During our brunch visit we experienced very loud noise to a point of not being able to converse normally, the photo taking characters were so plentiful that sometimes disturbed our visit, I ordered the carnitas tacos but could not eat because it was mostly adipose tissue not meat. The locale and decoration was nice though.

Unfortunately, did not enjoy our experience. The food was just fair. Hard to communicate with waiter. Missing food. Long wait time for drinks and condiments once food arrived. Music and dj are very loud. Draws a very interesting crowd. Will not be returning.

Very loud, rushed service. Pomegranate margarita was literally juice. Go here if you don’t plan to talk to your friends. Only there to take selfies and videos of yourself eating bubbles and dancing with sharks. (And I love bad bunny but this place a little circus like.

This place is super overrated, crowded and service though friendly, was super slow and disregarding. They never came back to check on us after having us wait for our food for a really long time. I had to go to the bar to ask for more water and another drink. We couldn’t wait to leave.
