We went to celebrate my friend's birthday and we had an amazing time :) The food was beautiful, and the staff was lovely. We ordered tacos, elotes, some chips and doughnuts to put some candles on. Highly recommended! Gracias ❤️

I really enjoyed this place. Really friendly and fast service, good vibe, the food is terrific. It’s a step up from G y G in price. Dinner for two with drinks will be in the $80-90 range. But it’s definitely worth it if you’re up for great Mexican in a fun place.
