I got the octopus coctel "coctel de pulpo" and to me personally, it was really good. Been to many others and they don't taste near as good.

This is a Hobbs hidden gem I always heard about how good it is, but I never saw where it was located. From the outside, it does not look like much. But when you walk in, your jaw just may drop. The decor is beautiful. My favorite was the aesthetic plant wall. There’s so much space with room to really party in the back.The variety of hot sauces at the table, chef’s kiss. I love a place where I don’t have to ask for my favorite condiment The food was yummy. I took a risk and tried something new after our waitress explained what it was (the menu is in partially in Spanish, and I only know a little). The shrimp in my tacos ensenada were fried, and at first I was not sure about them because I am not a fried shrimp lover. I will eat them, but I do not yearn for them. Well, these were flavorful, and the breading was not bad at all. The sauce for the tacos did not have a spicy kick to me, but it was packed with flavor as well. The hot sauce and salsa at the table came in handy to give me the fire I desired. My favorite menu item was the charro beans, one of my favorite Mexican dishes. I had to wait on it, but it was worth it because the pork cracklings were made with love and care. The beans had a savory taste that touched my soul.The service was slow at the lunch hour, but there was only one server. There were not that many people, so that may explain why there was only one server. Our server was still awesome and did the best she could. She did her thing, but she needed help for sure!
