    One of the best Mexican restaurants in the Metuchen area. Service: Hostess and servers were welcoming and really provided great service. Even with the pressure of the Valentine’s Day crowd they kept their cool and really kept the operation moving and provided top service. We didn’t feel rushed but they were able to keep us sitting the 2 hr max time slot during for this holiday. Food and cocktails: Sooo delicious. There was nothing we ordered that wasn’t delicious and really well made. The cocktails were perfect. The right mix. Thank you for the great cooks and bartenders. Atmosphere: Super cool. Loved the artwork at the bar. They had entertainment that wasn’t overly loud but really drew our attention. Just a fun place to be on a Friday night. I’ll definitely be back and if you’re in the area you should check it out as well.

    If you’re a fan of seafood, this place is an absolute must-visit! The seafood boil is hands down the star of the show, everything is perfectly seasoned and cooked to perfection. The shrimp are plump and juicy, the crab legs are tender and sweet. What really sets this spot apart, though, is the seasoning, they have the perfect balance of spice and flavor, and you can customize the heat level to your liking. The portions are generous, so it’s perfect for sharing. The sides, like the garlic noodles and shrimp tacos are so delicious. The staff is friendly and attentive, making the whole experience feel special.
