We almost made a mistake and didn't go to this place since their website mentioned a "nightclub". We would have missed out one a fantastic meal. The complementary chips and salsa were definitely homemade - and as delicious as the main course. My friend had a Burrito Tricolor, which was humongous. I had the fajita Camaron. The prices for our meals and drinks were much cheaper than expected. Although the restaurant has a patio to dine on, we chose to remain in the AC-coolef interior. We didn't look on every nook or cranny, but what we saw was very clean and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and prompt. I highly recommend this eatery.

Outstanding restaurant in the center of a beautiful city, Lexington KY. A real gem, service was Outstanding special shout out for to Julian for being a star bartender. He helped me immediately, got my drinks, menu, and food quickly and efficiently. The il pastor tacos and the frozen soft serve Margaritas are the best I’ve had in a long time. Great job Mama Tequilas, and great job Julian for being a great human being. I will be back!!! When dinner is finished stay for the club vibe, TJ and Bo from the security staff are amazing, they are nice and are there to add to the experience. I can’t say enough about this place, FANTASTIC ALL AROUND!!!!

Our group of 6 dined here on a Friday evening prior to an event across the street at the Opera House venue. Service was excellent and we were able to enjoy a leisurely dining experience from start to finish. We each ordered various menu items of tacos, burritos, quesadillas, salads, nachos, tortilla chips, salsas, and margaritas and everyone was very complementary and would return for repeat visits when in the area. Prices were a terrific value for quality and quantity of food items. I personally had the tacos pescado with option of flour tortillas instead of corn. These were delicate grilled and seasoned tilapia filets nestled in with shredded purple and green cabbage atop and 2 accompanying sauces to drizzle per preference. The plate also included white rice with a smattering of diced vegetables for appealing color and texture as well as a small green salad topped with avocado slices, tomato, cucumber, and a couple of lime wedge garnish for the tacos. I also want to add that I was VERY impressed with the extensive and authentic large menu!!! Menudo, pozole, octopus, and so many items that knocked my socks off. Noise level mild to moderate as the dining areas filled on a Friday evening. It was an easily accessible property from the corner of Short Street near the parking garage. Decor was festive and appealing to the eye. Every employee we encountered was welcoming and helpful. Looking forward to returning soon.
