Sunday lunch disappointment. No other customers. My family of six (four under eight) came in for what we hoped would be a nice family lunch. Instead we waited. And waited. And waited. Finally, half an hour in, our single appetizer was served, a meager helping of chips covered with cheese. By now the kids were starved and consumed it within 15 seconds. Another LONG wait until ONE of our entrees arrived—45 minutes in—and our eight-year-old is fighting tooth and nail to protect his food from his three sisters, who at this point have turned feral. No amount of colouring books and crayons can compete with a child’s growling stomach.
When the rest of our food arrived (55 minutes after ordering), most of it was not bad. The ranchero skillet stands out, the flavour pops and it is spicy without being obnoxious. The crepes were good, our little ones enjoyed them with cheese filling. The cheese-filled omelette was a bit too cheesy for our seven-year-old, so that might be best ordered with meat filling. Zero points to the tiny enchilada served in a thick MSG sauce.
We won’t be coming back, I shudder to think of how long we’d have to wait if there were any...
Read moreCame here on a whim craving a beer and some tacos. The freshly cooked tortilla chips and 2 types of salsa were so good. Perfectly seasoned and still warm. I only wish they were bottomless as I could have eaten these all night but probably better for my waistline that they weren’t! My partner had the jackfruit tacos and she said they were the best freaking tacos she’s had! I had beef quesadilla and it was mouth watering. Everything was portioned perfectly. Price was decent, a bit out of our normal day-to-day budget as dirty backpackers but considering Mexico/Southern California are half a world away and the ingredients can be tricky/pricy to source we had no problem parting with our cash for this meal. Sooooo worth it.
To top it all off we didn’t realise it was Sunday and they did a chilled open-mic night after 5pm and the place didn’t take long to fill up. Everyone was super friendly and they even try to encourage newcomers to perform. Needless to say we made the most of their beer happy hour and left a few hours later than intended with full, happy...
Read more'this place was really great. I think it should have a 5 star rating. The ambience is very cozy, the front has large seating and the back is kinda like a small dive bar. Very cool. Also they have a great rock music selection playing. The owners were very nice to me. Also, the owner answers every review in a kind a courteous manner.
Now to the food. I was craving a chicken quesadilla and that's what I ordered. It looked delish from the get go. When I took my first bite I knew they made homemade tortillas. Very yummy. Also, the way they shredded the chicken was amazing. And the salsa was good too. I just wish they included a little sour cream and guac like usual but that's okay. This place still gets 5 stars and they also had Dr. Pepper on the menu for the thirsty american. I cannot wait to come back and play the pinball video game they had setup. I'd like to try one of their interesting beers too. Great all around!!! Will definitely come back and try their tacos,, burritos and...
