Sopes were delicious and for Wise the best plate of the night.



Chips and Salsa were free and very nice…I liked the guac a lot…it had a unique hint of lime moreso than others …adding the grasshoppers gave it the salt that it needed which really set it off…could have been better though just needs to add more kick on the back end…I didn't taste any jalapeños…again you have to get the grasshoppers as they added a great crunch and saltiness to the dish



The Carne Asada tacos were the hit of the night for me…holy cow they were delicious…also look how much protein is on there, the tacos are huge…I will say I had one piece of grizzle and Wise had 3 or 4 which is not good at all but the potential is there for sure



the Squash blossom quesadillas were good but not spectacular…my fiancee asked for jalapeños to be brought out because it also had no kick to it..both of us were surprised by that because Aaron Sanchez loves spicy foods so much…that coupled with the lack of kick in the guac could be improved…also too much cheese we thought in the quesadilla..it still tasted good but room for improvement



The brussel sprouts were the highlight of the night for the ole lady…she liked them better than Peche and I agreed they were amazing…unlike most restaurants, these did not have a hint of butter taste in them…they also used tiny fresh jalapenos as well as pomegranate seeds which I thought was a great combo of flavors


Barbacoa as OBrah said were pretty salty and greasy



the shrimp tacos were good…but the shrimp tasted more like the type of shrimp you would get in a sweet & sour shrimp meal from a chinese place…I would have preferred just grilled shrimp on the taco….still tasty nonetheless



overall, I was very satisfied with my meal and can't wait to go back….our server had a lot of personality, Besh was all over the place making sure things went well. Service did screw up our food by forgetting to put in some of the tacos and the brussel sprouts but they gave them to us for free…it was like having a second meal which was why we all needed a wheelbarrow to get out of there….great addition to the city!
