The food was fantastic. My cheese quesadilla tasted great and my brother and dad enjoyed their chicken enchiladas with green sauce. The staff is friendly and the food arrived quickly.

Very good restaurant. They have a good amount of fusion foods there. As an Asian, I was very impressed with the fried sushi roll. I also had the birria tacos and molcajetes and it was sooo good. They also had live music there, and it was super dope

$1.50 tacos were good for what they are priced for, but on the smaller side. Their chili sauce for the tacos has a kick to it. Chicken chipotle linguine is heavy, after a few bites we couldn't finish it. I would skip and try something else but it wasn't bad! Service was okay they were nice just not very attentive.

Armando's be hella poppin. If you like Mexican food but don't like Mexicano culture or our loud ass music, then don't show up to this spot n be a f'n kill joy. This place aint for uptight hueris. It's fo the people. La Banda is live and they slap! Don't forget to tip em in cash. The food was top notch. They give you that real carne asada not that bs diesmillo that other spots try to pass off as skirt steak. No, this is the real deal. Thank god. The aguachile was up to par and for my first time trying Mexican sushi it was pretty alright. I probably would do it again to be honest. In the men's restroom there was hella pictures of Latinidad, an appropriate display of culturally iconic images and intergenerational representations. Proper. I really appreciated that. Will definitely be back the next time I'm heading down this way!

Friendly and attentive staff. The restaurant ambiance gives a family type of vibe. We ordered a margarita flight. My favorite was the tamarindo very delicious and strong We ordered steak tacos and veggie tacos delicious and flavorful. The portions were big enough to take home. We will be back.

Came here on a Friday afternoon after work with a few of my work buddies! This place is smaller than what we imagined, however, they have it decorated nice. what we order: -FLIGHTS 5/5 it comes in various flavors -SHOTS 4/5 -COCTEL 4/5 -QUESABIRRIA 5/5 (big tacos with consume) The food is pretty good! Service is okay, wish it was a bit faster. They do tend to take their time! To the point where you have to look for them to get the bill and a box. But overall servers are very polite. Parking for this location is a bit hard because at times this place gets packed.

Came in on a monday for lunch & stayed till dinner... of course it was the catching up & drinking, but as long as they kept the cervesas coming, No Problem @ on the refills & them checking up on the table making sure you good, food & drinks, they are On It. Sushi, the rice was a little bit too wet for me, ceviche (seafood) not too much shrimp & a little bit too pricy. Nachos was alright but, you cannot mess up nachos if you have the works on it (if your a nacho lover) this is a must try. BirriaTacos, Yummm & the consume is cool vibe going on inside BUT the music a little bit too loud, especially if al your trynna do is chill, have some cervesas & catch up. Parking Sucks cause it's located in a mini plaza w/little to none parking for the other businesses in the same vicinity. Will be back of course, cause you can't try a place Once & base your whole opinion on that visit.

They do a taco Tuesday deal here which is hard to beat. Not a lot of taco places do them anymore. You get to choose from 7 different meats! When we went, the restaurant was packed and groups had to wait to be seated. Parking in the plaza is quite difficult to come by so you may have to drive around. If you go in a group of over 4, you automatically get charged a service fee.
