor and the meat was tender but crispy. It could have used some slight more heat to it but still incredible Tamal de Rajas - 10/10, the sauces on this were incredible and it had plenty of sauce which I loved. Again the masa texture and flavor was the star Chocotaco - 10/10, this brought me back to my childhood. My husband and I devoured this. Such a fun play on chocotacos and wasn't too overwhelmingly sweet and had good salty flavor from the nuts. read more

I've been wanting to try Suerte now for a couple of years, but the last couple times I've made reservations I had to cancel because we had different friends visiting from Mexico who both had a strict "No Mexican Food" rule during their visits (not because they didn't think ATX has legit Mexican, but more because they have Mexican food every day and are visiting America for American (and Asian!) food. Although we did go to Kerby Lane once for that "good ole American breakfast" and one of them did order chilaquiles anyway..but I digress... Finally was going to brunch at Suerte and I was trying to moderate my expecations due to how hyped Suerte is. Was not needed at all. We were all blown away by how good the food was! The three of us got the suadero tacos, pozole, brisket hash, tuna hibiscus aguachile, and a conchita to go. This place is legendary - the food was all incredible, although the pozole might have had a little more fat in it than was expected. Can't rave enough though about the tacos and brisket has (corn tortillas are amazing0. The tuna was like a mexican verison of Nobu's yellowtail sashimi and it was bonkers. The vibe and decor was beautiful and the service was great. This is one of those places, especially because we were being cool in East Austin that makes you say, Wow, Austin really is an incredible place. I can't wait to go back to Suerte, and I will bring friends/family for sure because it truly is a great representation of ATX and a fantastic meal. read more

Dropped in on a whim after getting back from a flight. We were jonesin' for some Mexican food after being away. This spot for the bill and we were blown away. The staff is friendly and very knowledgeable. They knew the menu inside and out and made great recommendations. To call the suadero tacos an upscale version of street tacos is a disservice. They were amazing and so flavorful. The Tlayuda De Hongos was the best flauta style dish you could ask for. The bartender suggested a green salsa and lime to brighten the dish and it elevated completely. We barely missed happy hour, but probably good since we would have taken advantage of the delicious looking cocktails and might have needed a ride home. The menu is small but cultivated and honed to a perfect razors edge. Can't wait to take friends to the place when they come visit. Final note, even on a Monday night, make sure you call ahead for a reservation. read more

I made a reservation at this restaurant because it's part of the Chase Sapphire reserve dining collection, which helps also offset some of the costs. This is a nice restaurant and would otherwise run about $150+ for two ppl. The plates appear to be designed to be shared tapas style, and following the recommendations of the server, we ordered about one dish per section of the menu. We started with the ceviche, which is probably one of the best things of the night. Big chunks of snapper, nestled among chunks of grapefruit and apple, all sitting in a very refreshing citrusy juice. This appetizer feels very light and is perfect to start the meal off. There was no cracker or chip to eat the the ceviche with, which felt a little weird at first. However, by the end of the meal I had had so many corn tortillas that I'm glad that the start of the meal did not have any additional starch. Next, we had the huitlacoche quesadilla and this famous suadero tacos. I loved the suadero tacos more, and my partner loved the quesadilla more. The tacos come piled with a good amount of wagyu brisket and the flavor is super well developed with both fattier bits and crispier bits. The fattiness was nicely offset by the tangy avocado and the little onion bits in it. I don't normally prefer corn tortillas, but these were excellent and you could tell they were freshly made. At the same time, I wouldn't say they were my favorite tacos in all of Austin. The quesadilla came with a charred onion sauce on the side, which was delicious but also should be used sparingly because it could overpower the quesadilla otherwise. The asada main dish was really well prepared. Perfectly pink meat with a super charred crust that made everything taste just a little bit smokey. Which reminds me, the Rosa peligrosa was delicious-- mezcal base so it is smoky but balanced well. The Luna sangre mocktail was also very well balanced and not too sweet due to the quinine added in. Finally, we loved the tres leche which seemed like it was probably the best value as it was surprisingly large. Overall, this was a really nice restaurant for a special occasion. Each ingredient is treated well and allowed to shine without over complicating things. There are about 15 or so parking spots right outside the restaurant that is free, otherwise you'd have to find parking on the street or nearby paid lots. We got lucky and found a free spot on Tuesday at 8pm. read more

