    We had a horrible waiter. He forgot drinks. Forgot to take my husbands order. Didn’t clear our table. Horrible service.

    I’m not one to leave reviews but we absolutely loved this place! Food was incredible. Good ambiance. We started off with a ceviche which was perfection in terms of taste, and the portion was larger than what I expected. Which is a good thing! As a main, I got the filet mignon with mole and I had no idea mole could taste that good with steak. I was pleasantly surprised and will definitely be back soon!

    The tortillas were stale? The sauce applied to the chicken was almost cold. The green beans were without spice or taste. It was our anniversary and they gave us “complimentary” drinks (sweet wine) and then tried to charge us for them?? Alas -

    Service was amazing!! Our server was on top of everything. Food however is a different story. Nothing was truly consistent. The Guac is not $20 worthy. Main courses were just not what they could have been. The only thing we found to be consistent was the ceviche. Great flavor and taste all around.

    Food and drinks were fantastic! The hamachi tiradito is a must, as well as the flan.

    Great service, great atmosphere, great drinks! We ordered the ceviche, guacamole, mole Filet, and Salmon. All the food was good and cooked to the right temperature. I really liked the ceviche. I feel like it was a little over priced, but it was a great experience. The staff was really attentive and that is hard to find at restaurants these days. I would go back.

    The food was very delicious, but somewhat overpriced and under-salted. The service could have been better - we asked for the red snapper ceviche, but our waiter brought us the red snapper entrée and charged us for it without correcting the mistake. Overall the experience was good, but disappointing service.
