    Fantastic service by Aracely! Phenomenal drinks with excellent presentation. We had the ceviche and the dos tipos de cuidado which were both out of this world. Amazing flavor. Exciting atmosphere with great entertainment.

    La comida deliciosa pero el servicio al cliente, la atención por ser una ocacion especial (como el cumpleaños) no fueron para nada atentos desde que hice la reserva hasta que nos fuimos, no es nada especial, no recomendaría el lugar para hacer una actividad de estas (cumpleaños) en especial si es para un hombre, pero si es para pasar el rato de manera social está perfecta

    Highly disappointed in our experience. Social media definitely gives off a different experience. We had a party of 18 and were sat at different tables making it hard to mingle with our group. Prices are HIGH for the quality and quantity of food you receive. We had 5 chicken Alfredo’s and every pasta chicken was burnt. 5 taco dinners, beans and rice and tacos warm/cold. If you cannot accommodate a big party you should not offer it. We specified we were there for a birthday. Nothing was personalized like they show on IG. We also did not get the hyped birthday celebration that others tables did. This place is good for photo ops. Food is basic prices are overrated. What restaurant does not have a diet pop option for customers? What Latin restaurant does not have salsa? And why do they give you a small bowl of chips for guac? Very disappointed and would not recommend this place or return.

    My wife and I enjoyed the overall experience, food was delicious, ambiance was great and the music was an added bonus. The only minor I would be the tables for a party of 2 being so close to one another. Maybe having a little more space between tables would be better, but other than that we were very much happy. We will definitely be back.
