We came in tonight for my sister’s birthday. We actually came here for the first time a year ago for her last birthday and have been back so many times since! The food is on point and it is super consistent; Every visit it tastes exactly right. Guacamole, Arabic tacos, brisket tacos, fish tacos, birria, and the torta were the stars of the show! And always are. I know that’s a lot, but it’s true. They’re always delicious. Their special marg & every other drink was delicious too, never too sweet, always balanced. Thanks again, Chela! We’ll be back for sure.

We celebrated my boyfriend’s birthday with a small group, and everything exceeded our expectations. The service was outstanding, the food was exceptional, and the drink menu was both creative and delicious. Since we don’t drink alcohol, the manager kindly crafted custom mocktails just for us—a thoughtful and unexpected touch. We were also pleasantly surprised to receive complimentary pizzas for the table, which we truly appreciated. We’ll definitely be returning and can’t wait to recommend this fantastic new spot to all our friends!
