“The restaurant has a really cool vibe and we had amazing service at the bar from Luis. In addition to being very friendly and kind, Luis gave us incredible food and drink recommendations. My bf and I had the gobernador and asada tacos and they were both extremely well seasoned and delicious. Some of the best tacos of my life!! The flowers for benny cocktail was light and refreshing. This spot is definitely our new go-to in the area.”

“I normally don’t leave restaurant reviews but felt compelled to for this place because my experience was top-notch. The tacos, tuna ceviche, and horchata drink were all delicious and came out incredibly quickly. The servers were kind and attentive and even gave my friend a free dessert for his birthday. The restaurant was a vibe and had pretty decorations up for the Day of the Dead. I live a good drive from Long Beach, but I’m excited to come back. One of my new favorite restaurants!”

“Great food, great service, taco plate is a good deal.”
