    Went during happy hour, got a $5 chorizo Fundido which was delicious. Also ordered Baja fish tacos, margaritas, and the Sashimi tuna Tostadas. The serving sizes are small but the flavours are great!

    Awesome sauce. Go during happy hour for some great deals. I'm obsessed with the pork belly tacos, mushroom quesadilla & watermelon gazpacho. Margaritas are solid as well. Service is always friendly.

    Fantastic food and great ambience in the heart of Ann Arbor. Warm and inviting room downstairs perfect for small private gatherings. Small plates appeal to all tastes. Their Mojito is da bomb!

    The Elote and the Mushroom Taco are my favorite items. Also, if you get a margarita, ask them to add fresh pineapple. It's great!

    Above average sit down Mexican with a number of “gourmet” options. Unfort nothing knocks out but a fun place to go with friends. The spicy jalapeño marg was the highlight

    Delish. Get a compilation of dishes and share with the table! Also skip the churros, and go with the flan for dessert, even if you aren't a flan person. Bartender even says so.

    I got the Baja fish tacos and they were to die for. Too bad they're tiny. I think this place is ideal if you go in a group of 3 and more and order a bunch of stuff.

    Vibrant ambiance. Cozier than Mani. Too early to judge all food. I would recommend the Sweet Plantains for a tasty side. Tacos tried so far have been fabuloso!

    Great cocktails. Try the barrel-aged tequila negroni. Perfect spin on a classic.

    Delish but expensive. We shared 3 dishes including chips/salsa ($4, yikes) plus 1 drink each, was $20 each before tax. Try the blood orange frozen margarita! $8 but it's potent.

    Chips are very thick. Guacamole and cantinas tacos are very good.
