    It was smooth and easy getting seated with our reservations. This was our 2nd visit. We went for my husband’s birthday/before concert fun! Their free birthday, Churro/ice cream dessert was yummy! All of our tables food was excellent! We ate and drank: Lime Fajitas , Enchilada Stack, Beef Tacos (big shells), burrito (big), Blood Orange Margarita, Jumbo Margarita, and Pink Sour Drop Martini.

    The staff was friendly, and very helpful. The food was very good and had both vegetarian and gluten free options so all in our party could eat in comfort.

    This was the perfect choice for dinner with friends before the Robert Earl Keen concert at the House of Blues. Thanks to Arturo for making our dining experience even more special.

    The food was very bland—salmon tacos, chicken tacos. Salsa was delicious. Servers were polite and attentive. Go for the service but definitely not the food.
