    The atmosphere is great! The servers were kind; however, inattentive. The menus were filthy and covered in old food. Drinks were terrible. The guacamole was amazing. All other food quite mediocre. Typical Riverwalk tourist trap.

    The restaurant has potential! Pros: Foods very good. Cons: Service is just ok but because they were short handed. Not sure if management has it that way or because no one wants to work. Cleanliness should be a lot better, being the price of the food and where it's located. Drink are very good but a little to pricey. Can be an overcharge or economy 🤔 we won't be going back unless these things are changed.

    The decor everything was on point inside the building was beautiful, we got our table right next to the band where the host person sat us outside, which was next to his speaker was not good. He had a lot of feedback and was pretty much volume was on max, we couldn’t enjoy the outside experience. The chicken mini taco were good but my asada tacos when I received them were cold not even warm. The drinks from the bar were great.. We live here in San Antonio and would try it again to give it another shot to see how it goes. I alway recommend people to this restaurant since it’s new.

    The food is expensive, in small portions and overall not well made. The restaurant decor is neat but that’s about it. Spend your money somewhere else.

    This is a hidden gem in the Riverwalk area. Unique decor and authentic Mexican tacos. Friendly service and excellent value for the money.
