    Overall: Went in with higher expectations and was unfortunately very let down. The good: Great space, lots of seating both inside and out, and it's obviously in a very good location. We didn't have to wait to get in and be seated. Huge menu. The not-so-good: Food was very underwhelming, especially for the price. The rice and beans were especially boring, looked like it came straight from a can. Service was slow and the food was cold. Don't think we'll be going back. Food/drink: 4/10 Atmosphere: 7/10 Service: 6/10

    Everything is awesome except sooooo hot! No AC!! Which seems to be the norm. Sean was an amazing server! Food was delish but it was literally so hot in there it was unbearable. I feel bad for the servers and cooks.

    I’ve written a review several years ago ravinggg about this place, but went tonight and it was genuinely the worst food I’ve had in CHS…and I grew up here. Street corn queso was cold and watery—also came out after our mains which were also veryyyy delayed (in a half empty restaurant) and very cold :/. We also watched/listened to the girl next to us as she got a to-go cup for her regular marg to walk with…and no bartender protest 🫠. I was showing someone from out of town the spot because I’d loved it so much in the past, and was so embarrassed by the experience we didn’t even finish our food and went over to Obstinate Daughter for another meal. So sad to take this one off my recommendations list and to the graveyard of fallen CHS restaurants.

    Tasty mexican spot, great service, food, solid menu. Nice outdoor seating, 2nd floor overlooking street. Keeps the beach vibe too.
