· Chips + Guac -
Tasted fresh & homemade. The guacamole was super good mixed w/ the passionfruit habanero sauce. Both needed a hit of salt & w/out the sauces, guac needed some acid. 4/5
· Potato Chorizo Taco -
Not very pretty as it arrives to the table, but fold that sucker over & dive in. SO GOOD. It is one note on texture, but it's yummy enough not to worry about it. Ordered this one on the fresh homemade flour tortillas, would do that every time! 4.5/5
· Skirt Steak Taco -
I was skeptical, from fellow yelper's photos, I noticed it lacks toppings (I love toppings!). Thinking it could be dry & low on flavor. Nope! I was impressed, it didn't need to hide-behind-a-thing. It's like, "That's right, I am literally just meat. In a tortilla. What?!" Not very photogenic but the meat was so juicy, cooked perfectly pink. Steak tastes like it's marinated for a couple of days, packed with garlic-y & bright chimichurri. Paired really great with the warm corn tortilla, too. Hubby mentioned how good the combo of corn/meat were. I agree, the flavors pair like Scooby & Shaggy. 5/5
· Salsas:
4 sauces arrive w/ your meal, mild to hot. My favorite by far was the hottest, the habanero passion fruit. Bottle that, I would buy it. My second favorite was the pico, more of a Pico de Gallo Verde. The sourness of the tomatillos made it an interesting & tart twist on pico. The 2 mixed were fire: tart, sweet, hot.
· Pineapple Jalapeno Margarita - Ordered it extra spicy. The lovely lady mixing drinks added a chili powdered rim to up the spice, which was my favorite detail because it made it interesting, otherwise it was very sweet. Mine had 3 jalapeños; I was still looking for some heat & tequila flavor. The pineapple wipes out a lot of that. Next time, I'll give the chili mango a try, which they recommended to me originally. 3/5
· Fruity Pebbles Churro -
Yes! It's a little dangerous that these are available close to home. 5/5
Service was welcoming. It's a fast casual set up, where you order at the register and orders arrived at the table. The ladies were great at explaining what each dish was, gave some recommendations - like upping the heat on the drink for me. They waited for our mains to be done before bringing out piping hot churros. Much appreciated as they were fresh and warm instead of sitting out while we ate our dinners 1st. They can tweak a couple of things, but overall the simple menu, the flavorful & filling tacos, their vegetarian and lo-carb options, their beer menu is awesome and service is warm & on point- it's a 4.75 from me so let's round up :)
...oh yeah, don't forget to ask them about their quesadillas!
