Best WLM Reviews

Came here late night after a photoshoot in the city. Treated the people I was with to a nice meal. I called to see if there was a wait. The person on the phone was very helpful and it was not busy, so we could get in. They greeted us very kindly and sat us upstairs. My only complaint is that the fans made it cold after coming in from rainy weather. I suggest coming here during (Happy Hour) as the food and drinks are very pricey, but understandable as the quality of the food was worth it. The house made tortillas were warm and delicious. The queso, salmon, and guacamole appetizers were delicious and filling. Pineapple Margarita hit the spot. All the tacos they have are superb. Very delicious late evening option if you want quality food.
Went to this place yesterday. It was there happy hour time. We ordered guacamole and chips. Chips were so many. Guacamole was so good. It was amazing. Later we ordered mushroom and chicken taco. They were so good and fulfilling. Loved the vibe of the restaurant and the service was amazing so fast.they have a cute patio outside too.
Hell yeah to this place. The kitchen being in front of the joint is super cool and the chefs were more than awesome. The chef explained to us the octopus taco is flown in after being flash frozen from Spain. The chef’s guacamole was fire literally! Back to this octopus taco, maybe it wasn’t the tastiest thing however it includes a legit whole tentacle from an octopus so the experience itself was super cool. My only hope is that the ownership of this place realizes how cool it is and franchises it so we can enjoy in more cities. Super polite and really cool, maybe not a family friendly place because they have a portrait of a naked woman on the wall beside a picture of Jesus at the last supper and Jesus’s crew is having tacos hahahaha. Super cool spot glad we stumbled upon this gem.
Delicious! Make a reservation to make sure you have a seat. Perfect location if you are going to a show nearby.
We got to sit outside on the park benches that let us look right into the kitchen. Being able to watch the kitchen work was a fun change over where we usually sit inside. As always, the food was amazing. We had the tako taco, chorizo taco, chips n salsa, and salmon poke. It was just the right amount of food for two hungry people, almost too much.... almost...
fair warning: the chorizo is a messy taco, delicious sausage and runny egg going everywhere. Order it for sure, just have that napkin ready :)
Great spot to enjoy food and drinks. The atmosphere is nice. The food is tasty. We went after a Steelers game, so it can get really crowded. I would suggest making a reservation on days that games are held in the city.
super amazing food- i mean, wow! the tacos here are just incredible. everything is so fresh and that truly makes the difference in my opinion. the staff was very friendly and accommodating, very knowledgeable about the menu.
we sat outside and the atmosphere is cozy but also chic- you’d never guess it’s right on the road.
the outdoor eatery bar they have in front of the restaurant is very cool as well, i think it offers a unique dining experience- but also in a comfortable way.
the baja tacos were my favorite by far and the spicy pineapple marg was fabulous!!! (keep in mind that it is serrano pepper- NOT jalapeños- so it’s got a liiiittle more of a kick)
the queso was ridiculously good- it was still steaming when it got to our table
highly recommend stopping by this place for some really great food :)
This place has a TON of tequilas to choose from (and plenty of scrumptious margaritas to try them in) but do not overlook their food menu. Even though there are only a handful of tacos on their menu, they pair pretty excellently with whatever it is you choose to drink. Try the mushroom tacos even if you're not vegetarian -- they look like pork BBQ and have the texture of fried chicken!
It is rather loud (plus we went during the holidays so they had even more colorful lighting than usual), and it can get crowded (not sure if they have seating options for larger groups) but it's a very fun atmosphere and a perfect kickstart to an evening downtown.
