I'm picky when it comes to Mexican. Even highly recommended spots have been hit or miss. But i really had a great experience here! Great Mezcal, the burrito grande was amazing, and the service was top notch. Highly recommend!

The best Mexican food I have ever eaten! Great Margaritas which were authentic and strong, not a huge goblet of sweet and sour mix. The Tamales were our favourite, delicious flavour and texture and great side dishes. Big portions, amazing staff, reasonable price and great flavour!

The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful. No stars lost on them. The food was good, nit great. The Chirozo is bland and boring. I was looking for something with a kick and barely got flavor. On to the bathroom situation: really? About the size of an airplane John, except in here you have friends "hanging around." Maybe the few people who think Hochul and Biden were a good idea are ok with this arrangement, but it's gross and so are they. Speaking of Hochul, the free entertainment she allows on her streets was less than welcome. My guess is when one of the CRIMINALS (ie the oPpReSsEd) loses control and kills a kid, the bike will be to blame. I prefer not to wait around to find out. I'd wait forever, as nary a car of police presence was present during the 7 times these perpetuations of a stereotype paraded past us. Kid-friendliness: Don't bring your family here if you'd like to eat outside. Between the bikes stunting, the locals blunting, and the homeless hunting you are best t
