Customer service was great. Came in with no reservation, we were seated even when the place was PACKEDD, our waiter was nice but there was minimum interaction. The food was not my favorite. The mash potatoes was sweet.. I had to add salt and pepper to my steak to eat it, the rice had to be eaten with the beans on it, didn’t like it by itself at all, the calamari I found to be unsalted but I realized later it’s meant to be eaten with the fried sausage bits that are salty. The drinks were great and pretty.

To start off waitress service – Horrible service the lady did not check on us once i asked about the food and she said its served how the menu says, im a waiter and personally its for a waiter to explain the dish .

Food is okay, the table guacamole is very nice, the Chicken enchiladas were a little dry and had way too much salsa Verde so I would suggest that on the side. The “fajitas” were a little crispy under the toaster too long and it’s not served in a hot skillet like traditional places. Flavor was good just laying something in the dishes

Very nice Mexican restaurant with great food and drink. Their tequila selection is pretty wide and well. Service was very friendly and attentive as well. The table side guacamole is a must-have. The potion was so big that I ended up taking half of it home. They have spacious indoor dining area and also few outside seating as well.

Been going here for quite some time now and they are amazing. They have found an elegant way to elevate the Mexican style food experience. I have tried numerous dishes here and I’m never disappointed. Always great specials. The friendly staff is always ready to make a fun time for you. Table side guacamole is a must and oh so yummy!!! Tequila tasting with a flight and some great margaritas. Call an uber and have fun!!! Thanks guys

Good customer service, good drinks but unfortunately the food is extremely subpar for the price. Such a lovely location but I could genuinely get better tacos from a food truck. You can taste the old oil in the chips. None of the food we received was “FRESH”. Good potential, maybe just caught them on a bad day.

The food is very good. Everything I’ve had here I haven’t had a complaint about. It always seemed a little pricier than I would expect. That may be my opinion though. Their margaritas are very good and I do like the table side guac. However, it always seems to come back to the fact that it always feels overpriced for what you’re getting.

Food tasted good at the table but something was off with dessert as if was going bad. Had the tres leches and it ruined my whole dinner. Also for being in a high traffic area it was quite empty for a weekend dinner. That should of tipped me off that something is not right there.

A nice, relaxed weekday dinner in a large and airy space, over authentic and fresh Mexican food. Loved the ambience, the right volume of music, the attentiveness of wait staff, the crisp professionalism exhibited all through. Table nachos were warm and crisp, served with red and green salsa. The fajitas were great, the carne asada was spectacular. Flan, tres leches, and hazelnut brownies finished off a great evening.
