    All of the items we ordered were excellent. The background music was way too loud where it was difficult to hear the waiter and carryon a conversation with our guests!

    Steak and eggs-steak undercooked and hard to chew, good flavor though. Asked for salsa but never received it. Guacamole was fresh and best thing we ate. Migas were ok, nothing special. Overall, cool environment, but food was just ok.

    We had brunch and ordered the huevos rancheros and breakfast tacos. They had a nice kick to it and were flavorful. The service was wonderful, and our waitress was helpful in answering our questions about the menu.

    The food was terrible and cold! Apparently they have changed the menu form when it first opened! And it’s not a good one! Also all their servings were itty bitty compared to before when they first opened! So disappointed! Will never return and DO NOT Recommend!

    This was our very first time, trying to experience new restaurants in San Antonio we made reservation two weeks in advance and was extremely excited. love the place, great location, beautiful atmosphere however my boyfriend order the steak and eggs meat was great, rice was good however beans were cold food took a little too long to be serve so I wonder if the beans were just sitting there, I end up getting the green chilaquiles they were good just not what I was expecting overall it was a nice brunch and beautiful place.

    Food was good, but the dish I went for was not on the new menu. Wouldn’t recommend coming later in the night. Our main server wasn’t the most attentive only refilled our water once. This was my first time coming on a Friday night and the DJ was really good, a nice surprise. Overall ok, I enjoyed my experiences better the previous times I came.

    Incredible first time experience here. The menu is small, but intentional. The staff is highly knowledgeable about the menu options and attentive. The food was exceptional, cooked well, seasoned perfectly. New favorite restaurant.
