great watermelon margarita had the Mexican corn so delicious also had combo enchilada taco an d chimichanga too much so only could eat the taco was decent
I drove by this past weekend and saw this place was packed so we decided to stop by for dinner tonight so glad we did food was fabulous fresh ingredients in every bite. The atmosphere was festive. Wait staff and service was cordial and prompt even answered all questions regarding our food options. They sang happy birthday to a table near us. I'll be back next visit to Milwaukee.
My first time coming Here. The red salsa taste just like tomato pace it's was like opening a can of tomatoes ????so disappointed. The only good thing we had was the corn in a bowl and the fajita meat!! Fajita had a lot of flavor..also it took them a while when there wasn't alot of customers dining in..and I had to get up and look for any waiter. but I wouldn't come back to this spot..
