    We enjoyed all the different tacos we ordered. The waitresses recommendations were all really good. Just keep in mind that tacos are just a very messy food to eat! Ordered both styles of wings to start and chips and guacamole. Both were good - though these places never really give you enough guac. Only thing I thought could improve was the classic margarita ordered. When I asked if it was overly sweet she did say it was not because it’s “skinny”. It was too “light” in flavour for me - could have used more like juice and alcohol and a touch more agave.

    The food is AMAZING. We always get the taco flight and it never disappoints, we also tried the wings and both are delicious. It gets busy and it’s small inside so definetly book a reservation. Everyone who works there is also so lovely!

    The taco ingredients were flavorful but the taco shells failed. The heavy ingredients on top made them soggy and hard to eat with your hands which tacos should be bite size. We ended up eating it with forks and knives. Churros were too dense and doughy. It’s definitely more Korean than Mexican in terms of fusion. Service was friendly.

    Food was ok and service as well. My only complaint is about updating the description of the menu in this app. I was looking for chilaquiles and huevos rancheros that was highlighted in the description, but not longer in the menu.
