    We always love our dinner. A couple things last night were a little off with our waitress and it was really cold sitting by the windows, although we like sitting there, just wish it wasn't so cold last night. The margs are delicious, especially the Basil Cucumber :O) The guacamole and street corn is always a favorite starter. The halibut is to die for. Definitely recommend that. My husband and one of our friends had the Chicharron De Filete. They liked it and gobbled it right down. My girlfriend got the Carne Asada Tacos and loved them. BUT you cannot leave without getting an order of the Churros. So Good!!

    Had dinner for daughters birthday. Appetizers and drinks were delicious. Main dishes needed a little bit of work, some dishes needed more flavor and attention to details was lacking. Received my Cochinita Pibil, was expecting more picked red onions but barely had any. Also they forgot my tortillas and was half way done with main dish before they arrived. Might go back to give it a second chance, Maybe.
