It was great vibes and loved the ambiance and the servers were great. It started getting louder towards night time and it was fun. The food wasn’t the top of my list, it could need a little bit of seasoning. but everything else made up for it.

Three of us went for winterlicious, we got to pick 4 different courses. Guacamole n chips, ribs, 2 tacos and churros is what I got. The ribs were delicious, fish tacos had a lot of cabbage and not enough fish but it was still tasty. The server was great. Overall a good experience.
