I went there on taco Tuesday and got 2 tacos and a pupusa for $5. That is a very good deal! The food was good, I sat at the bar. It was very busy, so I didn't expect much service. Overall nice place to stop on taco Tuesday.

While a generous portion size for the money, many ingredients fell below the mark. The steak used in several of our dishes was tough and stringy. The fajitas dripped with far too much oil ( was it an attempt to make too much sizzle?)Kind of disappointing, service was slow to follow up.

Had dinner there last night and it was very good! Nachos are huge! And delicious. So are the pupusas! Tacos also very good! You get a lot but don't spend a lot! They are doing things right for sure! Atmosphere is fun, yet relaxing, and the bartender was knowledgeable and friendly.

Sad to say that it was a huge disappointment, considering the crowds that go here.- Chori-queso dip: my husband saw it and said right away that this wasn't an authentic place. The taste confirmed it.- The tortas: awful, stale bread. We both couldn't finish them because the bread was so old and crumbly. My steak was gristly and overcooked (well done). The other problem is that we didn't get what we ordered. I confirmed it at the counter once I saw the receipt (I ordered the torta de quesa-birria and she rang it up as torta de birria), and let her know there was a mistake. Someone else came out and told me they were the same thing (they are not, one has guac, and my husband is not a fan). Luckily he doesn't have an avocado allergy.TLDR: not authentic Mexican, staff uninformed of menu items, not careful of potential allergies.

Despite the decidedly unauthentic decor, this was a great first visit to the replacement of Lista's. We were promptly seated. The salsa was really good. It had some heat but a sweetness as well. I had a skinny margarita that was delicious. Honestly fresh juices seems even better than a mix. Hubby also started with a house margarita and the had $5 beer. And not a little one either. A legit 22oz Dos Equis. Food was served promptly and our server was great. Very friendly and funny. The portions are huge. I had the mole chicken enchiladas. You get four plus refried beans and rice. Easily two meals, if you can restrain yourself. Hubby had the chimichangas which were also huge. Our anarchist child had a burger. IDK. Definitely going back.

First time trying this new TexMex restaurant in Pasadena! Like a lot of new restaurants, they have some growing pains but show a lot of promise. We came for lunch on a Saturday and were seated promptly. We admired the pretty mural style wall decor and munched on complimentary chips and salsa while deciding what to order. We decided on the the beef empanadas appetizer, Cuban torta, and the birria loaded burrito. The food: you definitely get great value for your money in terms of portion size and price here. We both ended up taking half our entrees home. My birria burrito was missing some of the ingredients listed on the menu (no rice, beans, or guacamole) but it was pretty tasty anyway. My boyfriend's Cuban torta was so large that I had a fun time watching him attempt to eat it. He removed the pieces of carne asada from it because it was extremely chewy and not tender, and it made the sandwich more difficult to eat. The service was generally good but could be better. The food came fast and we were checked up on by our waitress a few minutes after digging in. I did ask for more salsa from the food runner and did not receive it, but the waitress got it for us when we asked her. The entrees came out 2 minutes after the appetizer so we hadn't had much time to dig in before the next round. Overall I think we will be back to try their taco Tuesday special and drinks in the future.

My husband and I stopped in tonight (Sunday) around 5pm for dinner. This restaurant just opened this week and we have patiently been waiting to try it. We were sat immediately at a high top in the bar area. We each ordered a water and my husband got a house margarita. He enjoyed it. You receive complimentary chips and salsa which I enjoyed because the salsa wasn't spicy. My husband would have cared for more of a kick. Opposites attract, I guess! For appetizers, we got the corn bites and amigos egg rolls. Both were tasty. The photo that accompanies each on the website menu are not accurate. The corn bites, in the photo online, appear more like fried corn fritters. The appetizer is served like corn on the cob. The amigos egg rolls were tasty but definitely a ton of wrapper. Can't complain for the price. We both ordered the Don Panchos fajitas which comes with steak, chicken and shrimp. The serving of meat is huge! You can choose corn or flour tortillas and it comes with rice, beans, salad and green salsa. The gentleman who took care of us, Brandon, provided excellent service. We received everything in a timely fashion and never were waiting on anything. The prices are very reasonable. We will be back.

I ordered a chicken shrimp and scallop fajita(fajita jarochas) however there was no scallops in it. Though it tastes phenomenal and you can clearly tell it's fresh, there were no tortilla shells. My sister ordered the best birria tacos, the shell wasn't crispy/crunchy. It was different but tasty and missing cheese, I think. We ordered taco, but the waitress kept us updated on the status of our order and asked if we needed anything to drink. The atmosphere was nice the music was at a good volume and they heaven has sports on. I will be going back try other things.
