Note: the dining room can get loud when a DJ is playing or on busy weekend nights, so request patio seating or an earlier reservation if you want a quieter table.

Guests report generous appetizers (guacamole, street corn) and flavorful tacos, but some entrees and sides can feel smaller than expected for the price.
