    There were a lot of brunch options and even vegetarian options. The portions of each plate were a good size. There was no rush to work through our meals and it was a nice experience for a date, celebration, or just grabbing a bite

    The restaurant was fantastic. The waiter was very knowledgeable. The supplemental staff was very helpful. The food and the flavors were out of this world. If I had any complain at all, it was with the music when we first arrived being extremely loud, but it calmed over the evening.

    We had a wonderful time celebrating our 3rd anniversary at Xalisko. The food was outstanding and service was spot on. My only slight disappointment was that the restaurant didn't even comp us a dessert for our anniversary celebration. We throughly enjoyed our dinner.
