Not sure why this place doesnt have better reviews? It was excellent on all points. Good food (chicken verde enchiladas) and service. Loved sitting outside. Salsa and chips were my fav. I am here on a business trip and may go back again. I forgot to take pics of food I was so into eating it!

I am shocked this place does not have a 5.0 rating. I absolutely love every meal here! Our little family comes at least once a week, and the whole team is so sweet and accommodating. They have tons of indoor and outdoor seating, and can provide high chairs and ample space for your stroller. My one year old adores the rice and beans (as do we all!), super authentic and you get a giant side order for $4. The street tacos (3 for only $12!!) are a STEAL. You can choose from a bunch of different meats / veggies, but the steak is exceptional - super juicy and buttery. They do authentic Mexican tacos topped with cilantro and onions, and on the side - salsa (warning super spicy), radish, and grilled onion bulb. Just come give this place a try, they will have you coming back as a regular by the time you try their homemade fresh daily chips and salsa!

I made plans to meet a friend at Los Cuernos the other night, and I naively thought that we would easily be able to get a seat at the bar on a Wednesday evening around 6 pm. I did not know much about the restaurant, clearly! I arrived first and was shocked at how crowded and how loud the place was. I let the hostess know that I did not have a reservation, but would love a table since the bar was full. She mentioned that they had one high-top in the bar area or one table in the dining room. Despite the bar being packed with corporate types enjoying happy hour, I thought it would be more casual for my meeting with a prior colleague I had not seen in years. The hostess escorted me to the high-top, where I started looking at the menu while I waited for my companion. While I was sitting there, some of the neighboring people standing around my area, just made themselves at home, placing their drinks on my table. I was annoyed and started to feel super cramped. Luckily, another table away from the disrespectful group opened up, so I quickly moved. My friend arrived soon after that, and we were still able to partake in the happy hour specials, which lasted until 7:00 pm. We each ordered House Margaritas, which were only $7 at that time, rather than the still affordable $10 otherwise. The drinks were VERY strong, which is more of a warning than a complaint! They did have too much salt on the rim for my liking, though. Our drinks were paired with a bowl of complimentary tortilla chips and salsa, both of which were very tasty. Our server was attentive and checked in on us frequently, which, in a way, further enticed us to order food. I set my sights on the plate of 3 Tacos, which could be mixed and matched. I was bummed that chicken was not a taco protein option, though it was used in other items, like the enchiladas. Instead, I went with the Steak, Fish, and Pork varieties. The steak was tender and juicy; it was served with a side of spicy sauce that really had a peppery kick. I was not sure what type of fish was in the fried patty on that taco, but it was similar to a flaky cod. While I liked both of those, the moist carnitas, which was the server's recommendation, was my favorite. I really enjoyed my experience at Los Cuernos, but I would be sure to make a reservation the next time I visited. Also, while the happy hour was clearly a draw, the restaurant seemed like it would have a bustling bar scene on weekends as well.
