The front of house was great to be honest, however the back of house sucked. The food was not freshly prepared, and my crab Enchiladas tasted spoiled. When I asked to replace the dish with shredded beef enchiladas, I was brought ground beef instead. Immediately we got our check and left. Don't waste your time or money here.

I only had the veggie stuff here because I was with a vegetarian. Had chile relleno, Corn tamale, cheese enchilada. They were all really good especially considering there was no meat. The guac was a little disappointing but the margarita was potent enough to make up for it. Great spot to sit but the only valet thing is a bit off putting. Favourite thing was probably the corn tamale dipped in the mole that was on the plate.

The food may not be for everyone, but it was prepared well and incredibly quickly. The portions are generous and the service is far better than anywhere I can remember eating recently. Everyone was super attentive and friendly from the valet to the host and busser. Our server was amazing and the bartender checked on us several times to make sure we didn't need anything. If you just want to be able to relax and know that everything will be tasty and flawless you need to give them a visit. I can't wait to go back when I have a lazy day.

Stopped by because a good friend recommended this place. We are from Arizona and were looking for a good place to eat, our friend told us about this place and we do not regret stopping by. Our server, Austin was nice and patient with us and recommended a few plates. Over all it was a good experience. the staff was very polite. The valet also helped recommended other places to visit and eat for our next few days which we appreciated.
