    We went at 5:25 right when they opened and the service was great. Speedy and attentive. Drinks were great. Music was a vibe. It’s close to TD Garden so once the Celtics game ended, more people came in and when you go later at night, there is a lounge downstairs. Good place, I would surely go back

    The place is nice if you’re just hanging out with friends or for night life. We went there for a birthday dinner, and they seated us on a dark side of the room and nothing special. The waitress was rushing, and did not accommodate our request. Food is good but very spicy, and desserts were not that good. The place is cute for pictures, non-kid friendly.

    The experience overall was terrible. The best part was the waiter who was friendly but not very attentive, especially since we were his only customers. The food was not at all like advertised on the menu, very basic with any and all additions being an additional charge, which was too much considering the amount and quality of the food. Overpriced and overrated, we will not return.

    The food was GREAT! The chicken fajitas had a ton of flavor & they give you multiple salsas to sample when you order the chips and salsa which were all delicious and unique. The only issue is that our server was clearly unaware of menu items and it was difficult communicating with her to the point where another server had to take our order with her. Just seemed very young and inexperienced but we enjoyed the food and ambience for a friday night girls night, nonetheless.

    Stopped for dinner and should have left right away. Restaurant had a saturating, unpleasant odor -- burnt plastic is the best way I can describe it. That sets the tone for an unpleasant eating experience. Next, terrible service. Waitress barely stopped by your table, which was way too small for three people. Very cramped once food came out. Appetizer was so so and the tacos I have to say were superb. Last, but not least -- the noise level. They blast most awful music that probably does not get airplay anywhere else. Extremely loud, could barely hear myself think much less have a conversation with my party. It's too bad that very poor service and poor ambiance take away from the great quality of the food. We got out of there as quickly as we could and I would not recommend.
