I would recommend skipping the food and sitting at the bar with a pitcher of margaritas! I would skip the Cabrito NO WAY was it worth $26 very small if two people want to share. We had pulled pork and fish tacos, they were average, nothing to brag about. My gfriend had the chicken since she does not eat meat, I am not a huge fan of any chicken dish, but this was good! The coconut rice was so good and should be offered as a side. But overall I would go just for the margaritas! We had a watermelon pitcher and it was fantastic. * there are a lot of other great date places..I say skip.

Went there after work w/ a few friends...wanted to try the best drinks they could make us and we weren't dissapointed. They take serious pride in their cocktail making. If the complementary chips and guac don't fill you up, order some of the small tacos to keep yourself upright(bartender Kwame tries his best to tip you over with his good yet well proportioned drinks)...

Finally! Great Food, Staff, cocktails and Atmosphere. I go for the green chili and margarita's. Beans can be a bit salty but other than that there isn't a bad dish on the menu. The person who wrote that the guac was too spicy is crazy, it's perfect. Great for groups.

If you're not interested in being wow-ed this is an ok place to grab a quick bite... definitely not overly appealing--- for one, the tables are covered in clear plastic, which is personally not my taste. The guacamole was ok but VERY spicy--- more so than I would say guacamole should be.... the tacos were mediocere and trying to be a bit too "fancy" for a whole-in-the-wall kind of place.
