    The food and service were outstanding! You can get lost in all of the wonderful offerings in their store. Such a great idea to eat in such a lovely ambiance. Our food was beautifully plated and delicious. We opted to eat half our servings in order to try some of their desserts! We were not disappointed! And we got our leftovers packed away to eat later. This was a beautiful experience from start to finish... We will be back soon!

    Went for the prix fixe menu for our Valentine’s dinner. It was on the pricier side ($200+ pp including alc), but every aspect of the dinner was spectacular. Unexpectedly met with rose pedals on the table and a (optional) raspberry cocktail. All of their cocktails looked incredible on other tables, but we split a very nice Cab. All the courses were amazing, moderate amounts, but after four courses we were filled up. Wagyu tenderloin and carrot cake were 12/10. Will definitely be going back for a dinner with the regular menu in the near future. If you don’t mind the cost, then the Valentine’s dinner is a special date night experience.

    First time visit to Taco Guy and really enjoyed it. I had two of the specials - Mexican oysters and a shrimp/scallops cerviche dish. Very inventive and very delicious. I have found my new favorite Mexican restaurant. As for libations, I think they specialize in drinks as opposed to wine. Only 3 wines by the glass. The one I ordered - a Spanish Grenacha - came in a thin can, which took me (sort of a wine guy) by surprise. But, and here's the important point, I enjoyed it and had a second one! So, it's not the quantity but the quality that's important. I'm looking forward to going back again soon.
