Modern decor but the music echoed loudly from the hard surfaces. The cutlery needed a good polish, it was smudged all over. Ordered chicken fajitas, the chicken was tasteless. The peppers and onions were OK but no sizzle. The miniscule plastic cup of guacamole was OK but the waitress forgot it and then it arrived when the main dish was half eaten. We asked for flour tortillas but they brought corn. Should have known better the restaurant was nearly empty in an area where one would expect it to be alive. A lack luster experience! Not to be repeated.

Stopped in here after a Google search for Mexican restaurants near me. I arrived shortly after 11am and was promptly greeted and welcomed. I requested a booth or table back in the corner so I could read while waiting for my next doctor's appointment. My serve was extremely attentive and happily explained the menu. I ordered off the lunch menu. My server recommended the Birro taco plate. It came out more quickly than I expected. The tacos, charcoal beans, and rice were fresh and hot. The charro beans had a good flavor and were cooked well. The tacos were delicious! They had a spicy kick to them and the dipping sauce added to the flavor. I asked for some green sauce but that was not necessary. The tacos had enough kick to stand on their own. My server was very patient and polite and always greeted me with a welcoming smile. This was a wonderful surprise for lunch. I would eat here again.

Olivia is an amazing bartender, she’s always attentive and makes great drinks. Their food is incredible, I LOVE their asada tacos and the Violetta. I always have to visit when I’m in town, it’s such a great vibe. The inside is pretty and has a nice aesthetic. I wish I had a picture of the asada tacos before I absolutely destroyed them.

My only complaint was that this restaurant looks really dirty. The white/black tile floor looks like it has never ever been cleaned, and the round lights above the bar are filthy and dusty. Who knows what the kitchen looked like? Over the food was pretty good, but it just needs a good cleaning.
