| - On first arriving, I was really confused by the parking situation.. I was informed by the valet guys that I was not supposed to enter off of Central?!? and that I could not park myself even though the lot was empty...?
My party was seated right away. The place is so dimly lit that the two older folks I had with me complained they couldn't see. Haha, old people. I could see fine, but it was a hair too dark and one measly table candle didn't help much. The salsa that came out with the chips was smoky chipotle and not good to me, instead of offering to bring me a replacement when I asked about other options, the waitress suggested that I buy other types of salsa :( rude. I did and I wasn't impressed with those either.
I had The Standard tacos, they were very good. One person in my group got the carne asada tacos and mouth fulls of fat, I guess the chef didn't trim it close enough. They excluded his meal from the bill :)
The hipster staff was indistinguishable from the patrons, they also weren't the friendliest servers I've had either.
The atmosphere was fun though, and a nice contrast to the neighboring restaurants. I think this place would make a better bar than restaurant.
I am a local, and if I'm looking for great tacos, I'm not going here, there are lots of other places in town with way better mexican food. I would come here again for drinks and atmosphere, and maybe a taco to offset the alcohol ;)
