Our server was overwhelmed attending to many tables that in some instances she forgot about us! The portions are in the small side for the prices! Overall was good but honestly i dont think i will be going back . Another thing stop hiding the tip as “service charge” and expect more tips!

Brickell

About the restaurant

The decoration of the restaurant has been carefully selected from the most important craftsmen of Mexico. We enjoy its colors, within the geometry of Mexican Art Deco architecture; framing through its brilliant black and golden colors the splendor of its magic.
With the leading role, we have our monumental bars along with one of the larges tequila and mezcal selection in town and our bar manager created delicious and sophisticate cocktails.
Every cantina is a cultural expression of the place where it is found.
Gastronomy-wise, we have an extensive menu of Mexican Cuisine dishes, offering representative dishes of each state of the country, with traditional techniques and recipes (handmade tortilla, sauces made in a molcajete ), along with avant-garde techniques such as vacuum cooking, spherification, foam, etc. We constantly update our menu and the chef’s recommendations with new and top quality ingredients.

ONLY our Brunch Menu served Sundays between 12:30PM-4PM

It was a really cool experience. The life band was out of this world, very talented. The food was good too. I ordered a drink that I did not like and when I return it, they said they will still charge me is the only thing But it was a fun experience overall.
