    Everything was fantastic. The only thing that might be helpful is on the menu, I had to ask the waiter how many tacos were included in one order. I would be a bit more helpful if this was shown on the menu, as I was trying to split these orders with my party.

    service was overall good. appetizer - shrimp tostada came after our entree which was a fail and wasn’t worth the price. drinks were solid and burgers were tasty. Loud in there.

    Arepas and coconut shrimp tacos were fire. Empanadas are decent. We didn’t love the chicken meatball skewers. It’s always a vibe in there.
