We also ordered the lucha tacos, silantros burrito, pancholons burger, rib fingers and grilled porkchop and each one is really delicious. Good serving size and value for your money. Service was responsive and will definitely come back again.

We had to wait for about 15mins before we were seated. We ordered beef nachos, calliente wings, paella fajita mix, and grilled porkchop. I liked the beef nachos but I wish it had more meat/toppings. The wings were flavorful and not too spicy (which I liked). Paella fajita mix was also delicious. The porkchop, however, was a bit of a let down. The meat was tough and bland for my taste. Everything we ordered were good enough for 3-4 people. Waiting time is a bit long (20-25mins) and some of the wait staff are not that attentive to the customers' needs (hence, the Average rating).

But when my huge soft shell taco arrived I was glad I didn't do so. The triple-meat choice I made which is a combination of lamb, lengua and beef, which I didn't expect much of as well, turned out to be a heavenly delight. It was overflowing and very flavorful and topped with a thick serving of greens making me declare it as perfect. The beef skewers were equally as awesome with the servers tirelessly refilling our sauce plates of the 3 types of dips. I'll definitely watch out for this resto again wherever we go!
