Since opening in early 2025, it’s become a neighborhood go-to for creative tacos and margarita flights.

Fried Chicken Taco, Ahi Tuna Taco, Margarita Flight
What makes it special: Inventive taco mashups with a fun, patio-first Brentwood vibe.
Worthy Picks
A neighborhood trattoria that blends Italian comfort plates with a smaller Mexican-leaning cantina side, anchored by a full bar and happy hour. Food execution is most dependable on the Italian classics, while the casual, cozy room keeps it popular for low-key dinners. Reviews are more mixed than the top taquerias, but it clears the bar for a solid, convenient Brentwood option.
Must-Try Dishes:
Fettuccine Alfredo, Carne Asada Taco Plate, Margarita + Chips & Salsa
What makes it special: Rare Brentwood spot doing Italian staples plus cantina cocktails under one roof.
