This place is amazing! Wonderful service, amazing food, and a perfect atmosphere! Would recommend this restaurant to anyone!

Fabulous food and atmosphere!! Loved all the taco options, so fun!!
Took at least 7 minutes to get water and another 7 to get cocktails. We felt invisible for that first bit: numerous waiters and waitresses walked by w/o noticing or caring about our empty water glasses. Even if we were not his/her section,it's annoying when other tables that arrived after us have water etc. That is, tell the staff that they have someone waiting. food was ok but not worth the price (and either really bland or really spicy) As yelpers have mentioned it is a bit loud and the service is a bit slow (as we experie... read more
