    Bought dinner for a family of 4 and brought it home. I wrote my order myself- I had specific details for certain family members- no onions on some, no beans on some, add salsa on some. My salad had onions. My son had beans on his burrito- and for some reason I was told if I wanted salsa that would cost extra because you buy salsa and do not make it fresh. There are so many good Mexican restaurants near by- I will absolutely not dine at K38 CB again. The other location is way better with a nicer staff.

    Good food and specials. Indoor/outdoor and lively but not overly loud. Chimichanga was flavorful and street corn was a great side (I chose on the cob). Additionally had their chicken elote roll with dipping sauce (not shown), a fantastic recommendation from Ayla behind the bar who handled the restaurant and still provided great service. Hannah was also kind enough to adjust one of the tvs for that night's big game.

    Our first time at K 38, we are locals, but prefer to visit our favorite restaurants after the crowds leave! K 38 will definitely be added tonour list of favorites. Great food and drinks along with fantastic specials. Our waitress, Paxton was the best, spot on and friendly. Management was very impressive also! All in all a great dining experience!
