Been twice in a few days- so good!

Best tacos that we’ve had in Central America. Just been back for the second time as it’s delicious and easy. Laid back atmosphere, good choice of foods and great service. Highly recommend for a quick, relaxed dinner in Antigua! Have the pork tacos!

Great spot for delicous tacos!

We nearly gave this spot a miss as it looked a little "touristy" however I wouldn't let this put you off. It is busy every evening for a reason, the tacos are delicious!! The atmosphere is pretty fun with a DJ playing on the night...More

Everything they say is true

This place is the bomb. The food is outstanding and the cocktails are great. This was the first place I ate in Antigua. Now if I can only hope that the rest of the food in Antigua is this good.
