I am a Chef that has been in the industry for 30+ years and also Mexican American. This family is crushing it! The service was outstanding my only feedback is that it was hard to hear one of the more soft spoken servers, to be fair I do ware hearing aides so take that with a grain of salt. The oysters with tart apple on top was a great combination. All of the food was really well balanced and cooked to perfection. We ate all of the vegetarian dishes because my whole family is vegetarian except me.The chef is super talented and should be very proud of what they doing. The desserts were fantastic as well. An added plus overall is that when you ask about a wine that is by the glass they offer you a taste first, not everyone does this and is greatly appreciated. We will be back for sure!
