    Very upscale and trendy Mexican restaurant with interesting menu and good cocktails. The guac is great. Octopus appetizer was very oddly prepared and not good - very thinly sliced and fried and dry/rubbery - had been expecting a nice “arm”. Otherwise, the entrees were very good. We ordered a second round of drinks and our waiter forgot to bring them; we had to ask.

    Great experience from the beginning. Valet was very nice. The host was very polite and the servers were very good about suggesting items, making sure the entire night was great and also helped us celebrate our anniversary!

    The food at this restaurant is terrible and overpriced. The doorman was extremely rude. Service was very good, but did not make up for the quality and price of food. There are so many other good restaurants in Dallas, including Mexican restaurants, such that there is no need to return to this one.

    Such a great restaurant and experience. From the minute you pull up you feel special. The greeting at check in is always warm and the service at the table from multiple servers is just outstanding. Food is inventive and delicious. Atmosphere and vibe is energetic and upscale. The only thing I can say is I have probably been here too much and know the menu by heart. Might be time for the chef to add a few new items. Great dinner for six last night as always.
