    This place knows how to do Mexican food. Cannot fault anything about the restaurant. Our waiter was extremely nice and helpful with providing us food recommendations and how many dishes to get for a starter & main. I’d recommend the guacamole and chips, the croquettes and the pork tostado to start, they were 10/10. For mains we had the duck, chicken and fish tacos to share and they were so so yum! Again this place know how to make a taco! Overall, I will be returning to this place and I have recommended on to other friends and family.

    This was our first restaurant on our trip to Dublin and we absolutely loved it! We were able to get one of the last reservations available for the next 2 weeks and had dinner at 9pm. We were greeted and sat immediately and service was wonderful. My partner and I both ordered an espresso martini and it was delicious. We then split the fish and chips for our main entree and it was incredible! For a side, we ordered the Brussel sprouts and roasted carrots and those were both phenomenal. 10/10 highly recommend!
