Joseph Juhnke: The vegetarian burrito con suezo is UNBELIEVABLE!! Two margaritas (awesome too) and you're walking home.
Adam Graff: Skip the flautas (chicken only), you'll want the steak. Burritos, salsa, and margaritas are fantastic. Reminds me of the old Salvadores on Lake near Michigan Ave.
Rebecca Harl: Amazing and strong Margaritas!!

Amber K: This is more than a burrito place. Enjoy fresh chips and salsa and strong margaritas on the patio; order the black bean salad side with anything (best-flavored beans I've had in my life).
Marion: Excellent service - even for the party of 1 that we saw come in at 5 min till close. Good, simple Mexican food. Great house margarita.
Caitlin White: Great flautas here. Both the chicken and steak were cooked perfectly. Sit in the back patio if you can and grab a pitcher of margs :)
Rob N.: Of course the margaritas are great and really on half price Tuesdays and Thursdays. Get anything steak! Wait staff is second to none.
Jenna Walker: Margaritas are tasty & 1/2 priced to Tues and Thurs. Friendly and attentive waiters. Large burrito meal is good to share. Good place to meet up with your friends and a pitcher of margaritas!
Mari B: This was my Thursday wknd kick-off for 4 yrs! Margaritas in all flavors are awesome for 1/2 price, service is great, ceviche, steak taco salad and the steak nachos are the BEST!
Dawn Crawford: Grab a seat at the bar and you can plug-in, get a hand shaken marg and a quiet place to sit
