    It was delightful to the crisp atmosphere to the kind staff. Also accommodating me with the wheelchair and making the table work for me. And the food was delicious with every single bite. And I have to say the horchata ice cream was very good.

    We had 8:15 reservations for 6 people. We weren’t seated until 9:10 and were then put at a table for 4 people. We were extremely tight. We were told numerous times our table was next or it was being set up but waited almost an hour. We were “compensated” with a bowl of Guac. Servers never cleared our appetizer plates before serving our main course. Food was fine. Management kept asking how everything was and we told them but did not seem to care. This seemed to be the issue for most people there. Everyone was complaining about their reservations. This restaurant seems to take reservations but apparently can’t keep them. No need to go back.

    First of all it's nice that there's a parking garage for you to park Your vehicle, the restaurant will validate it you're ticket. I made reservations ahead of time for 4 people to celebrate my daughter 21st birthday We went to sit at our table. The table was so small. 4 plates could not fit comfortably. They were stacked up against each other. We ordered entrees, drinks and food and everything was piled up on the table. It was absolutely the worst experience. We couldn't even enjoy our food cause we had to. Eat it as fast as it came. So we can have more room on the table. We also ordered a plank of the tequila . And it was just awful how everything was cramped up. In that small table, we ordered shrimp seviche which it didn't come with tostadas where do you eat seviche without tostadas plus it was made with cherry tomatoes, seviche does not come with cherry tomatoes. They also gave us totadas with salsa never Heard a place giving tostadas instead of chips with your salsa This is not an authentic Mexican restaurant.None of the food was Really authentic Mexican food.It's a taxmex!!! It's more like for white people who don't like their food seasoned well and with a lot of herbs.There's a lot of things missing.flavorless food This is a textmax restaurant, not an authentic Mexican restaurant. I will not be going here again. Was there for my first time? Didn't really enjoy it, but the service was absolutely incredible. the waitress was so sweet.
