This is one of my new go-to spots!! Since it opened in the summer, we’ve been here 3-4 times already.
The service is always great and the food quality and quantity is also exceptional. It’s one of the few places in town where you have ample options of salsa. I get the Pick Me Bowl and it’s always a huge portion and I can always save the other half when I take it to-go. The initial chips and salsa is also very good and probably the best in town.

Had the old fashioned tacos and the street tacos. They have the Mexican version of bottled drinks (real sugar). The chips are made in house! Everything was delicious!

First of all, the service is excellent. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. The food is as wonderful as the service, and the restaurant itself is unique and fun. You won’t be disappointed.
Oh, and the lime margarita is the best I’ve ever tasted!

Our kid ordered a burger at a taco shop… she said “well, it sounded good so?”… I didn’t notice it was a burger cut in half and placed face down in a skillet of bubbling queso! Fajitas and margaritas did not disappoint, and the burritos our friends ordered were huge! Can’t wait to go back, need to try it all.

We took some customers to here. It was their suggestion. It is new. I will say I was very very impressed. The atmosphere is just awesome. I’m a huge fan of Volkswagen buses and they have two old buses there. One is part of the bar base. Another one is restored and sitting outside like a catering truck maybe? The staff was awesome and it was just a fun place to be at. The food was spot on. I got the combination fajitas. There was probably more meat on my fajitas than I have had in quite a while from anywhere else. I did get the corn tortilla shells, and they fell apart a few times. Not a dealbreaker, but it was a little awkward trying to eat with them. Still had a wonderful flavor. We will absolutely be back there and take more customers as well.

Service was amazing (our waitress was SO kind and friendly). Super clean and well maintained location. And the food was delicious. My wife also was a big fan of the random animal video playing on the tv lol.
And, of course, the food hit the spot as well. They have nice crispy chips and salsa, with a fun seasoning on the chips. The Birria tacos were fantastic, and the Lamar Steak burrito was great (and huge). Good portions are plenty. Couldn’t recommend enough!

My family LOVES this restaurant! The decor is so eclectic and pleasing, the service amazing, the prices affordable, and the food is fresh and delicious. We appreciated that the menu wasn’t 7 pages long. The selections were varied without being overwhelming. Cilantro and onions are served separately, so if you don’t like either, you just don’t add them to your food.
We are definitely going back.

They have done a great job with the place! It’s so cute inside and I love the vibe. Maria was our server and was very attentive and nice! The red salsa that comes out with the chips is amazing. Portions are huge and the tortillas for the street tacos are some of the best I’ve had. Also loved the margaritas- we will be back!

Was excited to give this place a try after watching the renovations and prep work the past several months. First impressions upon arriving were good. They did a great job with the renovations, interior aesthetics, etc. Atmosphere was great. Sadly, I think they’ve missed the mark on the food.
Walking into this place, my expectation was elevated Tex Mex. We started with the guacamole which is a bit pricey but was pretty good. I also like the thin, crispy tortilla chips.
The entrees, though, were very mediocre. We ordered steak fajitas and a burrito bowl with steak. The “steak” isn’t steak. I understand this when I’m at an average Mississippi Mexican restaurant like La Perla or 95% of the Mexican restaurants in Mississippi, Alabama, Tennessee, etc, but expected something close to actual steak meat here. The steak was cheap, thin little cuts of beef meat.
Also, the topping choices (and only allowing 2 toppings before upcharging) just do not work for a good burrito bowl. They gave a choice of two styles of beans, refried or Ranchero. I’ve had Ranchero style beans at a lot of places and I love them so I went with that option. Unfortunately, their version of Ranchero beans were unlike any I’ve had and not in a good way (and they bizarrely added slices of hotdog to them?)
My dinner companion was equally unimpressed with their fajitas.
I will be back to give them another shot and to try the tacos, but I’ll just go to South Depot (which has its own issues imo)
or even Chipotle the next time I’m craving a burrito bowl.
Anyway, I don’t like giving bad reviews to new restaurants as I know they need time to find their footing and work out kinks. But my main complaints for this place have nothing to do with working out kinks. It’s a good spot to enjoy some margaritas and chips with queso or guacamole. But if they don’t overhaul their approach to the ingredients they use, I don’t see how they last in a town with seemingly 100 other options for this type of food.
