  • Fish tacos

    I loved my fish tacos, the fish was ever so lightly battered and the batter thin.

  • Carnitas Burrito

    Both the burrito and nachos were well-balanced with tender, flavorful meat and fresh ingredients — the Carnitas Burrito was definitely the highlight!

Before you head over

Practical tips on sharing feasts, parking, and house specialties

  • Pace Yourself on the Multi-Course Share Feast

    The $80 Amigos package sequences an entrée share platter, tacos, burritos, and churros. Diners note the portions are substantial enough to fill two people before dessert arrives, so consider ordering à la carte if you prefer a lighter meal.

  • Walk-In Availability and Convenient Street Parking

    If you want a table without booking ahead, staff readily accommodate walk-ins with swift table service and fast turnaround on hot dishes. Street parking is accessible right outside along Watton Street.

  • Sample Table Sauces and Take Home a Bottle

    Floor staff bring out proprietary spicy sauces alongside your food, and full bottles are available to buy at the counter to take home if you find a favorite blend.
