I ordered birria tacos and a side of rice and beans. The rice and beans were good, but they brought it out 10 min BEFORE my meal. The birria tacos were OK, but much better the time before we dined. (Tacos were barely warm so that may be the reason they were just "ok". )Service was good. And so was the ambiance.

I had the spicy cucumber margarita that was delicious and the chicken mole enchiladas which were also delicious. The mole was better than most places and tasted very authentic. I also love the music and vibes of this restaurant. Can’t wait to go back and also try their happy hour!
