      WTF is a solid neighborhood bar. I love that they're so engaged with the community, and that they come out to sell margs when there are movies in the street, etc. Their margs are great, bartenders are great, but most often I get margs to go because I don't love being in the space. It's got a little bit of a chaotic vibe, and is usually pretty loud. I do frequent the patio in the summer, but it is on a busy road so not the most chill vibes?

      Biggest down side is that the table service is hit or miss. We came close to kitchen-last-call one night and had a super weird interaction with a server who (first of all sat down at our table un-invited .. we didn't know him) and *kinda* said the kitchen was closing, but then let us order, but was weird about it. So we ate, but felt bad? It was so weird.

      As far as the tacos - they're solid. Lots of options traditional and non-traditional.

      We were meeting up with some people and decided to meet here for Cinco. This was my first time here and I was excited to check it out. As you can imagine it was crazy busy. The service was a tad slow but nothing unexpected. We ordered nachos and queso and ate every bite. We got margaritas and just enjoyed our time together. I like the vibe in here. I would absolutely come back!

      Okay, but not fantastic. My first impression was really bad as some woman (not my server) came up and immediately berated me for "seating myself". I informed her there was a sign up front that said to seat yourself. Of course she just looked mad I called her out on her BS and then gave me the most unconvincing "oh, sorry, didn't realize" in response.

      Our actual server, super nice. Me and my friend each got tacos, which were supposed to be on happy hour special. We had to remind our server about it. We started with chips and salsa; the salsa was definitely from a jar and not homemade but it was fine. I got the chimchurri steak and I loved the sauce, but the steak was a bit over cooked for my personal liking. The rock and the carnitas taco was by far my favorite. The "soft crunchy soft chicken" was okay.

      Drinks were good. I love the peanut butter old fashioned which I had in the past and wanted to come back to try the food. It was pretty obvious they wanted us out, since our server threw the check down and didn't ask if we wanted anything else. Overall, I'm not impressed. For the price and service, I'll just stick with Imperial.

      Visited here recently, & mostly unimpressed. Is it a restaurant? Is it a bar? Bar with food, I think.
      We ordered chips & queso, which was good but VERY spicy. Chips are the thicker type of tortilla chips.
      We each ordered a couple of tacos. I got the steak with chimichurri--very little steak & grisly-chewy. Yuck. The other was the Asian chicken, which was pretty good. It's pieces of fried chicken & they were so fried, they were hard to chew. Husband had the Rock & Rye, a slow cooked pork, which he said was delicious. He also had the Asian Chicken.
      Total bar vibe, they added a stage to the front corner, and they had a private painting class going on in a partially closed off area in the middle. They have gone nights & karaoke.
      Our server was very attentive & friendly.

      If you are looking for a place to get tacos and a cold beer, this is the place. I would not say that the tacos are OMG the best I ever had, but they are very good. This place gets busy, and it gets a little loud. It's definitely a casual dining experience. I've been here a couple times now and service is good however their kitchen is small and they use it as an excuse sometimes if you have to wait. The menus pretty self-explanatory and pretty simple to navigate. Give it a try and make your own decision.

      First time here with a friend. I got the birria tacos and she got the fried avocado tacos. We also got chips & salsa which was just ok, the chips had uneven salt on them, so one bite might be plain, and the next was like eating a spoonful of salt.

      I ordered a side of rice & beans with my tacos. The birria tacos were pretty good, but either the dipping sauce or the tacos were a bit too spicy for me. My mouth was on fire - I don't enjoy that. I've never had birria tacos that spicy before, so it was hard to eat them, I didn't finish.

      The beans and rice were a disappointment - the beans were probably canned and just heated up, then they put a few sprinkles of cheese on top. The rice was flavorless, I mean flavorless. Even though it was reddish in color I couldn't taste anything - it was actually worse then just eating plain white rice.

      So - I'd probably go again just because it's super close to my house, but I'd skip the chips & salsa and try and different type of taco or something else and hope things are better next time.

      I'm so happy I stumbled upon this place! It definitely exceeded expectations and was a fantastic experience. Very friendly and attentive service. I loved the food!! Every bite was packed full of flavor. Every bite was full of the freshest ingredients and I could taste the homemade touch. Fresh and spicy salsas. I enjoyed the homemade chips and red salsa given to us when we sat down, and I thoroughly enjoyed my cheese enchiladas, topped with salsa verde. The sides of rice and beans were top notch too. The rice had excellent flavor and the beans were creamy and topped with cheese. My friend really liked her birria tacos too.

      I had a yummy cocktail called "I Carried A Watermelon", which was a rum cocktail with watermelon purée and topped with fresh mint. Excellent cocktail and wine list.
      I was also happy to see that Detroit City Distillery Whiskey was featured here too. I'm a big fan.

      I was plenty full but I couldn't resist their homemade churros for dessert! Wow!! So good!

      There are two dining rooms and a bar area too. Large free parking lot in the back.

      This restaurant also has a whiskey society that hosts monthly events and I'm planning on joining.

      What a great find!!

      This is one of my go-to places in Clawson. I have a gluten allergy and never have an issue when coming here and eating. I just let my server know and they make sure to keep my tacos separate for anyone who is eating gluten at my table. I always get the beans and rice with no issues. I have eaten the chips but be aware that they are in a shared fryer so if you have a super sensitive allergy, don't eat those. But they have soft corn tortillas and amazing margaritas! Whenever we come here, we always feel welcomed and love the vibes of the place. Always great energy and hometown family feel. We also love that there is outdoor seating!

      An amazing local spot is full of characters and fresh ingredients which makes for creative and yummie food options.

      Great space inside that is not too loud. Did not sit outside but it was popular.

      The best salsa in Michigan, imo. Loved my stuffed poblano and tacos disappeared quickly! Bartender was great and helpful picking from thier large selection of beers and custom drinks.

      They have trivia and bands weekly and a parking lot in back...with no requirement to back in your vehicle
