parties of 1 to 2 guests - 1 hour 45 minutes .
2 to 4 guests - 2 hours .
5 guests and up - 2.5 hours .

Parties of 5 and larger must call the restaurant to reserve, as a credit card hold will be required.

    Went in solo dolo and the service was very good and very personable. A couple of other servers came by and started sparking conversation and that was great. The food was absolutely delicious and the drinks. I heard about this place from my brother who is a excellent cook and chef, drove here from North Richland hills which is about an hour away. Absolutely recommend coming here. Thanks.

    Always always fantastic! Dallas top 3! Mata provided incredible guidance and rounded the whole experience! The only one recommendation is to get there early because parking can be tough

    The food is hands down some of the best food I’ve had in Dallas. If you are considering dining here, just do it!! The moment I was greeted by the lovely Maitre d’ to the bill coming the experience was 10/10. I only wish we had more room to try more, but that just means we will have to come back :)

    Every bite was outstanding! All items coursed out to perfection. Carrots & mole appetizer was my absolute favorite bite of the evening, favorite cocktail was the Tight Quarters. Always ask Maya for any food or drink recommendations.