I could have sworn I had written something for Suerte. 10/23/2025 We happened to be in town and thought we'd check out some nearby businesses. Apparently one of the chefs had created a smashburguesa we were looking for so the only thing I had remembered from the article was the fact that they mentioned 'Suerte'. While we didn't go to the right spot, it definitely was a spot truly worth going to. We were there for the weekend and the restaurant had just opened up for the evening so we were seated right away. The vibe and ambience did not disappoint at all. Our server was really nice and offered some suggestions and we just went with it. Drinks: Don Dario Negroni Bahia Rosa Peligrosa We ordered the Tuna Hibiscus Aguachile! We missed having a tostada, so the waitress was really nice to us and brought one out and it was chef's kiss! Sopes which were bite sized but surprisingly delicious! Tetela Flautas con Mole Negro - We had to order it because of the duck confit! Also another hit with us! Barbacoa - they were good! Don't let the size fool you! Once they were unwrapped, we were definitely full! For dessert, we had the Chocotaco! Brought back some nostalgia for me. Oh, the waitress also helped us celebrate a birthday, so the cookie that was brought out with a candle was the icing on the cake. I will definitely come back next year! Parking was easy for us since we found a spot at the restaurant, but there is plenty of street (paid) parking. read more

Pro tip: Lucky Hour is very day, Mon-Fri between 5&6 PM and Sat-Sun between 3&5 PM with great deals on cocktails, wines, and any pour of mezcal, tequila. Or destilado. Reservations highly recommended! Let's get the one 'annoyance' out of the way. Ooooh, pricey. The Tetela was VERY delicious!! Prime ingredients for sure. But when it was brought to the table, I couldn't help but think about (for $20) how it was at least half the size of what my abuela would make for a quarter of the price. The flautas are more of an appetizer, and prized at $24. Without a doubt, the price does give some indication of the quality to expect. And the quality is 10/10. From tequila and mezcal cocktails to specially curated kasa dishes and sauces, your taste buds will be so grateful. Chefs, amazing job! I can't wait to come back. Just gotta save up a bit for the next visit. read more

Of course Suerte is a highly rated and award-winning restaurant for a reason! It's one of the city's very best. It can get very crowded and parking is atrocious; but if you can get a coveted reservation you're in for a treat! The tacos are hard to beat and all of the crudo/ceviche dishes are stellar. They pack a punch and my only complaint is that they don't come with more! Anything with their negro salsa is my absolute favorite. The barbacoa entree is my least favorite that I've tried. It was not very memorable. The carnitas one is also a great plate. If you like this place you'll definitely enjoy Este as well. read more

Suerte absolutely delivered on every level and made our anniversary celebration feel extra special. When we arrived, there was a bit of an issue due to us being late to our reservation. But, the hospitality stood out - the manager was incredibly attentive and checked in thoughtfully, and our waiter was genuinely friendly and knowledgeable. Every dish was jam-packed with flavor, the kind that makes you pause after the first bite. You can tell a lot of care goes into the food here. It was definitely worth the wait, and once you're seated, the entire experience flows seamlessly. The drinks were just as impressive - well-balanced, creative, and the perfect complement to the meal. Anniversary meals come with high expectations, but our meal and overall experience did not disappoint. If you're looking for a spot that feels both celebratory and memorable, this is it. Easy 5 stars. We can't wait to come back! read more

My fiancé's parents were visiting and we decided to try Suerte to celebrate our engagement. We'd never been before, so expectations were high -- sadly, those expectations mostly weren't met. We arrived right at 5 pm (exactly our reservation time) and were seated immediately, which was good. The ambiance inside is really cute and it is well-decorated. Our server, Brandon, was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. The drinks were mostly solid -- I had the Rosa Peligrosa, and that was tasty. However, the food fell short in many ways. We started with the guacamole. The portion was small, and the chips were so hard that trying to break off pieces was more work than it should have been. Next we ordered the Tuna Hibiscus Aguachile, and that was one of the few hits: the sauce was excellent, and the server kindly brought soft tortillas so we could dip into what remained. That made that dish more enjoyable. The suadero tacos were probably the best thing we ordered -- flavorful, nice textures -- though pricey: four tiny tacos for $25 felt steep. Unfortunately, many of the other dishes were disappointing. The Milanesa de Pescado was dry and bland. The flautas lacked filling (my piece had just cheese, despite the menu listing meat). The carnitas were also dry and tough to get through. Two of us couldn't finish our serving of them. All told, we were underwhelmed. Given how much hype this place has, we left feeling: "Is that it?" We may not come back. If you go, maybe stick to the drinks, the tuna dish, and the suadero tacos -- those seem to be the strongest. read more

