    Fort Collins has been in need of an upscale, fun, vibrant restaurant downtown with an innovative menu! Our dinner was excellent, really enjoyed the variety offered, and we are both looking forward to returning - all in all, a great evening out!

    This is my second go around as decided to give it another shot after poor service and underwhelmed first experience. Not sure what changes the owners want to make- but service is the area for growth. We waited a full 15 min after sitting down for anyone to come check in and offer a drink even though our table was in full view of the hostess stand where two people were just hanging around. Then our appetizer came out and we had no silverware or napkins. It’s these things that make an overall eating mid range. The food- excellent and interesting. Little pricey for portions but tasty. I’m rooting for this place to figure it all out as the food and atmosphere is good but overall experience still lacking for price.

    The menu was very difficult since it was all in Spanish. We had to constantly have our server translate. The margaritas were very weak, and the wine pours very small. Only one vegetarian entree was available. Food for the most part was ok but waaaaaaay overpriced and small portions. There was no option on the tip screen to pay 20%, the norm these days. The women's bathroom barely had lighting, making it difficult to see. The restaurant interior was the highlight of the visit. We had high hopes for this new restaurant and were looking forward to a yummy, filling Mexican dinner. All 6 of us, upon leaving, said we would never return and wonder how this restaurant will make it in the long term.

    Second visit, not as good as the first time. The sea bass ceviche was missing the subtle heat. The shrimp ceviche was completely rare, not "cooked" with citrus at all. They brought out our mains before we had finished our appetizers. Portion size on the duck tacos had shrunk. The need to work out some kinks in food timing, and food prep.

    Wonderful and creative meal with great service. Foody experience with delicious meat and seafood options with stellar cocktails and amazingly deep tequila menu. Great addition to Fort Collins scene!

    The food was unique and exceeded expectations. The guac with pork belly is what I hope to dream about tonight. The cocktails were a treat that forced me out of my normal drink routine in the best way possible.

    First time visit and it won’t be our last! Excellent service! We had the ceviche which was excellent with a subtle spice. We also had the duck tacos, which were stuffed with meat, delicious!
