    I really enjoyed this place. I had heard a lot of different views but it was delicious. It’s NOT traditional. It’s a take on a cuisine. The flavors are really savory and well paired. I had the elotes, aquacates tacos and a paloma. Tres leches for dessert. Enjoyed every bite of every dish.

    Great food and drinks! The decor and ambience is really cool kind of feels like you’re in Tulum/Mexico city. The lighting is kind of weird but depending on what table you’re sitting at. Otherwise great spot for friends or a date.

    It took over 20 minutes to get a margarita delivered. Service was very slow and food wasn’t up to usual quality

    This is the second time dining here and I experienced the same issue that I experienced the first time. Service… there were two guys working the host stand, one person pouring water, two others bringing food out, but ONLY ONE waitress taking orders and closing out tabs for 10 tables. I spent more time looking around trying to get my waitress’ attention than I did actually enjoying dinner with my family. Searching for, and waving staff down is the last thing I want to do at dinner. It’s not the waitress’ fault, rather whoever is managing the staff.
