  As a fourth generation Loa Angeles native that was raised and spent much of my adult life in SoCal I am always in the lookout for good Hispanic and South American cuisine. As a recent transplant to Sioux Falls from the west coast I have struggled to find much beyond some over cheesed Americanized TexMex that I find repulsive. I stumbled across this little gem while scoping out the stores and restaurants next to my new loft at the Carlton. The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating. The shook me up a made to order margarita that had jalapeño infused tequila and muddled cilantro (think Mexican Mojito). They were eager to make something that was off menu and what resulted, was margarita that looked great and tasted better. The food was good and came out promptly. The only reason they didn’t get five stars for food is because I am super discriminate when it comes to to rating cuisine. I am sure that it would get a 5 in most people’s book and you won’t find anyplace better in Sioux Falls to bring the family and enjoy good food, great atmosphere, and some amazing staff

  My friend and I went for lunch and each ordered a Skinny Margarita. First of all, the size and price of the drinks were not listed in the menu. When it came, it was 34 OUNCES. Okay love that, but when the bill came, that skinny margarita was $28.50?!?! And believe me, I am all for businesses making a profit but I did my research. They used top shelf tequila, I’ll give them that, but the cost of the shooter size that was in the drink is about $5.50. And since it’s a skinny margarita, it’s pretty much just juice aside from the tequila. The presentation was lovely, very fancy and all and the flavor was great, but there is no reason on God’s green Earth to charge that much for a drink. They would make a fair profit if they charged $15 or $16 dollars, $28.50 is just greedy. Of course we paid our bill and went on our way, but we will never live down the fact that we paid almost $30 for a drink when our meals were each about $18. The food was fine but not good enough for us to go again. As if the egregiously priced drinks weren’t enough to keep us away.

  I got the taco special. I got one carnitas, chicken, and pastor. The carnitas were a little different in flavor that I am used to, but all 3 were delicious. It also came with rice & beans. I normally don't like refried beans and rice, both were very well seasoned and the rice was slightly spicy. I was pleasantly surprised! I also got a mango mezcal margarita. It was fruity, not too sweet and refreshing. I would definitely recommend it to others!

  Great place to eat. It can be a little noisy but the food is worth it.
