    Overall we enjoyed dinner, the staff was very accommodating and friendly. The kitchen was probably the weakest link of our experience. Desserts came out before main courses for part of the party and had to be sent back to keep them from melting all over. The table did get quite cluttered of dishes several timesband we could not fit anything else they brought to the table and get nothing was hauled away.The grilled cod was overall good,.the shrimp cocktail was good but the ceviche in the cocktail was the best we had ever had. The apple cinnamon tamales were absolutely fantastic for all who had them. It was a holiday and we had 7 In our group. I will definitely come back to try it again on a regular night to check out the normal menu. Hopefully a better experience and I will adjust my review accordingly.

    This was our first visit and it was outstanding all the way around. The staff, including the owner, was super friendly and welcoming. We’ll be going back and taking friends. Lastly, it was nice to have dedicated parking in an area of town where parking can sometimes be hard to find
