We were greeted immediately with a welcoming smile and seated at a high top as we had requested in our reservation. Our server was new but confident as he asked for our drink & appetizer order. The drinks were fantastic and the appetizers of ceviche & queso flameado were really good. We ordered another round of drinks and dinner of chicken mole enchiladas. The mole is perfectly sweet with a hint of heat and the food was fresh and served hot. We really enjoyed our dining experience and will definitely visit again.
