On Taco Tuesday, I indulged in their $2.99 special, trying the shrimp, carne asada, and battered fish tacos. The shrimp was slightly chewy but the flavor was lovely, and the carne asada had great tenderness. I appreciated the pico de gallo and guacamole on the side!
Service was fast and friendly, despite a bit of a wait to get the check.
The cozy atmosphere made my dining experience lovely. I can’t wait to return for another round of tacos and enjoy a margarita next time! 🍹💖
