| - Probably the best Mexican food I've ever had! And that's saying a lot because I'm not usually a big fan of Mexican food.
This place is tiny but has a few floors as well a couple of balconies. It's super trendy and fun however, and the food is great and decently priced. Some items like the corn ($10) are a bit expensive in my opinion for the portion.
Most of the party got the short rib tacos, these came on a crispy shell, I had the fish tacos which were in a soft shell, and you can order them singularly or in orders of 3. The tacos aren't quite a meal in my opinion, but accompanied by an order of the corn, split between two people and the guacamole and chips, I was stuffed.
The tacos are great, loaded with some nice fresh ingredients. I preferred my fish tacos to the short rib ones, the batter was light and crispy and came out piping hot, only to be cooled and freshened up by some crisp veggies and a great sauce. I'm not sure what the fish was however! The short rib were also great, the shell was crisp but not like a old El Paso taco kit, still had some flexibility to it so it didn't fall apart. The meat was flavourful and tender as well. The guacamole was delicious, definitely a must have, and the corn was also great, a bit spicy and a bit cheesy.
The restaurant is a great space, it looks like a house from the outside and it's ultra trendy inside, fun music and the service was great and friendly. Water glasses and drinks were filled constantly, however the glasses were quite small so they were being refilled a lot!
Overall a fun place to go with friends or a date. I would definitely come back for the fish tacos and guacamole. The octopus tacos looked pretty good as did the burritos, might be worth a try next time!
