As it was our first visit to this style of Mexican restaurant, it felt a bit chaotic. That was down to us as much as the staff. We were not keen on having the entire order delivered at once, but the servers put that right without any hesitation. The food was excellent, and our resident margarita expert was more than satisfied.

The whole restaurant was hopping, and understandably why, the food was nicely laid out but more importantly absolutely delicious! Looking forward to trying more different dishes.
