It was a really good place and pretty but my friend got a mocktail and they charged her the cocktail price of 16.00 which we were shocked and my friend found hair in her food and they brought a new one out quick but didn’t comp her for her extra side or anything which we were kind of shocked about. She got the octopus but with an extra side and thought since there was hair in it they would comp her the extra side or something but nothing so it was a nice place to go but if getting a mocktail they will charge alcohol price and not a cheaper price and won’t adjust prices

A completely weird dining experience. Of the things we ordered, three were not available. What we did order was beyond mediocre. Never recommending and never returning. If you're expecting Mexican or Spanish food, lower your expectations.

It was not crowed for a Saturday night. We sat at the bar. The bartender was very attentive. The food came out fast. The corn rice ball were good. Definitely needed the sauce. Not very moist. The 1/2 baked Chicken- presentation was nice. Plenty of Vegetables. Over all the chicken was over cooked and dry. At 10pm a DJ started. It got very loud and this particular DJ was ok. Each week is a different DJ, so you won’t know if you will like the music they spin or not. Another plus about this place is the kitchen is open. Till 11:30 on Saturdays. That hard to find in this area.
