   We had reservations and when we were seated, it took 20 minutes and we finally had to flag someone down to take our drink orders. After we finally got a server, she was fabulous! I do think they should have comped us a drink, but after that we had a great dinner!

   This was our first date night away from our toddler, and we were excited to try somewhere new. We wanted to take our time and enjoy our evening. The server notified us she was new so she had to run back and forth asking a lot of questions - I would address this as a management problem and as a new restaurant you should have your staff well trained and to know the menu. We ordered the tortilla soup and nachos to start, we specified we wanted these as our appetizers and to come out first, and then our entrees were the fish tacos and short rib. We probably only waited 10 -15ish minutes and our food came out.. all of it at the same time. The tortillas in my soup were already extremely soggy. We tried to go between the entrees and nachos, but wanted our entrees while they were hot, which left the nachos getting soggy and cold. The short rib was extremely overdone and like beef jerky. Extremely unimpressed. The fish tacos had way too much slaw for the amount of fish, however, the taste was great. I got a Moscow mule, and my husband got a glass of Malbec, and both were very good. When I asked about desserts, our waitress listed them with no description instead of bringing a menu. So when I asked questions she had to go back and ask the kitchen again. I specifically asked if the chocolate tort had anything on it like fruit or anything and the waitresses reply after asking the kitchen was "the kitchen said sometimes if they have fruit they might put it on." So I kept it simple and ordered the churros, they were nothing special, pretty bland, and the chocolate sauce was not good. We were so unimpressed, we may give them a second chance after they've had time to get their stuff together but wow..currently I would not recommend to anyone. If I was management I would be trying to run a tighter ship. I worked in the food industry for many years and see many holes if they expect to make it going forward.

   Food is very good, their salsa is fairly sweet. But their guacamole was phenomenal, a couple of potent beverages. Service was great!

   Service was excellent! Several gluten free options but it would be great in the future to have an option to have tortilla chips that weren’t at risk for cross contamination. Food was a bit spicy.

   Service is quick which is a good thing if you need a quick bite to eat. We were on a date night and told the waitress that and that we wanted to take our time. Unfortunately, we were seated and finished within 30 minutes. The shrimp tacos were great! The house salsa has a kick to it, so be careful if you don’t like spices.

   We went for my Birthday Sunday evening on December 1st. It wasn’t busy and the service and food were very good. I really enjoyed my time. You have to try the hummingbird margarita. So delicious.

   When we walked in it smelled strongly of fish and the music was quite loud. Table was nice and a bit quieter in the back corner. Margs and food were nothing special. The tacos seemed to be better than the other entrees. Drinks were fine, but not great. I was hoping for a better cocktail for the price. Service was ok. Overall…..probably won’t go back. Plenty of authentic Mexican restaurants with better menus and service.

   Great new addition in the Steel District, and to DT Sioux Falls overall. Food and drinks were wonderful and fairly priced. Probably wouldn’t bring picky eaters as the menu might be limiting. Atmosphere is wonderful. Can’t wait to go back! Highly recommend the Flor de Jalisco cocktail.
