    Nice cosy palace to have a dinner date but something is missing, maybe a entertainment i.e pianist, guitarist or even mellow singer to hype up the guests.

    After our order was taken, the waiter left us for an hour. We were out of water, had to track him down for the check… before ordering we asked if the barria was a quesadilla - he said yes. It wasn’t. In the taco I got, there was a hair baked into the tortilla. Lastly, we reserved the Valentine’s Day experience which showed the tortillas as pink for Valentine’s Day, but they were not pink - not a huge deal, but we had hyped our daughter up to get pink tacos.

    Seated too close to another table similar to a high school cafeteria. Had to wave down an employee to get chips/salsa as patrons seated after us were  enjoying theirs. Disappointed this time as my special requests for my wife’s birthday were ignored or overlooked. We have been several times but this most recent was not enjoyable.

    Great service, ridiculously delicious tacos and some of the tastiest margs in SD. The shrimp mango ceviche is a must. Pricey, and a little loud. Lots of families w kids when I was there, so it doesn’t have a super cool, hotspot sort of vibe but all in all a great meal and a good time.

    Great food. Great deals on Taco Tuesday. I can’t really justify coming here on any other day though. Tacos are so pricey. They range anywhere from $10-$17, for one taco! It’s good, but hard to justify.
