Love the atmosphere. Lighting and music.The Octopus Fajitas and Chicken Perfecto are magnifico!Chips and tortillas are the thicker kind (which I prefer!).The beef Fajitas in the Tacos al Carbon are so tender! But that Octopus and Chicken are BOTH so tender and flavorful! Bravo, Chef!Btw, our server Duncan, was knowledgeable and well versed in describing suggestions for our 1st visit. Thank you, Duncan.We drove 40 min to try this place out... and we were NOT disappointed! My 13 yr old, had Red Fish Tacos, and asked if we could come more often! Even had a Mgr table visit to be sure all is well.Maybe next time I will tell you about the flavorful drinks! Until next time...(BTW, that pepper in the picture is about 4 inches long, some Octopus double in length!)

Our experience started out really strong, great service, atmosphere, etc. Chips and salsa were delicious, drinks were good, my enchiladas tasted great. My husband's however had a piece of METAL in his that was about an inch long - kind of like a long bent staple. Thankfully he didn't swallow it or we would be in the hospital! We informed the manager and she comped his plate and made him a new enchilada to go. However we had lost our appetite and probably won't return.

My wife and I had a fantastic experience here for a birthday celebration. Everything from the appetizer and cocktails to the entrees and dessert was done exceptionally well. The ingredients were fresh, the flavors were very intentionally done and well-balanced, and the service was attentive and friendly. We'd totally come back more often if we lived closer. It's about a half-hour from us, and it was worth the drive!

Our first time here on recommendation from our neighbor. The decor is wonderful, like being in a Mexican Hacienda. Understated and elegant vs some Mexican restaurants that go for the bright colors, etc..my husband had the chicken mole enchiladas, and I had the grilled jumbo shrimp fajitas. Both dishes were excellent! The Top Shelf Margarita was $17 - really tasted great! We ordered the flan and the tres leches cake for dessert. The flan had a crumbled topping like what is usually used in a crumble pastry. The tres Leche cake had coconut flakes on top of about two inches of whipped cream. Excellent!The price for dinner for two people, one Margarita and one beer, two mains and dessert plus tip was just at $100 - not too bad.Our server was friendly, attentive and helpful. I will definitely be back.

This was our first dinner during our recent LOC-ATION (Local-Vacation) and was absolutely fantastic! The service was superior and a manager personally visited our table to ensure it was so. The portions are more than generous and the drinks memorable!

It was a disappointing experience. We sat down in the patio with my husband and his service dog. The hostess came back out and asked us to leave since we have a dog. My husband explained that she was a service dog & the hostess asked if we wanted the manager. The manager asked for the service dog card saying that they are not licensed to have a dog on the patio??? After repeating herself multiple times, my husband asked, "so are you asking us to leave?" The manager said "I can't do that and I just have to believe your dog is a service dog." Overall, food was mediocre, the server gave us bad vibes, & seemed to have an issue with us when we asked for silverware & napkins after our food had already come.

There is a lot of Tex-med in the area but this places knocks the socks off all of them. From their chips and salsa to their fajitas and margaritas. All amazing.Their Muchacho cheese dip is top notch and I can’t say enough about their fajita options. Of course they have chicken and steak but they also have other combos and pork belly!What really blew me away though was their rice and beans. Seems crazy but the fact they put so much flavor in such a typical item is amazing.10/10 will return and recommend

Food is comparable to other Tex-Mex restaurants although freshness is good.Service was OK, not great.Having said this, pricing was outrageous. $ 15 for a ranch water???? $ 10 for a beer??I understand their rent must be very high given their location, but the experience/value equation is definitely not there. First and last time.

Very good experience. There was a wait for inside tables so we sat outside. Comfortable seating but it meant wait staff was not as attentive. Still a good overall experience. Food was very good.

We had dinner here for the first time tonight. Loved every detail, the atmosphere is warm & cozy and the decor is fun. We tried the Pollo Perfecto which our waiter Dustin recommended. It was beyond delicious and we also tried the Crispy Shrimp tacos which were also great. We’ll looking forward to come back again.
