    Food was so-so. It would have been nice if a description of the fish tacos were that the fish was deep fried. My wife did not eat any of it. Also, the crispy Brussel sprouts were very greasy. Loud music, and loud patrons, mad the ambience poor.

    The service and ambience were great. I wish I could say the same for the food. Literally some of those most bland Mexican I have ever had. I don’t know what else to say. Use some seasoning. As a result, it made everything seem overpriced.

    I ate here one evening and had a very amazing experience, so I brought my friends here for a girls dinner. This experience wasn’t as great. I ordered three different drinks and hated them all. we sat at the bar even though I had a reservation, but they gave it away because I was 1 min late. Fair enough, I didn’t call to let them know. The bartender that night was a guy who wasn’t very attentive. I ordered skinny margaritas And when we complained about the margarita tasting like straight lime juice (there were literally four muddled limes in the rocks glass) he argued with us about “that’s how it’s supposed to be”. It was the worst skinny I’d ever had. So I ordered two other drinks which were all gross to me as well. We ended up getting a table and our server was amazing. The food was delicious. I want to give it another try, but the drinks need some work!

    Excelente la comida, la atención muy buena, fui el ultimo dia de mi estancia en Charleston y quedé sorprendida para mi fue el mejor de los restaurantes que comi en esta ciudad. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. Pedi un cup de sopa de tortilla estuvo genial es super picante por si no les gusta mucho enchilarse, luego pedi el street tacos buenismos. 10/10
