Overall I enjoyed my experience. I did feel it look a long time for someone to come to my table. Someone other than the waitress noticed and asked if I would like anything to drink and she was attentive. It took awhile for the waitress to get to our table. Other than that, the food and drinks were amazing. More

Everything we tried was really really good. You know you're in for a good meal when the chips are fresh and the salsa has a nice kick to it. So happy the sopa de elote was vegetarian ... super yummy. The margaritas were balanced perfectly - not too sweet. And everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meals. Lots of street parking nearby. We will definitely be back! More
