The blood orange margarita was delicious. We also had barria tacos made with slow cooked lamb. Shrimp tacos, chicken enchiladas and a carne asada burrito. All the food was fresh, well seasoned and delicious. We started with quac and chips, I definitely recommend them. The vibe was fun and the service was spot on. Try it for a quick lunch or a yummy Mexican dinner.
