This was my first time to go to the Mexican and what a great experience. This was a business dinner with some new clients during the home furnishings market. It’s close to the market center so it made it very convenient. The food and service are fantastic. This definitely won’t be my last time to dine in there.

The service is extraordinary. Everyone we interacted with especially our main server John Paul was gracious and attentive. We tried a couple of the canapes, unique and yummy. the ceasar is enough for 4 to share and the Corn and Truffle Beignets were a great beginning. the flavors were bold perhaps more sauces than we might usually enjoy on the mains. the broccolini had ginger dressing which was one of our favorites. the Sundae for dessert capped the evening! as others have mentioned it is "pricey" plan to drop over $200 per person.
