Costa Mesa, CA Mexican Restaurant

I wanted to like the food because there are so many reviews raving about it. Your first impression at a Mexican restaurant is chips and salsa. The salsa is so thick and ... more

Not 24/7.

Good food for the money

I liked

Honestly they make the best grilled chicken and it's totally underrated. The employees are dedicated and I always ring the bell.

The WORST Chipotle I have ever seen - there were no customers in the store - all the tables were empty and our family could not even sit down due to all the trash and fo ... more

Better than Rubios

The employees at this restaurant are so incompetent they should be used as a case study for lowering the minimum wage. Your job is to scoop food into a bowl and you cant ... more

Great, authentic Mexican food with healthy portions. Very quick and friendly staff

Great comfort food menu and great atmosphere in Costa Mesa/ Newport Beach. Live music on some nights. Breakfast all day also!

Service was sloth-fully slow. 18 minutes to make a strawberry shake with no apologies. Make sure you use the app.

Food was honestly better than expected. The staff was incredibly kind, even giving me a shake for free on one occasion when I was like 25 short. Atmosphere could use some ... more

They run out of everything an hour before closing. Why stay open until 11 if there isnt going to be any options?

I could not find them. And they were still open. Maybe next time.

Best vegan burritos and tacos Ive had by far. The staff is great as well. I recommend the Cali burrito and the chile rellenos (when they have it). I hope to see this plac ... more

Classic cali mexican food

Today I decided to come to eat at this place for the first time, in Costa Mesa. But the staff is not very friendly, I waited 40 minutes for them to give me my food, the c ... more

Food is very mediocre. The drinks are really good. We only really go for drinks . Great mimosas. They use champagne brutt which is delicious.

Bad service, I called for an order of 2 cakes, I arrived and got in line to pay for them, 2 guys arrived, the cashier greeted them and attended to them first and told the ... more

Good cost - benefit. Price appropriate to the portions.

Great food and service!

Happy hour is great!

Pretty good food.

Really good place we ordered some vegan asada nachos , vegan asada fries with a vegan Horchata.

We loved this place. So sad it's no longer taco brat and has a new name and menu.
