    This restaurant offers a delightful dining experience before or after a performance at BAM. It’s a few blocks from BAM. There is outdoor seating. We started with spicy guacamole while the mixed ceviche was a hit with our granddaughter, who couldn't get enough of it (it wasn't quite to my taste). Our granddaughter enjoyed her steak tacos, and my pork tostada—which came as a pair—was delicious. My husband's mixed tacos were also delicious. The atmosphere is charming and the staff are attentive. We recommend this place for a delicious meal in a cozy space.

    We went with a package from Fever and were not discriminated against at all for having a voucher. The food filled us up just right and our bottomless mimosas did its job! The server even switched it up a bit and added a hint of cranberry towards the end for a splash of a new taste. My partner and I truly enjoyed ourselves and would definitely go back with or without the voucher.
