    Prawns on a rock were overcooked. Couldn't get them off the hot rock fast enough. By the time I did, they were tough and overdone. I've never had a pie pastry that was so tough you were served a steak knife to cut it. ??? We just ate the ice cream and scooped out the middle of the dessert. Our waiter who started off strong, disappeared in the middle of our meal, and we never saw him again. Weird. We finished our meal with bus people serving us. What the heck? Ambiance was great, but we won't go back.

    This was my first time to go to the Mexican and what a great experience. This was a business dinner with some new clients during the home furnishings market. It’s close to the market center so it made it very convenient. The food and service are fantastic. This definitely won’t be my last time to dine in there.

    Place is overpriced and the quality of the food feels stripped away. My bf didn’t like the place or food either. We are glad for the experience and learning lesson however I wouldn’t recommend this place to any of my friends or family. Yes, the place has a nice atmosphere. Yes this place is good for a certain class - with that said, I’m fine going to taqueria temo anytime.

    I celebrated my birthday and had Dom as our server. He was very knowledgeable and friendly. His assistant Luis was also very nice and the two made a great team.
