Good place to come to if you would like to chill and listen to some nice music. Came here 1 time and had the time of my life! I can’t wait to stop by again and have some fun The best part of the night was that everyone was so freaking nice. We all danced, laughed, and sang!

They will only sell you beer by the bucket. Is a shame, there was at least 3 more couples that left because they finished their beer but the music and atmosphere was still good. They are latterly letting money walk out the door. The Calamari was delicious, quesadilla was just ok and no salsa sauce; not very big portions for the $.

I wish I could subtract stars. Last night was a terrible experience. I won’t complain about the price and the food wasn’t bad. The waitress were nice, however, the DJ/Karaoke host is a nightmare. He is clearly lazy, narcissistic and disrespectful. He would repeat long songs on loop to avoid mixing or doing his job. Boring! Don’t expect a lot from the karaoke, he’ll sing all night (doesn’t sing bad) but a karaoke is not a personal concert. This is why people don’t cheer or give you his applause, you might sing well but your attitude clouds your voice.

Totally loved the atmosphere and loved how the interior looked. The food was good but the drinks were way too strong. A few of them tasted like it wasn’t mixed properly. All in all not a bad spot for a date night.

Came in on a Tuesday night. Music was very loud. Menu was overall expensive $12 for a glass of wine in Jackson heights? They charged for chips and salsa $7. I get that free at most Mexican restaurants. Service must have been off because there was no one there and neither was the waitress. But the food was good.

Music too loud, portions really small, prices aren’t cheap or fare, servers are ok is not their fault, management should think about making changes. Defenetly not a good portion to share, to make it up an only because my wife complaint we were offered a complementary 4 shrimps. be more honest with the prices for the food you serve.

As a Mexican.. this restaurant is disgusting and a disappointment. The quesadilla is soggy, the nachos are just chips and steak thrown on with lettuce. Do not come here for good Mexican food.
