    Awesome vibe, casual. My friend and I split the brunkow cheese and coffee raised beef tacos. Drinks were also amazing. I'd recommend the cucumber margarita.

    Try the "How Do You Like Them Apples" cocktail. It consists of a cider mix which is reduced with mulled spices, amaro, cinnamon-infused Finlandia vodka and a dash of brown sugar, poured on the rocks. Read more

    If the coffee-braised beef tacos are on the menu, that's what you want. Stop thinking you may not get them. You want them. So good!!

    Bar Takito just can’t figure it out. Located in a great area but the lack luster service will make you never want to come back. On the other hand, Takito Kitchen in Wicker is awesome.

    One of the best tacos I've had. Fish tacos was my favorite. Ask for the seasonal margarita - mine was with watermelon & basil; it was sweet and tasty.

    The Peruvian Margarita is sweet and spicy and great if you just want one. They gave us a bunch of apps that were superb but I can't remember what they were called.

    Food is fantastic! Service is terrible. The wait staff and hostess had snarky attitudes and were rude to us when we attempted to help them understand what portions of our meal were missing.
