This was an amazing experience. The wine pairings were excellent and I didn’t realize there were so many good Mexican wines of this high caliber in both red and white. I’m vegetarian and so I was not full after this meal but my wife and her brother do eat meat and they were stuffed. A filet mignon is more filling than the same size piece of eggplant. So the value for a vegetarian was not as good as other high end tasting meals that I have had. But the taste of the food, the presentation, the wait staff, the ambience of the restaurant, even the bathrooms were awesome.

Incredible experience - the ambience was perfect and the restaurant is beautiful, a ton of greenery. The food was amazing, so unique and the flavors were layered. Our server, Oriele, was incredibly knowledgeable, warm and funny. Even though the restaurant filled in, it still felt very intimate, so it made for a very memorable date night for my husband and I.

I don’t know where to start. The entrance is absolutely beautiful, which is just the icing. The aesthetic is amazing from ceiling to floor. The food was outstanding get the Shrimp and king crab appetizers you will not be disappointed. It’s not cheap but well worth every dollar/peso. I’ll be back soon.

Great meal and ambiance w show at 9pm and 10pm. Loved Greek salad and Octopus dinner. Would suggest doing shots rather than cocktails as it comes with lively presentation (and the martinis weren't that great). Service was excellent
