    Great atmosphere. Went in the winter but I heard they have a nice outdoor bar in the nicer months too. Specials were delicious and lots of unique drinks to choose from.

    Whenever there is pork belly on the menu...you order it. Also get the loaded nachos, possibly the best in town.

    Korean Taco is a personal favorite. Tasty margaritas. Nice atmosphere. Gets very busy-- make a reservation a week in advance if possible.

    Spicy margaritas and a giant plate of their nachos is the key to my heart! Super cool bar- lots of sugar skulls. Always packed, always a good time

    The veggie taco is fantastic -- and I'm a meat eater! Add the homemade habanero sauce for a kick!

    Extremely loud in here. Horrible acoustics. Pierces your ears! Cannot hear your company. Single restrooms. Delicious food and unique atmosphere. Go when it's chill...it is uncomfortable when busy...

    Nachos locos to start. Chorizo or steak and cheese burrito to finish. Wash them down with a spicy margarita.

    The food portions have upgraded with the opening of the dine-in restaurant, great food and good sizes now.

    My early favorite is the Koreatown Taco. Hungry? Get a burrito, much bigger then their tacos.

    Koreatown taco is simply amazing. It goes perfectly with a pitcher of the house margaritas :)

    Prices are super good for a place that typically requires a reservation because they're so busy.

    Drinks were good. Koreatown okay but not very spicy. Nachos and queso with chorizo a must.

    I might be the only person who didn't love this place. Loud. Difficult to have casual dinner conversation and it was only 6pm. Veal tacos were heavenly, but tiny.

    The bartenders are heavy handed. Careful what you order, or prepare yourself.
