Food options are excellent and varied with some great appetizers from a ceviche trio and guacamole trio to shrimp taquitos which were incredible. Drink selection of margaritas was large and tasty as well. Service excellent. Great selection of traditional Mexican as well as upscale interesting dishes as well.

Everything was fantastic. We love the ambiance, and the food is consistently delicious. Definitely get the cantina corn (elote), ask for it off the cob for ease. The tortillas are obviously made with care, warm and soft, and delicious. We got the mahi and chicken tacos and enjoyed all of the flavour layers. The chicken tacos (pollo asada) have quite the surprise kick if you're not careful, but it only enhances the taste.

Disappointing experience with *very* slow and inattentive service for most of the meal. No one even came to our table for a good 20(!) minutes and then our drink order was another 10+ minute wait. Food was lukewarm and we were not asked about it. Wrong appetizer delivered (and left) on our table. Service did improve eventually but for the price definitely expected higher level of attentiveness and better food quality, especially on a slow night.

Horrible service. I had a reservation and there was no host to greet us. It was very windy and sand was getting in our eyes so we walked in at sat ourselves at a high top table by the bar. There were a few people working and nobody came to check in on us. A couple of other locals walked up to the bar and the bartender was extremely helpful to them even though we had been sitting there first with no menus, no drink, and nobody even making eye contact. The staff was very rude and dismissive. I do come here often, about once every two weeks. The service is never that great but the food is always incredible. Today the service was nonexistent. I’m very disappointed.

Xmas evening dinner and even though fully booked the staff couldn't have tried harder to make our meal enjoyable. Some delays but clearly unavoidable due to how busy. Staff apologies appreciated but not necessary. We could see how hard they were working to make everything work.. Delicious entrees and mojitos.

Great potato taquito and chicken nachos - both had amazing flavor! Both had a fair amount of spice and heat but not enough to be off-putting. Probably the most memorable libations was the mai tai margarita. You’ve got to try it (or a couple!). Great service even during the night time (11-ish) bar crowd coming in.

So I feel everything needs just a tad bit more salt or acid to set the dishes over the top. The dishes always seem to need a little something extra. Ordered short rib taquitos, surf and turf enchiladas, fried shrimp street tacos, and the skirt steak.

Great spot on the promenade to people watch and eat Mexican Food! They make their own flour tortillas in house, and serve them with honey butter. This comes highly requested by my daughter on a weekly basis. The servers are all helpful and nice, and the salmon dish is the best. They have a fun rooftop area, as well!
