    Our waiter appeared uncomfortable. He was too overbearing at times, then he was missing when we needed service. He also required reminders to bring the items we asked for. He did not celebrate our special occasion listed on the reservations.

    The food was really really good, I wasn't disappointed with any of the items I ordered. The drinks could use a little help though (sandria, not so good). Also, this is a dog friendly place to eat. I didn't realize that prior to going

    Absolutely fabulous experience! We all had passports, and each portion size was huge. Easy to share, tapas type style, yet with even more food then we could eat. All of the flavors are creative spins on the original. Drinks were super cheap with the passport, and reasonable without. Staff was super busy on a Friday night, but our waiter Josue, made us feel important from beginning to end. He was passionate about the food, and made us excited to be there. The manager also dropped by to make sure we were happy. Highly recommend!

    I went here for the first time with a friend and we enjoyed every minute. Our service was great and were even moved inside when it started to rain. We got the bottomless brunch menu and tried many different items. Everything was delicious. The vibe inside and outside was lively and fun. Will definitely go back to try dinner.

    Two women brought their dogs (large) and it made everyone in my party uncomfortable. The dogs stood up every time someone walked by and we where there for brunch. Wrong time and place for family pets. Everyone don't eat with their pets. The food was coming out slower than usual but everything tasted delicious. We do plan on returning.

    Lovely dining experience with friendly staff and delicious food selections. The music is loud but adds to the classic partying brunch vibe, if that’s your cup of tea. Lots of artwork to view while waiting for flavorful dishes hot from the kitchen. It’s a great brunch spot and there’s plenty of free parking to boot!

    We had an emergency with our child just as we arrived. Our waiter was very understanding and gave us space to sort it out over the phone. He was outstanding the entire time, making sure we understood the menu, making recommendations about food, telling us how to place our orders to get the best experience, etc. The food was excellent and the restaurant lovely overall.

    Josue was one of the most amazing servers I’ve had in my adult dining experience. He was most pleasant and enthusiastic. Very knowledgeable and helpful with suggestions on the menu extraordinarily pleasant, he was prompt. He anticipated needs. He made sure that we were taken care of entirely it was a great experience, and I will always come back.

    The first time I went to this restaurant was late on a Saturday night near closing. The kitchen was open late and the food was spectacular, especially for bar hopping. I was excited to bring my wife there, especially for the sliders; however, this time there was barely any meat in them. The meat was like a condiment. It was extremely disappointing, as it was the main reason I took her there. We tried the steak skewers, but 2 out of 3 of them were raw. We requested a correcton, and the new ones were very overcooked. It’s sad when you return something raw, they give you something as hard as rubber back. Just because we didn’t want to reat raw meat doesn’t mean we don’t want it medium rare, which is what it’s supposed to be. The waitress (who was outstanding) agreed she wouldn’t have eaten the ones that were raw. We were too burned out to complain anymore, and I ate more rubber steak than I should have, another deep disappointment. Bummer, because the flavor of the steak is great otherwise. I’m guessing this place has a big problem with consistency. This experience was so poor, I don’t want to go back. Some of the dishes are amazing if you are lucky enough to be there on the right day. Others should be taken off the menu and replaced with something better. I’m a big Butter Chicken fan, and there’s is a failed attempt at it. We weren’t fans of the eggplant either, which was difficult to chew and had entirely too much sauce; can’t taste the food. Anyway, best of luck, visitor!

    Went at brunch time on a Saturday. Didn’t understand that we were ordering “small plates” but that’s what they were. Menu was not that interesting. One order came out, the other person’s didn’t arrive until a half hour later. Food wasn’t particularly good. Not a great experience, won’t be back.

    We arrived and were greeted warmly and offered the option of which section we’d like to sit in. We were advised that Happy Hour ran until 9 in the bar area until 9. After looking at the Happy Hour selection we decided to try it. We definitely made the right choice! Neither of us was drinking but they had a few nice nonalcoholic cocktails so we got a couple and they were delicious! We tried the spicy chicken sliders, the shrimp tacos, lumpia, the Mexican street corn, the pizzas, the brussels sprouts, and the jerk chicken skewers. Each item was packed with flavor and freshness! The spice wasn’t overwhelming but just enough heat to wake up a sleeping palette! I’m looking forward to going back to try the Passport option where you can get any 5 items on the menu.

    This is my go to place for brunch! I’ve never had a bad experience. This time it was so loud inside I could not have a conversation with my friend that I was bringing for her birthday. We asked to be moved outside, which they did accommodate so that was nice. We were kind of stuck in a corner and forgotten about for most of the time. They also changed their menu and moved most of their good stuff to dinner. This was my most disappointing trip there.
