Great food but the star of the show were the YUCA FRIES!!! Goodness gracious they were amazing! The chicken asada tacos were flavorful and delicious. The passion fruit margarita was well balanced and also delicious. One of the servers was rude and indifferent but thanks to another server for making our time enjoyable. Great music and overall a fun atmosphere.

This was my second time at this restaurant and it did not disappoint! The ambiance is always A1 but this time they decorated for Christmas and it was so nice. I will say this is a very lively loud restaurant so if you’re looking for something quiet, this might not be the place for you. The service is always great & the food and drinks are also very delicious.

It was delightful to the crisp atmosphere to the kind staff. Also accommodating me with the wheelchair and making the table work for me. And the food was delicious with every single bite. And I have to say the horchata ice cream was very good.

We had 8:15 reservations for 6 people. We weren’t seated until 9:10 and were then put at a table for 4 people. We were extremely tight. We were told numerous times our table was next or it was being set up but waited almost an hour. We were “compensated” with a bowl of Guac. Servers never cleared our appetizer plates before serving our main course. Food was fine. Management kept asking how everything was and we told them but did not seem to care. This seemed to be the issue for most people there. Everyone was complaining about their reservations. This restaurant seems to take reservations but apparently can’t keep them. No need to go back.
