Reviews
The menu concept was a bit confusing since it combines tacos and sushi, two very different styles, but I was open to it if the execution was strong. Unfortunately, it wasn’t. Our table ordered the birria, mahi mahi, chicken shawarma, and carne asada tacos, and none of them landed. The rice was hard and cold, and after about an hour wait the food arrived cold overall and very underwhelming. I took one bite from two tacos and couldn’t continue.
Our server, Lilly, was the standout of the evening. She was attentive, friendly, and handled everything professionally. She shared that the manager would only allow 50% off the food, which felt disappointing considering how little was actually eaten.
At roughly $50 per person, the experience didn’t match the price point. Sadly, I won’t be recommending this spot.

First of all the atmosphere was very solid! It was slightly crowded because we went on a Saturday but it was nice nonetheless.
The chips and salsa was very nice.
The Lamb tacos were delectable! Very fresh, well done, and pretty seasoned. I do have one critique though, the melted cheese under the tortilla tasted weird but it was very tolerable. The lamb was amazing and the slaw they put on there is EVERYTHING
The red dragon roll was delicious!! Very fresh and so satisfying to eat.
The tiramisu is to die for! It was chilled to perfection and every bite tasted like I was in heaven.
The service was good and other waitresses/waiters helped us even when they weren’t in our section. They’re also very helpful to us. I completely understand that our waitress had a lot of people in our section but she still accommodated us!
Overall decent score 8.7/10 ⭐️
My taquitos were tasty and my fresh espresso martini was done right as well.
Auto tip is added to each check.
I chose the house tacos (tequila lime mahi-mahi and halloumi cheese and mango). While I wasn’t particularly impressed with either of these, I did spot more choices for my next visit in the menu visuals displayed throughout the restaurant. He chose the blazin’ shrimp, carne salsa and lamb braisin’ birria which were solid.
The service was exceptional (server Joey T.). It’s worth noting that an 18% tip was already included on the bill for our party of two. While we usually tip more ourselves, it was a bit unusual to see it automatically added. We will return regardless.
But we wanted to try something new…and Google led us here.
This place looks like it hops on a weekend night, but we were there for lunch on a weekday afternoon so it was pretty chill. Our server was Jeremy and he was great – friendly, detailed oriented, knowledgeable and attentive – we couldn’t ask for anything more.
We split the flautas and the fajitas and both were very good. I’m not sure how they seasoned the shrimp for the fajitas, but it was very tasty, which is good, because the chicken was a little dry.
Overall, a really positive experience.
And I can’t forget this: several reviews I read before our visit commented on how clean the bathrooms were. I don’t usually cover stuff like that in my reviews but I had to check these out…and they definitely lived up to the hype!
