   Hostess said open table reservation did not matter. They were seating over the phone reservations. We waited around an hour to be seated- with a reservation. Had to ask multiple times for plates and silverware. Mid food, this place is for the IG not the service or food.

   I had reservations for 2 on Valentines Day, however got a table for 4. We ordered Alcohol drinks and got juice instead then we ordered food and they brought us the order of the table next to us. Then we waited a couple more minutes and they brought us the wrong food again in this case was the other side of our table (mind you we got there 15 minutes before the table on the left and 30 minutes and the right) yet we were still waiting on our food, finally our food arrived but didn’t get exactly as we ordered. So we’re like ok I get it it’s a busy day for them will let it go and just it what we got. Then the table next to us ordered another round and they brought us the order of the table next to us (again) THE FOOD WAS DELICIOUS 100%!!!!! But what killed it for us was the repeated wrong orders!!! All though the food was great & the music im not sure about going back and getting the wrong order. I was embarrassed with my husband because I wanted to surprise him with a New Great spot for our Anniversary Date, but we keep passing out the food or alcohol drinks to the right or left tables the entire time we were there. Not sure if the tables had numbers or not but that could have helped out for the orders not to get mixed. At the time we asked for the check they took a while to bring it and unfortunately they brought it in when I was in the restroom and my husband had payed already I didn’t get the chance to check if we were billed correctly (my husband NEVER checks receipts) This was our Personal experience, First time going and POSSIBLY LAST.

   We celebrated my mom's 80th birthday dinner and it was the perfect place to celebrate! The margarita pitchers were delicious and generous! The food was outstanding. The service was impeccable, friendly, speedy, and super fun!!! The music was hip and my mother loved it. Their hospitality was unmatched. We are definitely going to be repeat customers.

   Terrible service, watched a costumer grab limes from the buffet with his bare hands. After informing the waiter he did NOTHING, didn’t change the limes or take any action to remove the contaminated food. They checked on us twice maybe during our stay…Will never be returning.

   Amazing food and great experience. We had bunch of 10 yr olds as well with us. Some the music videos were not appropriate but they obliged and put on game for us. Drinks were amazing as well. I would highly recommend it.

   Fantastic food! Not a good choice for a business meeting due to noise level. But overall a great place for a fun night out.

   I had a reservation. When me and my group walked in, we were the first in line. Others began to arrive shortly after. Red Flag #1: The host walked around us and asked the group behind us their party size, then took them to a table. I asked why we were skipped and advised we had a reservation. Red Flag #2: Not only did our waitress not greet us, she tried to rush us to order, and even tried to say she would come back. Red Flag #3: After our orders were taken, that was the last time our waitress came to our table. The servers brought our food, and no one else came by our table the rest of our visit. We were there for almost 2 hours. We were never asked if we wanted refills, another round of drinks, do we want dessert, or were we ready for our check. Eventually, we asked for a manager. When he came he tried to defend her saying that she was busy. We were sitting close to the kitchen and can clearly see that she had plenty of opportunities to come check on us. Regardless of how busy she supposedly was, that is no excuse to never check on a table. This may have not been the case, but we were the only black people in the whole restaurant. We felt mistreated. The tables next to us have been served and have already left. Why were we still sitting there? How come no one's even brought us a check? For the inconvenience, the manager tried to offer us drinks. We declined and asked for a discount on our bill. To be honest, it should have been free. After talking to us, we saw the manager go and speak with the waitress. Why was she laughing? So disrespectful. Our complaint was not taken serious. We will never go back there again.
