    Definitely did not expect the food to be as tasty and amazing as it was, loved the flavors and how they all mingled together. The chips and salsa are so addicting, the drinks as well. My only issue was the fact that we weren’t offered water, but the tables around us did. We had to ask our waiter to bring us water. Other than that, everything was great 10/10
