Checked out this new Mexican restaurant and the food was delicious. The atmosphere was super cool with hand painted walls and fun and colorful decor. Even the hallway to the bathrooms was decorated.
Our server, Kate was very nice and helpful and even apologized when some items took longer than anticipated. Our margaritas were tasty and unique as and the rice and chicken kids meal was perfect .
With any new restaurant some kinks are being worked out but the value, atmosphere, and taste of the food was worth it. Even the frames around the televisions was a nice touch and different. There was authentic Mexican music being played and we got visited by the manger to check on us.
I’ll be back to enjoy a drink and food at the bar for sure.

This restaurant has a wide and varied menu with a fair amount of seafood and unique items that are not found at most Mexican restaurants like Birria Ramen. The food is consistently good, with good service, and some fun presentations.

First time – ordered Enchiladas Verdes. Had to send it back as every one of the tortillas was refrigerator cold. Waiter was attentive, second dish was ok, but everything just mashed together. I was charged $3.75 extra because I asked for a spicier salsa. Was not told about the upcharge and the waiter just blew it off when I questioned it. Doubt I will return.

We went in for drinks and appetizers. The margaritas were very good. The queso with beans is the best, huge portion. Also got guacamole which was very good, glad I only got a small.

Ordered the birria taco and the guacamole with chicharron. The guacamole was the best I have had in years. I have never had guacamole with pepita, but it was a nice added touch. I have never had birria taco before, and this was so delicious! Some of the meat was more tender than others, but still delicious. The consomme was very flavorful, that I even dipped my tortilla chips in. The chicharron, I had to reheat in my oven because I wanted it a little more crisp, and I am glad I did as it rendered a lot of grease that I did not need. Always wanted to try, but no need to try again. I will definitely return to try different items. Was greeted as I entered the restaurant.
Sidenote: prices are higher if you order carryout online. I did not know until after the fact. Will be calling in my order next time.

The restaurant looks amazing and aesthetically pleasing. The food taste was perfected and the desert was truly exceptional. The reason for me review is because I was highly impressed and this place deserves it! Our server Humberto was awesome and recommended sauce for my burrito. It was wonderful.

I didn’t even know this new place was here. Thought I’d order dinner to go and give it a shot. Lots of customers inside-Good sign. Cool decor. Nice atmosphere. Ordered the Chorri Pollo, Castillo De Elote & Tres Leches Cake. Portions were BIG-enough to share between 2 people.
Chori Pollo: Beans, rice, & onion/pepper mix were all great. Didn’t realize til I got home that my tortillas were forgotten, but not the end of the world. I WAS really disappointed to see though, that the chicken is not real, actual chicken, but the processed kind that has the grill marks on them already. Like the frozen, bagged grilled chicken patties you can find at the grocery store? Just some constructive criticism: I know real chicken is more expensive & more dangerous in a busy kitchen with strict temps & cross contamination risk, but man…these processed chicken patties with the perfectly painted on grill stripes reminds me so much of hospital cafeteria food. No amount of seasoning can make them taste like actual, authentic chicken. Chori Pollo is my go to at any Mexican restaurant. At most of them, I can taste the char grilled flavor, like they were actually cooked on an open flame/grill style oven. The grilled chicken patties just taste spongey & flavorless. There’s no mistaking them for real chicken.
I’ll try the tacos next time & skip the chicken menu.
The cake was huge and delicious. Fresh, airy & delicate, but rich. Very good. The chips & salsa were also great. Fresh/warm chips and mild salsa with a nice flavor. I just wouldn’t recommend the chicken at all.

One of the best Mexican restaurants Ive ever been to! As a vegetarian I got more options than most places and they weren’t all just brand cheese and rice. Everything was perfect, from the waitress who brought out refills without me having to ask, to every dish that hit the table. I don’t think I’ve ever not had one complaint and this place had my jaw dropping when I saw the bill was so cheap! I mean, the pricing is unmatched for the amount of food and quality of food! I will be back and I dare say this is the best Mexican restaurant in Central Ohio.

We tried this place for the first time tonight and we were very impressed! When you walk in the entire place is beautifully decorated and the art work is amazing and unique, the staff was very polite and our food came out quickly. We ordered the chorizo queso, birria pizza & kids taco with rice. Everything was delicious, 10/10 . Not to mention the portions were huge! Even the leftovers were good! We loved this restaurant and will definitely return!

Mexican food with a little bit from various regions. The food is excellent and the menu contains dishes not typically found in a traditional Mexican restaurant. The decor is beautiful and the seats are plush. I had the Chimichangas and she had the Pollo Hawaiiano and both were amazing. We also had the Guacamole Con Chicharron, which had an amazing tasting thick sliced pork belly as a side. Highly recommend this place.
