“happy hour is absolutely the move. the margarita flight is so good and its all frozen. the churro bombs are OK, theyre more like a donut. the chicken tacos are fire. the chips and queso hit the spot but not my preference. the elote cup is fabulous. the staff is very nice.”

“Really enjoyable vibe, delicious food and location so handy”

“Amazing atmosphere and place to be for happy hour! We had great margaritas and food!”

“So so so good!!!! Would definitely come here again next time we visit Chicago. Food was delicious and reasonably priced. Customer service is awesome, Ivan was super helpful and made the experience even better!”

“Great stop for lunch! The tacos were delicious, I got the asada and the pescado with a side of chips and salsa verde. All the food was fresh and homemade with great flavor. Service was quick and easy. Seating inside is limited but there was still room for a group of us. The building itself was clean and the workers were helpful. Definitely stop here if you’re in the area!”

“Delicious tacos! Best chips I’ve ever had! And strong margaritas!”

“Visited this place in downtown Chicago and had a lovely chicken and Mexican street corn burrito before going to a concert at soldier field. Really good food prepared quickly.”

“I almost hate leaving this review, because I don't want them overrun next time I go there! However, we went there for both dinner and lunch, both times we got our food quickly, and it came out amazing! For Chicago prices, it was well worth the money, and the portions were decent, plus their chips are SO good. Would definitely recommend them!”

“Consistently delicious with fast friendly service. Best tacos I've tasted in printers row. Steak taco & guac are delicious!”

“Highly recommend that you go here if you are visiting Chicago. This restaurant has amazing prices. We love the location and the view. All the employees were professional and nice. We were surprised the food took less than 20 minutes to get our food.”

“Everything was good at this place. The food was amazing, the service was extremely fast and Ivan (my order taker) knew so much about the place it made me feel like at home. The prices are pretty normal, I got a chicken bowl and a to-go margarita for $24. They have TO-GO margaritas, have never seen this before and it was so refreshing. I really would love to see more places do this, especially it being frozen. I will be back soon. Only reason it isn't 5 stars is because it's on the smaller side, there are multiple locations but the one downtown on Dearborn specifically isn't the biggest. Other then that it was amazing I will be back.”
