Walked in and the owner welcomed me and even shook my hand. Ordered some amazing shrimp, and the carne asada plate. Both were amazing with great authentic flavors! The salsa to the chips was delicious! The only thing I would recommend, is the service could have been a little better, but I appreciate how the owner was professional and friendly! Definitely recommend them for your downtown Mexican restaurant!

We did a quick little staycation up in flagstaff and ended ip having so much fun at this bar! The bar manager was so friendly and let us try a bunch of the upcoming holiday drinks he was creating. We had 3 of them and they were all hits! If you’re coming to flagstaff for the holidays and want a cozy bar with amazing drinks, good prices, and a super friendly atmosphere, this is the place for you! We will absolutely be going back and will highly recommend to our family and friends!

I have been waiting for their google page to go live just to write this review, because it honesty doesn’t get better than this! For fresh seafood in the downtown area, the prices are very reasonable and the food has been great the three times we have been since they opened. The service is also great, with the staff being very friendly and attentive. I cannot recommend this place enough and look forward to bringing our friends here in the future.

I had the best guacamole I’ve ever had at this delightful and delicious restaurant. The birria plate came with fabulous refried beans and the best rice I’ve had in a long time. The service was excellent, several folks checked on us and were super nice.
