    Excellent, however I would recommend not ordering beer by the pitcher. Mexican beer by the pitcher will not hold body.

    It was a birthday and they really did not do much to celebrate it after telling the server. They should be more like other restaurants and provide a dessert with a candle.

    Our waitress was subpar. This was our 3rd visit and our least favorite for sure. She was clearing plates and bringing a dessert menu when 1/2 our party of six was actively still eating dinner and she had just delivered cocktails.

    The service was unbelievably slow, and there was hardly anyone there. It took over 30 minutes to get our first drink.

    The food is unfailingly great - start with the guacamole and queso flameado, tuna tostada, esquires, wings… the mains and desserts were equally great - we especially loved Mexican tiramisu and pumpkin cheesecake.

    Food was great as usual. I always appreciate their knowledge and ability to accommodate dietary restrictions. The service was mediocre at best. She took our order and that was about it. Hence, four stars vs. five.
