    Our server, Fidel was awesome and attentive. He helped up decide our drinks and meal. The calamari was delectable. The quesabirria was savory but not salty and the sauce had just the right amount of heat like a fancy French dip but with much more flavor. The carne asada with vegetables was delicious with lots of flavors as well. The Don Fulano imperial extra añejo was my favorite. It was a great way to celebrate my birthday!

    The food was good and price was good. I guess the reason I put 4 instead of 5 is because they did not acknowledge my sister's birthday even though when I made reservation I had stated it was for an occasion and it was for a birthday. When I let the waiter know my disappointment in no acknowledgement, she just smiled and didn't really care so now it was twice that it was not acknowledged. Sad but whatever moving o to other restaurants that make guests feel good.
