This place was very empty for it being a Friday night.
The vegan queso was really good, we couldn't really tell it was vegan! We really liked our drinks, I especially liked the guava margarita.
They have a good sized patio (dog friendly of course), and we liked that you can place your whole order from a QR code at your table (they have a counter inside if you hate that as well). The only downside to this place is some of the food was pretty spicy, and they didn't really indicate that in the menu.
My wife struggled with her tacos because they were super spicy.
My quesadilla had a little bit of a kick to it as well.
A warning would have been nice, especially for the tacos.
Note that the food was still good, just spicy, and if you can't handle your spice that might cause trouble. Otherwise the food was solid.
There's other places in One Paseo (and Del Mar Highlands) that I like better, but if I was in the mood for Mexican and I saw one of their many locations I'd know what to expect and would be down for it again.

Extremely poor packaging! Everything, including soup fell out of the paper bag, not but 10 minutes after picking it up!!! All over my leather seats! Taking forever to clean and get the smell out.
Order completely damaged! Terrible! Unacceptable!
