    It was very unhygienic. Even I found unwanted ingredients in my food

    Great little lunch spot downtown near the university and the hospitals. Really good authentic Mexican food, including the best tamale I’ve had in Ohio in 13 years. Cool, festive atmosphere, and excellent service. Cincos Estrellas todas las dias!!

    I got the taco salad with steak and wow it was amazing. A great place to eat with a good vibe. The outside area was just a bonus.

    Amazing food and stellar service. My partner and I got in toward closing after a very long day and they still seated us and let us put in a food order. Their house made hot sauces are incredible and the enchilada I got was one of the best I’ve ever had. My partner got the birria tacos and the consume they came with came very authentic and rich with pieces of meat in it which was delicious. We’re only visiting the city but will likely come back again before we leave and have it on the list for when we come back!

    Forgettable... unremarkable...meh. despite being really slow, server ignored our table. Didn't bring napkins or silverware until after food was brought out and didn't ask if we wanted drunk refills until it was time to check out. Also..why does the ground beef have zucchini in it??? It wasn't "bad" food, but lacking in flavor and higher on price makes for a regrettable experience.
