Reviews
Rarely do I find a place with flautas and while not as flavorful as the steak, the chicken is nice and spicy while the tortilla stayed crunchy after an hour and some green sauce taking it over.
Must like cilantro.
The service was subpar, mostly i think the waiter must have been having a bad day because he was lowkey rude and clippy the entire time. Asked for a recommendation on something and he was like “idk it’s fine”. I counted my money wrong and tipped him around 50% on accident which i only bring up cause if he he reads this, it was NOT because of you or your service which were horrible, but I guess I hope you appreciated the tip.
FOOD: it was bad. Our appetizer, the street corn style cheese dip was basically flavorless. It was BEGGING for salt and got nothing. We surmised that maybe the employee in charge of salting food must’ve been out sick. The chips were middling. We only got four tacos.
The potato taco? Mushy potato cubes, not salted, basically flavorless
The pork belly tacos? In desperate need of salt and sauce. The cubes pork belly itself was middling, like they were warmed rather than cooked to order.
The best taco was the brussels sprouts, weirdly, and that was because it actually had some sort of sauce on it.
The agua Fresca I drank was good, but it only served to remind me of all the incredible Mexican restaurants in Wyoming like 10-15 min away.
The atmosphere is good though. The prices are fine.
Outside there’s a nice seating area with gravel underneath your feet and several different ways of sitting with either bench seating or circular tables with a standard stools. They did have a nice cover over most of the outdoor area to keep you out of the sun or the tables had sun umbrellas to help and that was why we chose to sit outside.
Our server Claire was amazing and made sure that our food and drinks were not only on time but delicious as well.
The menu isn’t vast but it’s also not super expensive either. The ingredients were definitely fresh and most ingredients if not all are made in house which is a tough find these days. My two tacos and one drink was under $20 which is amazing for the service and the atmosphere that was provided.
I strongly recommend this place for a lunch or dinner atmosphere with a friend, partner, or family.
We had an issue when we were seated and didn’t get service for quite some time but once she arrived our server was very nice and did a great job.
Update 2025: The chips are still amazing and the shrimp tacos are amazing.
