Delicious food in a lively environment! Seating is really tight and felt a bit claustrophobic at times. The food is served family style and our waitress recommended 2-3 dishes per person. We ended up ordering more like 1-2 dishes per person and still had plenty of food. Definitely small plates but everything was delicious!

What an amazing family owned Mexican restaurant! We were greeted with warmth and told they would definitely find us a table. The place was busy and they asked if we had made reservations. We had not, and we started at the bar with a trio of salsas and bean dip. All yummy! We also got the margarita flight which was really fun! You get to pick four flavors. Once we got to our table, it was refreshing to see typical items and new items that are not typical on the menu. The food was fresh and delicious. The people working were personable and kind. I cannot say enough about this place. We will be back!
