Now upstairs in hip, expanded digs, the creative Mexican fare has made it a must-stop in Charleston. The menu has lots of locally inspired touches, like tortillas made from a house-ground combination of Mexican and South Carolinian corn."

"I love this spot for affordable but elevated Mexican food. The tortillas are made fresh in house each day, and they're so fresh." — marissae459577432"
