We had a party of 6. We made a reservation last minute, and they were able to accommodate us. We were seated right away, and the service was great! The tableside guacamole was 10/10. The rib-eye tacos were fantastic, and everyone enjoyed what they got. The fried ice cream is a must try. Can't wait to go back from that guacamole!!
