A: The ice tea was good.. So fake. Food was bland and dry and no thought processes. Waitress didn't even ask how my food was. Because she knew it sucked. Oh one other thing about the menu. For lunch 1 taco with rice and beans $5.95. regular menu 2 tacos, rice and beans $8.95????

Q: negative

A: The only reason I have come back to this place is because of the groupon deal they offer but the service is awful and they treat their costumers so bad, none of them are friendly and sound rude when they talk to you. Last time I will go there after i am done using my last groupon from them

A: Alright people, this is as good as it gets in PITTSBURGH. You all know the city isn't the greatest with Mexican food, but this place is the exception. I'm from Los Angeles, the messiah of Mexican food...and I always go to Mexico City for their tacos. It's not as cheap as LA, of course not because of the lack of Mexican food in Pgh, but their wet burrito is pretty good, their beers are cheap, it's never crowded, they are super friendly and prompt with service, and I love their carne asada tacos. It comes with rice, which I'm not used to, so sometimes I'll ask for it with everything except rice. I give them credit for keeping their menu simple, authentic, and satisfying. I love that's in Downtown and walking distance. There's not much cultural food like them in downtown, so it is definitely appreciated. I've been to Las Velas and hated it and really, you can't compare this place to that when their dishes and way of serving food and preparation is totally different.

Funny how I can't cook to save my life and I am always browsing through their kitchenware. Although I'm not an avid tea drinker, I like to pretend I am and I've bought a couple tea sets from here that are quite darling. There's an amazing olive oil section that blows my mind--a bit pricey but I've been cooking quite a bit with EVO and experimenting is fine by me. There's also a great selection off to the right of the store that holds appropriate gifts for weddings, mothers and such. I like looking through cards and love the journals I've found here. One of these days I will be worthy enough to purchase quality pots and pans and cutlery from their upstairs gallery. Before the summer is up, I aim to take a cooking class here. For sure with Shinji Muramoto, yes as in THE Restaurant Muramoto and Sushi Muramoto. Cute and quaint. If you are here after 4, make sure not to park on the street as they will tow.
