My husband and I ate here during our vacation, and sat at the bar. Josh was awesome (friendly, professional, great customer... service). He was the only one working when we arrived, but he was still very attentive and friendly. Since we were on vacation,we're not familiar with the restaurant. I discovered after it was Taco Tuesday, and I would have ordered differently if Joshwould've mentioned it to me when I ordered tacos. I got a Modelo and my husband got a mango margarita. He said it's the bestmargarita he has ever had. The food was great. I ate chicken tacos on flour; when it came out incorrectly (corn tortillas),Josh handled it very professionally. I didn't like the cotija street corn (due to my preference- my husband ate it), but I thinkit was accurately described. My husband got a steak quesadilla. I liked the atmosphere here in general, but I have to say thatI think it's incredibly inappropriate (and gross) to allow a dog to sit in a chair at a restaurant's bar. While we were there, adog was seated in a bar chair, pushed up to the bar, for at least half of the time we spent at the restaurant. I say this as aperson who loves to take our dogs to different places where they are allowed. Having a well-behaved dog doesn't mean you candisregard cleanliness around food, restaurant regulations, or considerations of other people. Read more

Is it a trip to Boston if you don't have lobster? I am not a big fan of lobster rolls, but I am a huge Mac and cheese fan. This... jalapeño lobster Mac and cheese was full of lobster and flavors (I actually would've preferred even more jalapeños), but toeach their own. The service is excellent! My friend and I ate outside and the view of Union Street was great, and it was alovely meal with a great atmosphere. Read more

BEST Cantina in Boston!!! Homemade salsa verde is the best! The homemade chips complimented the salsa. Chicken tacos were... excellent. Drinks were made with fresh ingredients. Music was enjoyable and most of all a great server. Josh made the dinningexperience much fun! Read more

Great place for drinks and tacos! I went on a Friday evening. Our server was excellent and the head chef even came by to check... on our table. I had the chorizo tacos, they were delicious and the portion was large. The restaurant has outdoor dining, insidetables, and a large bar with two TVs. Our group of 8 had a wonderful time. The food, drinks, and location can?t be beat! Read more