Came to Suerte for an anniversary brunch and it was a great choice. Solid food and good service all around. The environment was definitely more upscale but still causal. The Suadero Tacos were the highlight of the meal. You get the acidity from the guacamole, then the flavor of the meat, and it all comes together with the corn tortilla. I'd definitely recommend them. The Tuna Tiradito was really fresh. The salsa had a nice acidity that paired well with the tuna and the crispy tortilla chip. We also got the Brisket Hash which came with tortillas to build your own breakfast tacos. The brisket was delicious and cooked well. The frozen cocktail was light and refreshing, perfect for a hot day. Our waiter brought out a concha on the house for our anniversary which was a nice touch. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

For my money, the best restaurant in Austin. I know this may sound cliché, but every dish is absolutely fantastic - from something as 'simple' as the guacamole to the mouthwatering suadero tacos (get them and thank me later). They even have kitchen staff whose sole job is to make tortillas so they're always fresh, which shows their attention to detail. The service is always delightful - with thoughtful, charming, and considerate front of the house staff and, I'm certain, hardworking, proficient back of the house. The place is beautiful and the ambiance is perfect for anything from happy hour drinks to a special occasion. I brought my mom here for Mother's Day and we had a terrific time. I will absolutely continue celebrating every special occasion here. read more

I made a reservation at Suerte to enjoy the weekly Lucky Hour from 5-6 p.m. with discounts on alcohol and libations. Suerte is a restaurant inspired by the people, cooking techniques, and flavors of Mexico. I was particularly interested in the $10 signature cocktails. My reservations were for outside on the patio but the staff moved us inside because it was so hot. The restaurant has a relaxing Santa Fe decor vibe with a lot of lovely dried flower arrangements and wall tapestries. My favorite margarita is the Don Dario with reposado tequila, tamarind, sarsaparilla and lime. We also tried the Sandía Cooler. Took advantage of the lucky hour special and had an assembly line of drinks. We split several items from the Masa Y Mass section of the menu including their specialty Suadero Tacos with confit wagyu brisket, black magic oil, avocado crudo, onion and cilantro. Had the black magic oil on the side to control the spiciness of the dish. The meat is so tender and has a great flavor with the avocado on top. Also ordered Costra de Res which is a braised short rib y cabesa, salsa brava, quesillo costra, onion and cilantro. All the veggies looked super appealing on the menu so we ordered all of them. I have had Peaches Y Feta before with caskey orchard peaches, feta, basil, hoja santa green goddess, sesame. This is probably one of my favorite items on their menu. The Ejites a la Parilla grilled green beans, okra, shishitos, costeño macha, lime had a bit of bite to it but was very tasty. The Cerviche de Tomate cherry y heirloom tomatoes, cucumber, pickled tomatillo, agua de tomate, chile oil was a hit with the sauce being so flavorful that we wanted to keep it and use it with other dishes! We had a bit of a miscommunication with the server and 2 of our veggies didn't get ordered, but it was cleared up quickly. Other than that, attentive and friendly service and was patient with me when my plus one did not arrive on time. Always enjoy my dining experience at Suerte for its use of local ingredients from local farmers to achieve something delicious and uniquely East Austin. read more

I'll start off my saying it is quite expensive and in my opinion overpriced for Mexican food BUT the food truly was delicious. The ceviche and birria were my personal favorites and my boyfriend loves the carnitas. The servers truly went above and beyond though.

I am PRAYING that Norteno Steakhouse becomes a thing all of the time. Suerte is always our go to (Este too) and the pop up event was another home run. The food was excellent and flour tortillas?

Suerte had been on my list for a while, and while I'm glad I finally got to try it, it didn't quite live up to the hype for me. The ambiance is beautiful and the overall vibe is spot-on--modern, lively, and definitely feels like a special night out. Service was genuinely great--our server was attentive and kind, and the whole team moved with professionalism. The food, though, felt a little underwhelming for how much it's talked up. Everything was fresh and nicely plated, but the flavors were simpler than expected. There was a bit of a mishap--our busser accidentally spilled black beans down my friend's white dress shirt. Not ideal, but to their credit, they were super apologetic and offered to cover the dry cleaning, which we really appreciated. Overall, it was a decent experience and I'm glad I went, but I'm not sure I'd rush back. read more
