    The restaurant was interesting. We sat outside which was a nice night, although we didn't feel very safe. We were in an area that was full of homeless people. The were across the street in the park smoking weed and walking by our table asking for money. It's definitely not in an area I would want to walk around alone. I'm not sure I would go back just based on that. The food was good though

    I wasn’t a big fan of the music, it was kinda scary to be honest 😅 drinks were good, we didn’t really try the food . It would’ve been better if there was better music . Overall though everyone was very kind and knowledgeable.

    The bar/restaurant is one of the best experiences Portland has to offer. The drinks are fun and tasty. The food menu might be limited but it is absolutely amazing. Every item on the menu is bold, real and will blow your mind. A true gem! The birria takes the crown!

    We went last night and learned so much when we did a mescal and tequila flight. The staff is extremely knowledgeable about the different types of alcohol they serve from different parts of Mexico. The owner came out and explained the delicious dishes as well. We will definitely be going again.
