Great spot for some awesome Mexican food as well as some amazing Korean fusion as well the shredded beef kalbi was a personal favourite, along with the baja fish taco, great selection of craft beer in the fridge but ended up having a Partea “hard tea” instead which was a great choice along with a few tacos
We always come back for the spicy fried chicken tacos and it never disappoints. Finally posting a review after coming back at least 8 times there because they definitely deserve it! They also have deals during the week depending on days
After a month in Vietnam I was craving Mexican food - this might be the longest I've ever gone without it! I was prepared to be disappointed (Mexican outside of Mexico/select parts of US can be... interesting...) but ended up blown away at how good the tacos were here! They even do Taco Tuesday, just like back home ❤️ (125k for any 3) I got the seabass, shrimp, and kalbi beef, as well as the chili con carne tostada. Portions were very generous! Everything was delicious! The tostada was my favorite, but everything was really really good. The taco are on what appear to be homemade flour tortillas (tho will note they were dense not fluffy, curious what they use for the burritos). I was extremely happy betting on this place! If I was in town longer, I'd prolly go a couple times. Staff was also super sweet and the place was super cute! Sit upstairs for a stronger breeze.
I just happened to stop by and try this place, but the vibe was totally my thing. I loved it!
