We had a great time here! The guacamole is fresh and to die for. All of the food we had was truly outstanding. Will be back anytime we’re in town.

I love this place. The decor is beautiful and the staff are wonderful. This time the food wasn’t quite as great as usual - it was a quiet stormy day to be fair - but we still enjoyed it. The food is delicious and well presented. Lots of really vibrant flavours and a nice mix of tastes. The small plates are quite small for the price but tasty.

Excellent food, outstanding service, reasonably priced! The menu had an extensive selection of authentic dishes, made from fresh and local ingredients. Best fish tacos ever. The eclectic decor provides a delightful collection of eye candy throughout your dining experience. You simply must eat here.
