   Very pleasant experience. Fusion mexican-american food with a few authentic Mexican dishes. All delicious. Excellent mezcal choices with a few premium tequilas. Promp and courteous service. I reserved again for the next day.

   We came for my boyfriend’s bday. We rented one of the TopGolf suites (they only have 2). The food was delicious, the salsa was def different than at your traditional Mexican restaurant but it was still good. The server took a while to come greet us (not sure if it’s because we were in the suite) and then mins later a different server came to greet us and take our order but we told him someone already came by (unorganized). Then it took him a while again just to bring us cups and silverware. We made sure to put all our food and drink order right away as we figured it’d be a while before he would come back. The golf/sport simulator malfunctioned so we had to wait for mgmt to come fix it (and you’re timed, but the mgr was nice enough to extend our time by 10mins), the sofas are a bit worn, and there was a hole in the carpet where you stand to play. Seems like the simulator suites were last thought or not maintained very well. If they were to get those suites RIGHT, it would’ve been an amazing experience. All this to say just go for the food. Skip the simulator suites.

   Perfect musical vibe. The price is slightly above average but is surpassed by the flavor.
