Problem: The S/O got a coupon from restaurant.com to go here and I'm glad we did. We took the kids this time. This place is pretty close to home which is even better. Its a small place but those tend to be the best places. The owner greeted us and was making pizzas at the same time. This place is very kid friendly. The give them a big piece of butcher paper and the kids can draw. Its a great distraction for us parents! The owner also lets them hang their artwork on the wall. They GF was very happy because they had gluten free pizza too! Its pretty rare and a great treat for her. We got a few big pizzas for everyone to share and an order of their famous garlic knots. The kids watched their pizzas being made and loved it. They pizza maker tosses the pizza in the air old school style. It really is an art form. I wish I could do that! The pizza was delicious and kid approved too. The crust had great texture and was perfectly cooked. The gluten free pizza was pretty good too. It didn't have the rubbery texture most of them have. The garlic knots, OMG they were AH MAZ ING! They are the best I have ever had. I had to tell the GF they were terrible and I choked on them since she is gluten free. SHHHH! All in all, it was a great visit. We will be back again for sure.

Problem: This place is a freakin' joke from the beginning. Let me preface this review by saying we had a group of 5, and 4 of us had 2 drinks before our 5th got her mojito. It seemed as if the bartenders were capable of doing a beer or margarita, but nothing even remotely complex (not that mojitos are really complex.) The food was absurd, and a joke to call it "mexican." I was sick all night, as were two of the girls in the group, and one guy. The service in the restaurant portion was the exact opposite of the bar, and was very precise, even though they were bringing out sizzling hot plates of death. It's a fun place to go and have a drink before or after your dinner which hopefully is taking place elsewhere in Old Town. It's also a fun atmosphere on Tuesday nights, when you see all walks of life. I think if they changed the name to crappy taco, so as to lower my expectations, I might like the restaurant quite a bit.

Problem: Terrible!!! 2nd time we have ordered from this location. Wait over an hour both times and we live less than 5 min away. Main thing is taste is disgusting. Taste just like store bought digiorno. Hard crust. Way more crust than cheese and just no flavor!!!! Going back to dominoes &/or papa johns

Problem: This place has 5 star potential, but the service brought it down to 4. A friend and I sat at the bar for happy hour here at what was fated to be a tour of sliders in downtown... but that part of the story comes later. The place was busy, as I imagine it is typically for happy hour. Their happy hour drink menu leaves much to be desired... it only has 4 simple cocktails that don't really show off what this place is all about (elaborate and creative cocktails). We both tried the Tea cocktail that was on special for 6$. It was alright, very strong tea flavor which covered the vodka taste very well... in fact, it didn't taste much like alcohol at all... oh, but it had alcohol. These puppies were strong (haha unintentional pun), and both of us felt it. Here is when the problem arose. We sat at the bar for another 30-40 minutes and couldn't get the attention of any of the bartenders. We tried making eye contact to no avail. We really wanted to order food and I wanted to get another drink. Finally, about 1 minute before happy hour ended we slid in an order of happy hour sliders (heh) and I got a caribe drink of sorts (it had tequila, pineapple, other delish things...). The food and drink got to us quickly, so we were happy. I must say, the sliders were some of the most delicious sliders I have ever tasted... the pork belly was perfectly cooked and not overly fatty, they were delicate and all of the flavors worked together (pork, kimchi, hawaiian roll.... pure bliss). Oh ya, my drink was good too. So my tip is... do come for happy hour, get the snacks, but skip the weak happy hour drink specials and cough up the dough for one of their specialty drinks. I will definitely be back!
