Pretty cool laid back place to happy a few tasty happy hour drink, which I would definitely recommend to do. The happy hour snacks are a steal, specially the taco flight, full side, half price and delicious. Nice open space, different areas to seat down. I sat on the bar, which was great. Music choice could be better.

I like what they've done with the place. We've been coming here since it was a different Mexican restaurant occupying the same space. So I was glad to see the change up of atmosphere from previously. Drinks were really good and the food was mostly amazing. My son thought the smash burger was really good, and my wife said her chicken enchiladas were also good. I ordered a carne asada special and while the fire roasted corn and potatoes were amazing. My steak was underwhelming, so much so that I only had about a quarter of it. Anyhow I'm sure we'll be back and I'll update then. Vegetarian options: Plenty of vegetarian options on their menu Kid-friendliness: Plenty of famlies dining the night were were there

The only good thing about this place was the presentation. The taste was very strange/sour and I love Mexican food and have been to tons of places. It didn't help that I found a big bone in the chicken of the chimichanga. To top it off, I looked at my electronic receipt now and found that I was double charged for my coke. This would be the last place I come back to.
