"While the food was decent, it didn't justify the price we paid. The tacos, which we anticipated would be sizable for $6-7, turned out to be no larger than the size of our palms, leaving us quite surprised when they arrived. Additionally, the shrimp salad contained only about four shrimp. Though the flavors were enjoyable, there simply wasn't enough food for the two of us. We left still feeling hungry and ended up going to a more affordable pub across the street for more food and drinks. I wouldn't recommend this place; it's overpriced, especially considering the other good dining options available in the area. It's worth noting that we don’t want to criticize the staff, as they provided excellent service, but the pricing and portion sizes are not a sustainable business model."

Food and drinks here are always delicious and the staff is very friendly and attentive. We understand they will be closed for the next 6 to 7 weeks for a revamp but a new location is open in the DTC. Highly recommend

Smallish menu but plenty of great choices and we certainly had plenty to eat. Poblano enchilada starter, chopped salad, lamb taco and veggie samosa taco were all really good. Salsas were fresh, house made and tasty; just the right amount of heat. Liked that the pineapple jalapeno marg wasn't too sweet. Surprising that it wasn't busier, although it's a new area and still lots of construction.

Wow! What a nice surprise! Spent time at hospital for some testing, Left exhausted in pouring rain, needing some good Mexican food. Found this small restaurant nearby. It was not real busy but had few hungry others eating. The limited menu allowed for everything to be prepared perfectly within a reasonable time. The full bar is a bonus! Highly recommend. A little tricky to find but worth the mission! View menu

Expecting hearty tacos for the $6-8 price, I was taken aback when the tacos arrived. They were literally the size of my palm and hardly satisfying at all. To fill the gap, we ordered a salad as well, but at $17, it felt overpriced and was mostly comprised of lettuce. After spending $40 for three underwhelming tacos and one salad, we left still hungry. We ended up heading over to Cedar Creek Pub, which offered a much better value for similar food.

I have been here now 3 times. My first time was amazing but things have obviously changed. The older lady working around 6p on 5/30/2023 was rude as h . She didn't seem to want to be at work.In addition, I have ordered the same thing each time, the birria tacos. Initially the birria tacos were FULL sized tacos, cooked to perfection with a large side of consome. The last 2 times here, the birria tacos have now moved from a FULL size to a street taco size. Why?

Additionally, they automatically add a 20% tip, even when the service is poor and your group is small. You only discover this at the end of your meal, which feels deceptive. The portions of food are small compared to the prices, and the menu is very limited. I’ve attached a copy of the receipt, which shows that we ordered just two Cokes, with no alcoholic drinks. The overall experience was overpriced for the quality, quantity, and especially the poor service from the staff. I recommend saving your money and choosing a different location, like the pub across the street. View menu

Had a reservation at 7:00 and arrived early, about 6:45. It was a good thing we did because they rushed us and wanted us out shortly after 8:00. We had one large margarita each at $22 each (a bit pricey in my opinion). It was good but that is a lot of money for a drink!Guacamole Hummus was a good appetizer but when we needed a few more chips to finish it, we were charged $2 extra.It was taco Monday, so we got those at $5 each. It was my friend’s birthday so I mentioned that and there was no response. Not even a “happy birthday” greeting let alone a token of something to commemorate it. 20% gratuity added on for two people without a choice. A really expensive meal. The food was good but not a...

Food is always good, margaritas are always good. My problem is the prices. I visited Ambli a couple times prior to its rebranding and thought it was overpriced. Visited after the rebrand and was told they were trying to target the people in the area (med students, healthcare workers) which to me makes me feel they would lower prices. The first visit after rebrand I had 2 tacos (street tacos the size of my palm) that were $7 each and paid and an extra $5 for rice beans. The second time I got it to go, I paid $12 for a salad and an extra $5 for shrimp. I got 4 pieces of shrimp and it 's essentially chopped lettuce with some corn. OH plus 10% service charge for takeout containers??? Picture was...
