One of the best taco spots, with one of the best ambience in Costa Mesa! This spot has a full bar and turns into a lounge/dancing area towards the inside, towards the end of the day. There's outdoor and indoor seating on the beautiful terrace. No matter what Taco you get you're guaranteed an experience of flavor and mouthwatering tastefulness!
10/10 definitely recommend! We were seated within minutes, not even a minute later we have water, chips and salsa on the table. The chips AND the salsa were soo delicious and fresh! We let the waiter choose our first drink which was the pomegranate margarita 10/10! Then we had the pineapple plum drink 10/10 that one was my fave! We tried a few others but those were my top two! We then ordered their roasted corn and guac for appetizers and followed up with the sopes for entrees. Everything was hot and yummy! The food was amazing! The drinks were top tier! The service was extremely delightful. Prices were reasonable. The atmosphere was such a vibe and I definitely cannot wait to return.
Went for dinner, stopped by because of the cool ambiance. Very cool looking, chips and salsa were great. Worse chicken tacos, I've ever had in my life. It was a gross chicken patty deep fried then added a pound of cheap iceberg lettuce. Would recommend for drinks and that's it.
