    I loved everything we ordered, but my wife preferred the Panza taco over the Al Pastor, but we did finish all the tacos… 3 each and we shared a side of rice and beans and a Brussel sprout tostada, which was good but the beans on it threw us off. I suppose it made the brussel sprouts stick to the tostada. I also had a couple ounces of their whiskey barrel picks which were delicious as well and not too pricy! Stagg and Weller Full Proof picks were perfect! Stagg old fashioned was good, too. Not too sweet!

    The staff was very friendly, the food arrived very quickly, and everything was delicious! We will definitely return in the summer when the windows are fully open. It has a bit of a rooftop vibe on one side.

    We were able to sit at the counter by the window and watch all the passersby. The pimento spread was amazing and the service was incredible.

    Perfect time for our large group. We were upstairs which wasn’t too loud so we could actually hear each other talk.

    Loved everything about our brunch experience! They were hosting photos with Santa and our niece and nephew had the best time—Santa and the Grinch were walking around interacting with the kids! The space was also decorated to the nines for the holidays!! All staff was SO friendly and welcoming, and the food was great!
