   The concept for bottomless tacos is great, however, actually getting those tacos in a reasonable matter was tough. I started off with a couple of tacos delivered to me (before the appetizer—which didn’t arrive for a long time). I didn’t get anymore tacos until 40 mins later and was told to “flag down staff walking around”—which was a rare siting the night I was there. I wasn’t able to snag more tacos till almost an hour later. My friend arrived and she ordered veggie tacos and waited almost 50mins for them. Our margarita flights didn’t arrive till after hour and half of us dining. For the price, it kind of diminished the experience. The tacos were good though.

   Tacos were cold. Services was slow. We waited 30 minutes for our second round and decided to pay our tab and leave. 2nd round never arrived. The tacos were not worth the time and money. The drinks had a terrible aftertaste. We won’t come back.

   Possibly the worst restaurant experience I’ve had in a long time. I will preface this review with the fact I went during a taco Tuesday deal. Two and a half hours later and wasn’t able to put a drink order in, order any food, etc. When we got food it was great. Not worth it. Was begging to close out and go somewhere else. I will not be back. If you choose to go, go when there isn’t a promotion running. The kitchen can’t handle it and maybe they need more staff. Our table of 4 was hungry and barely ate! Bummed at how management handled it. Anyways, go at your own risk.

   I went for restaurant week. The value was really good as we got a ton of food. I didn’t really care for the bang bang shrimp tacos because they were plain but everything else was really good. The service was also really good.

    The place itself has a nice and simply decor , with bar seating, high top table seating and regular table seating, plus an outdoor seating with heated Igloos, very nice touch! I had the chicken parm quesadillas they were good, I also had the truffle street corn guacamole it very good, the chips were fresh and very good, the rojo and verde salsas were very good, the regular margarita very good not watery and tasteless. That corn bread with jalapeno baked inside was delicioso! My husband had the onion soup he really liked it, he had a taco salad with beef , but didn't like it, I think it was because they used kale greens instead of just lettuce, and had no cheese or sour cream in which I'm sure he could have asked for. Overall good eating!!
