Tacos are excellent!! Drinks are mid. Server wasn’t very attentive and missed one of our appetizer orders and didn’t check on us after receiving our food, but maybe that’s just a cultural difference. Overall, the space is open, airy, easy and had great tacos :)

Food was fantastic, everything. Drinks, were out of this world delicious. Service was fabulous too. Will definitely be coming back. Today actually lol. Make a visit, you won’t regret it. They have a second story, ask to sit there if you don’t like the street side sitting. Love this place. Tacos great, and they give you a bunch of sauces to experiment with.

Reserve a las 9pm en terraza y al llegar me dicen que la terraza trabaja solo hasta las 9. pedí un guacamole y a los 20 min me dicen que ya no les quedaba, el menú de taco es solo un taco pequeño (pero de buen sabor), la Cerveza que me trajeron estaba caliente, los chicos que atienden estaban apurados en irse, así que tuve que comer corriendo y a los 20 minutos terminé, la cena más rápida que he tenido, no recomiendo el lugar

¡Simplemente espectacular! Este restaurante de mariscos ofrece una experiencia inigualable. El sabor de cada platillo es exquisito, claramente preparado con ingredientes frescos y mucho cuidado. El ambiente es encantador, ideal tanto para una comida relajada como para una ocasión especial. El servicio fue excepcional: atentos, amables y siempre con una sonrisa. Nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos desde el primer momento. Sin duda, volveremos pronto. ¡Altamente recomendado!

Speravamo in qualcosa di meglio date le recensioni. Ma abbiamo trovato pesce decongelato e gamberi cotti troppo. Insomma non ci torneremo.

Great food —medicore service What blew me away —when i requested rice instead of fries to go with my fish of the day —the restaurant told me they could not do it as the rice was portioned to be served ONLY with the shrimp! Really?? Incredulous that the chef was so inflexible on a simple diner request Probably will not go here again —there are numerous good restaurants in the area
