We came here on a Saturday in between games for our two son’s basketball tournament. It was great! We were able to sit on the patio and watch the NBA playoff game. About an hour in the live music started, which was so fun and entertaining. The margaritas were 10 out of 10. The bottomless chips were delicious! They were even able to deal with my onion allergy (I know 😒) and made me a delicious grilled chicken without onions. My husband had the enchilada and taco combo and said it was excellent, the only thing he changed on Sunday (yes it was so good we went back 😋) was adding a flour tortilla to the enchilada instead of the corn. My mom had the three taco sampler and my dad had the shrimp tacos. We came back Sunday and celebrated my belated birthday with our kids. Two of them enjoyed the 3 taco sampler with carne asada and chicken. Like my husband they opted for flour tortillas. And my other son got the enchilada and taco combo, which he loved! We can’t wait to go back again!

If you're looking for a nice sit down restaurant that serves fantastic food, look no further. Xclusive Taqueria Moderna checked many of our boxes, from the food, the atmosphere to the friendly service! I always know of Xclusive's existence but we never actually came by. However, we made the leap to try it out on a Thursday afternoon and I can't believe we waited so long to do so. Their restaurant had a welcoming atmosphere and waiter was friendly. I had the pleasure of trying their pork belly tacos and a carne asada burritos. The pork belly was like butter, literally melts in your mouth the moment you taste it. I had my burrito in a wet-style and it was the flavor bomb. The meat was well-cooked and was packed with beans, guac, pico. It was delicious. My partner and I ordered a guacamole appetizer to share. It was creamy and decadent, and the homemade chips were a great addition. My partner also enjoyed his crispy tacos platter and chicken mole taco. Everything we ordered was delicious. I loved the food, the staff and the friendly environment. I look forward to coming back.

Food quality has fallen and I give this place 6-8 months before the For Lease sign is up. I’m done with this place. My wife and I ordered the chicken fajitas and it’s clear the chicken was cooked either way earlier in the day or yesterday. It was very dry and overly seasoned. It’s a clear when poor quality like this is served that you are in crisis mode and you’re trying to save money by recycling old product to keep the doors open. The Cadillac margarita used to be my favorite here. I tasted a lot more mix this time in my drink and not much alcohol. Another sign of this restaurant’s demise. Service is always very good but I will not be dropping $130 for food and drink of this intentional poor quality.

Definitely recommend!!! Food was delicious especially the tacos 🌮 they were a perfect mix of seasoning, crunch and spice. The service was also impeccable, mateo greeted us and was very polite and friendly, it’s always great to have service with a smile! Definitely coming back!

Tacos and food overall were only average. Service was pretty terrible. The waitress forgot to bring a drink order and didn’t provide any place settings or napkins for our meals. We had to remind her that we need the basics after the meal came. Waitress further forgot that she was serving our table and didn’t check up on us which required me to prompt a different server for our check. Later spoke in Spanish while we were leaving to another employee “did they pay” which further disappointed given the fact that she forgot about us when the restaurant was not busy. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant and think it’s definitely overrated with the current rating.

After hearing how amazing this place was, we had to try it out for ourselves. Let me tell you, it didn't disappoint! The staff was very friendly and prompt when bringing out drinks and chips with salsa and warm beans. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, and the decor is classy. This is the kind of place you could bring your family for a nice dinner or hang at the bar with a buddy for a drink and tacos while watching a game. For his drink, hubby had a pineapple margarita, which he loved (nice and strong), and we started off with guacamole, which was super fresh and had great flavor. Hubby has the shrimp and lobster enchiladas with a tangy red sauce. They were a large portion and also served with fresh avocado. I had a delicious chili verde, served with white rice and tortillas. We had really wanted to try dessert but were too full. We can't wait to come back again to try out more on the menu!

I went to try 2 of my favorite foods and since I heard that they make tacos out of these items aaaaaand it was Taco Tuesday, well here I come. Pork Belly and calamari tacos. Very tasty. The chips with a small side of beans and the salsas were spot on. I'll be back for sure.

Very good food and friendly staff! The inside is very nice and clean. It was our first time here so we tried a Carnitas burrito, Chile Verde taco and Pork Belly Taco. Everything was delicious. Will definitely be going back!
