Fun repurposed home. There was a alot of seating, inside and outside. The patio was super pretty with lots of fun lighting. The tacos and burritos were delicious, particularly the brisket! Thoroughly enjoyed our dinner.

From GA. A Friend told us about happy hour $1.50 & $2.50 tacos. See the picture for the happy hour menu. The vibe was so premium outside that most people ate outside. There were a couple people inside. Nice vibes inside too. Not too big but seemed to be adequate. Clean restroom/establishment with nice and fast service.

Eggplant, Jackfruit, KBBQ beef and brisket were all fair. They were kinda small. I didn’t complain because of price but if it wasn’t happy hour I might’ve had more of an issue. Fav taco was the fried fish. The mushroom was the second fav. Chipotle Cauliflower was great. Truffle Guac and chips were good. Drinks strong. I like their fun menu options. I could eat here again and recommend especially for happy hour. Nice plating and forks. My only complaint was the small size tacos. Because of the great happy hour deal, I didn’t see a need to drop a star. Although I could see why someone would give 4 star.

Had a great birthday lunch here. Jose our waiter was excellent. We loved the brisket nachos, braised beef & KBBQ tacos. The breakfast burrito with brisket was also delicious. The red velvet churros were over the top and loved the birthday presentation!
Sitting outside on the patio made for a perfect celebration!

Food was good, drinks were good. Ambiance feels like any other gentrified place. Service here sucks. First of all the person who sat us asked what kind of water we wanted. We said still.....Not knowing they were gonna charge us $8 a bottle of water. Still and flat water are the same thing. Fine. But then the happy hour menu AND the menu spells out what beer they have. Model and Pacifico. I ask our waitress for a michelada with a modelo. She answers as if I cant read and said "we don't have modelo. We have Dos Equis and tecate"....... Not "I'm sorry we changed our menu" nothing. She was cold and dry. Not friendly at all. She didn't even give us her name. To top it all off there was barely any avocado in the grilled shrimp burrito. I wouldn't go back.

Welp…
To call this place “Mexican Food” would be a disservice to Mexicans everywhere. A weird remix of traditional plates and some strange tasting hybrid ones. Food was oddly seasoned and lacked spice. Sort of reminded me of restaurants when they learn the items but forget the recipes-the food looks great but lacks in any promise of flavor.

Worse our waiter left us and clocked out for the day shortly after being seated -leaving us with their luxious “tap” water and cold** chips and guacamole seasoned with tajin. My suspicion is that the chips, guacamole, and serving spoon-yes you read that right- were left in the refrigerator together to make service quicker-not to say they were busy, the place was basically empty before and after we ate.

Which brings me to the bathrooms 🚽. Broken run down and kinda smelly, the faucets were barely functioning with broken handles and a soap dispenser that was just jammed in there because the original broke and was never fixed.

Whew that was a lot and not to say there aren’t hard workers at this restaurant but the food was sloppy, my drink gave me a bad headache, and something else irritated my mouth. At the end we received the wrong check and would have just paid to get out of there but we’re not dishonest ppl.

Not a great experience and definitely not worth the price. This restaurant should be avoided-it’s like a run down amusement park in a prime location.

My mom had the crispy shrimp bowl over a year ago, and when she came back to LA she said having it again was one of the things she was looking forward to most! Vibrant, quality, and delicious. The food comes fast, is rather affordable, and doesn’t disappoint!

I’ve ordered the same meal twice before, I usually hit dairy allergy since it’s an option, I assumed there was a vegan cheese, tofay I got a note saying it has dairy, so twice I’ve had dairy instead of them calling and confirming… ontop of that news, they put meat in my vegan kbbq burrito. Someone needs to be fired.

Korean BBQ Burrito was excellent. Good service and casual atmosphere. Very reasonable prices. I will definitely be going back to try more menu specialities.
