People say this taco restaurant offers delicious, customizable tacos and bowls, with options like the Jefe, Smashburger, and French Dip tacos being popular choices. They also highlight the great margaritas, especially the margarita flights, and the fun, dive bar vibe. Some reviews mention the service can be slow.
“Would give it a 5 but I felt their prices were a bit disingenuous. The food itself was very good. We ordered custom tacos and both of us were pleased with the outcome. We ordered during happy hour and were charged full price for the food but not the drink. I’ll concede maybe the food was placed right at the cutoff time (I don’t remember, our tab said the order was at 5:47). However, I was charged extra for the cilantro rice even though the paper form didn’t indicate this. There was also a service fee, which I didn’t mind but don’t remember seeing anything about it. Anyways, I’d still recommend this place, but would appreciate updated price transparency.”
“Great spot. Make your own tacos / bowls. Fantastic queso. Sneaky heat. I love it. Salsa also great with some heat. Loved my bowl. Got the jefe. Chicken was amazing. Great chorizo also. Steak tacos were delicious Thank u soo much.”
“Amazing tacos! So much variety for build your own taco. There’s no limit on toppings so you can really load the taco up. Guac and chips were very tasty as well. I went with two vegetarians and they loved it so much and went back 2 more times in our 4 day stay in Cleveland. We had great service, our server Olivia was awesome. Our waters were constantly topped up by her and the other servers in the area.”
