    Take a walk on the spicy side and try the Jalapeño margarita. Just enough bite with a cool after taste. Great vibe at the bar if you're in the area for cocktails. Wait staff at bar attentive

    Their Mexican is tex-mex and they fully admit it. Great tasting, but don't count it as authentic. Meanwhile the BBQ is delicious as well. The sandwiches are huge & try their BBQ sauces!

    Guac & queso fundido are amazing! Two of us shares both appetizers and had no need for dinner - so filling! The pitchers of margs are a great deal; they don't skimp on the tequila & they're only $20!

    The pork shoulder is like a hug from Jesus. Like, the kind of hug that leads to the blinds getting closed and the funky porn music starts playing. Dirty Christ sex; the pork shoulder here is THAT good

    Great space to drink & hang out with friends! The service can be a little iffy sometimes (depending on waiter/waitress) but overall a go-to spot for a good time & good eat.

    Amazing brunch! Chicken and Biscuits meal is so good and so are their fried pickles. Make sure you get the margarita pitcher or mimosas just to top it all off.

    Can't go wrong with the Buttermilk Fried Chicken or Pulled Pork w/ chihuahua cheese. For Appetizer the Nachos are always a good choice.

    Coming here and not getting food is impossible. It's awesome. When available, the Puebla Burger (not on the regular menu)is one of the best in the city.

    We ordered takeout and got surcharged for COVID-19.... I don’t understand how that works. They charge for carry out, but what’s the difference between that and delivery? And they expect a tip?🤬🤯👎

    Vegans -- the cactus and potato tacos are out of this world! Beware if you make it a PLATO ...the black beans are good but the rice is quite bland.

    Pro tip. If you see 4 empty tables, your wait will still be stated at 30 minutes. Don't worry you will only wait 25 mins. I don't get it.
