    Despite having a reservation we were given a very small two table even though couples were seated at four setters both before and after we were seated. Very cramped for multiple plates. Assessed the liquor tax rate on an entree. The food was good to very good (octopus was flavorful but tough). Interesting wine list of Baja wines, but overpriced (cheapest glass of red was $16).

    I was extremely pleased with this choice of restaurant for my dad’s birthday! The food was delicious! Everything was so good! We tried the Brussel sprouts, the aguachile, and the birria pizza 😍 the ribeye and scallops were perfection and the hospitality was amazing. The manager was super sweet and our server was great and attentive! I will definitely be recommending this place to all of my friends and I can’t wait to come back! The drinks were also really good and so was the Mac and cheese! You won’t regret coming here!

    Brussels sprouts and fish tacos were excellent! Can’t believe we didn’t go to this restaurant sooner. Food is outstanding.

    The food is great. Love sitting at the bar. The table service has been a little slow though. But will return for the food and drinks.
