   Our waitress was also the bartender, Maile. We had a great experience thanks to her. She knew the menu well, had great recommendations and the food was tasty! Ambience is super cute and Malie is an amazing bartender! Will definitely be back!

   There was fast service and amazing food. I enjoyed it very much and price was worth it. They have the best enchiladas ever.

   Service was good but food wasn’t anything special. The music didn’t match the vibe & the seating was awkward. Wouldn’t really come back

   Loved the ambiance on a Sunday evening. The food was delicious as were the drinks. Will definitely go back so I can try a different dish.

   I loved the food, the decorations, the staff was super friendly, food was a bit of a wait because they are very busy. However, wait time is definitely made up by the amazing service of the people who work there. They care about your event, they ask what you’re celebrating and they make it fun and unique. Don’t be afraid to ask for drinks that are not necessarily on the menu! Loved it! Will be coming back soon!

   Great food and atmosphere, however a little pricy for what it is. I had the mole wings and Waygu burger!

    Disappointed Doesn’t Even Cover It. We were seated early—which was the highlight of the night. Unfortunately, it went downhill fast. When we asked if the kids’ burrito could be made with black beans instead of pinto, the waiter flat-out said no—even though black beans were clearly listed on the menu. What the actual hell? When my wife said we needed a minute to look over the menu, he took that as a cue to disappear for twenty. We never got our drinks. To make matters worse, they sat us directly under blaring EDM speakers. Not only was the music objectively terrible, but putting young kids right under pounding speakers? Come on. When I finally went to ask the waiter what was going on, he gave a weak apology and basically told us we could “just go.” So we did. The fresh guacamole and honey butter tortillas were the only bright spot—two stars for that and that alone. But everything else left a bad taste in our mouths. We were really looking forward to this spot, and we walked away annoyed, hungry, and totally disappointed.
